Still heartbroken about the original breakup of Bixler-Zavala's other, better band. No offense, but in a perfect world The Mars Volta never exist. I kind of look at the entire band as making the (middling) best of a terrible (awful, horrible!) situation.

Whitson, welcome back! When you left us, it left a hole in the Force.

Looks totally wonderful. So happy to get to return to that world.

I'm beginning to feel the same way. Here in Houston it seems like violent crime is on the rise the last few months. I kind of assume at some point I'll be a gun violence statistic. I still oppose gun proliferation, though, and mostly for this reason: I DO believe that guns, utilised properly, can be a deterrent to…

The $70 prepaid monthly (everything unlimited and un-throttled) HSPA+ on T-Mobile with the N4 is just RIDICULOUS. In a fully deployed area you'll pull in excess of 20 down/6 up, with LTE-like latency. AND T-Mobile's rolling out band four LTE beginning in a few weeks, which the N4 supports. Sure, T-Mobile could…

To be fair, the "hard core Android group" own Nexuses, and they're not on Verizon. The first two devices you're citing were either straight-up AWFUL from day one (the Thunderbolt), or mediocre at very best (the Incredible 2). The S3, with Nature UI, is a good enough device (although the camera should've been improved…

I wish. If that were the case, you could actually buy the wireless charging orb. As it stands, there is no ETA on when we'll actually be able to buy this thing. No release date, no leaks, not a peep from Google or LG. Not one word.

A thousand times this. After Whitson said it, I signed up for the beta and got an invite and oh man Desktoppr is incredible.

PC gaming is great, and should definitely complement the console experience, just as consoles complement the PC. But lauding Steam's biannual sales is more than a bit myopic, because if you're aware of OTHER, awesome PC sales channels that frequently slash prices (Amazon PCDD, Gamefly On Demand, GOG, Green Man, etc.)…

It's not the best wording, but I'd call it more naive than passive aggressive. GameFly is still doing great business, though— when it comes to consoles it's sort of essential. Digital distribution is great, but on consoles it's unrelentingly expensive.
