And a spinning optical drive would destroy a battery.

It seamed to me that the point of these is they don't "turn up the base". That would be the Beats line, which they are saying these are more balanced than.

Shatnered?

Yeah... Alderman always did look a bit too much like Earth for my comfort.

My son and I were playing stormtrooper vs Jedi a couple of days ago and I "shot" at him from point blank range. These are his exact words, "You missed, Dadda. You're a stormtrooper, silly."

Weather sucks. Not tropical, wintery. Just blegh.

Well, you don't have to "hack" an iPad to get it to work the way they "should". My iPad works just fine without jailbreaking, thank you very much.

A few things:

And chances are, Apple's going to keep the iPad 2 around when the iPad 3 gets announced. $299 for a 16GB iPad 2 isn't too bad a deal.

I really like timeline. I'm not a big privacy nut when it comes to Facebook. I also don't have much that I care if people know about me. People want to know where I lived when I was in college. Go right ahead. You wanna know who the first person I ever kissed was, I'd probably tell you if you asked me anyway. I kind…

Because textbook publishers are publishing to Android with tools that are competative with the iBooks Author and dirt cheap hardware has proven to be capable of offering a good user experience.

Well, only for high school texts today. What about a semester from now?

I can tell you that you're almost spot on for my experience, and that assumes that a student finishes in four years and doesn't change majors in the middle of things.

Well, out of those six classes not all of them are going to require textbooks, though. Electives like Band, Choir, Drama, Art, Shop, Weight Training, etc. don't require text books most of the time. Even a lot of core classes don't require text books as such. As best I remember, the classes I had to have text books for…

Glad to see Cornyn drop support! I know I'm not the only one who called, but I like to think I played a part. :)

Yeah, I use genius scan on my iPhone. With Photo Stream it's on my iPad anyway. For receipts and such I don't need ultra high-resolution photos. And if I need some photos scanned, I don't plan on doing it while on the road. I'd just use the scanner on my printer.

"used but the USAF..."

And... At least for my wife, angle of entry is a huge factor in pleasure.
