It's not about what phone is better. I'm talking about marketing.

You're right about the naming on the iPads. It looks like they're going to be gravitating towards "The New ____" going forward. As silly as it looks on paper, that's how a lot of people are going to refer to it in conversation. If you walk into a store and ask for "the new ___", the salespeople are gonna know what

If it's not the hardware, they can still get them on the software (if they insist on using the "rubber band" scrolling, etc. nearly exactly as implemented by Apple).

You can't really blame Apple (or any other company engaging in similar practices) for taking advantage of the current legal system. It's what's prudent and responsible to their shareholders.

Geezus, look at that unreadable list of unmemorable product names. This is REALLY why Apple is winning; they make their products easy to buy.

This is true, although I think in the case of lawsuits, the lawyers are just going after the "low-hanging fruit" (ie people who torrent using their home connection with their IP address in the clear). There are enough easy targets for them to go after that they probably won't bother with users who are smart enough to

Proxy browsing + seedbox torrenting + SFTP downloading = privacy, right?

That's fair... try out a short-URL expander add-on. I've got one for Firefox, and I'd bet that they're available for other browsers to. Anyways, here's the full link:

Pretty much any episode of Rejected Pitches is worth watching. Here are some more: http://bit.ly/S7QDNH

Conan O'Brien, yesterday: "It's a bad sign when you're worried that your candidate will be overshadowed by something that doesn't even have a shadow".

Heh. I used Safari for a LONG time... ultimately, the lure of Add-Ons for Firefox persuaded me to switch. I tried Safari again when they added support for extensions, but just found that they caused Safari to freeze up far too often. Beyond that, I'd probably switch to Chrome if they let users get rid of the

I recommend the "Kotaku Fix" extension/add-on for Chrome/Firefox. Puts the comments back to the old way: http://goo.gl/uKmRk

Rumor has it that Clint Eastwood will be the "surprise speaker" at the RNC. That ought to lock down the youth vote.

No, he's animatronic.

No problem. If I have to see an ad, I'd rather it be for an iPad accessory than for women's razors.

Blu-rays are 1080p, but you're right about broadcast.

I never quite understood why steroids are illegal (I mean, obviously they can be dangerous to the athlete, but I don't think that's why they're banning them). How is enhancing your body from the inside any different than improving your abilities using gadgets like this? None of it is natural. If you really want to

Ahem.

Great idea. I can't read at length on my iPad, but can read for hours on my E-Ink Sony Reader.

I'm assuming that they had to license the artwork from the Warhol estate... which makes me wonder if Warhol had to get permission from Campbell's to paint/sell the artwork in the first place.
