@Snow leopard: You want a better device, not a better sausage tipped stick. It isn't getting any better on this hardware. The lack of accuracy is the iPad.

@jsbaugh1: "works well" for you does not fit my description of the same term. You have to hold the pen very awkwardly or you touch your palm to the device and then you are resizing and rotating instead of writing or you get pen marks all over where your palm is.

@Bucky Rodgers: Is Wihipedia a good site? never heard of it.

@dcdttu: Then don't use the pen. It is most likely going to be an option. Stylus and finger input, but we will see. It would be a mistake to go for just stylus, IMO.

I wonder how many hours it took to do this over two years and how much money he would have made at a halfway decent job over that period.

@Everybody: Do you mean carcassone or settlers? If you mean settlers you can turn all that stuff off and turn it onto hyper speed which blows through all the computer steps really fast except for trading, but the latest version has the option to autodecline all trades till your turn comes around again. Good if you…

We have the biggest flagpole I have ever seen that went up down the street. I am assuming it is also a cell tower, but I doubt it is ATT as my home coverage is still about 2-3 bars pre 4.1 update on my iphone 3g

@soggy_cheerio: Yeah, catan has been out for over a year now. No networked multiplayer though, and no expansions.

Can this target those weird Chinese ramdom trajectory drunken missiles that can get through our current defense systems?

"Like how badly AT&T wanted to the gimp the iPhone."

@minibeardeath: Very odd. I have not had to restart in a month at least, and I do the updates about once or twice a week.

Too bad we can't tell what percentage of voters actually OWN an iPhone4. Useless poll unfortunately.

Man I hate the design of that thing. It is so anti-stackable. Ugh. Even the xbox360 stacks better than that.

I read that image with the word 'nearly' in it to show that Apple has found designs that do not attenuate at all when held but decided to make their own design attenuate like crazy when held in a very common way.

@Igor Neumann: That phone would suck. Why would anyone want a transparent display? First thing you would have to do to use it would be to tape a piece of black or white construction paper to the back.

Makes me a little less sad that the shuttle is being scrapped. Sure this is no replacement, but good to see the private sector having success even in suborbit.

@badasscat: It is just different. Kind of a mix of T9 with touchscreen.

@ddhboy: Yeah... the kids who skateboard by setting off car alarms could destroy a ton of these with a bat...

Who is going to pay to put these up on every street or at parking lots where they will just be run over constantly like all the bent parking meters I see.

Germ phobia amuses me.
