Same here. I've always found the B&N stores to be very awkward and cramped regardless of size. The lay out is clunky and doesn't encourage the shopper to venture deeper into the store. Boarders always seemed much more open.

Yeah, I have totally seen that before. Shops like those appear almost over night and the employees are required to know absolutely nothing about the hand sets or services they're selling.

I love self checkout. It makes the lines at places like IKEA actually bearable. I really think that more NON grocery stores should consider them. It would give them more employees to have one the sales floor actually helping people.

"I think your shrink might recommend going shopping with a different attitude, perhaps looking for opportunities to bond with others."

My space just seems like some trashy 17 and under night club.

Quite the knee jerk assumption considering that every computer I've owned has been a windows machine AND the only smart phones I've used have been android. A REAL fan boy indeed.

The vibrant does look like the 3g, and so does the nexus prime. While the I phone 4 does slightly resemble the Prada, the actual design is so much more refined that it doesn't come of as an imitation.

It may sound petty, but this still looks too much like the i phone for me.

Wow, if any thing I'd hope that they'd shut down the Att locations. While most cell phone stores seem overpriced and unnecessary as it is, I've had nothing but unsatisfactory experiences at ATT places. T-mobile on the other hand has always been very helpful. Like others have said , the existence of soo many cell…

I asked one of the employees at my local electronics shop about that. He said that it won't be a monopoly because voda phone will be coming to the US ( after coming to some agreement wiht verison) and will have GSM. Not sure if he was bullshitting me or not though.

I think that in the states the majority of people old enough to smoke already know the risks. I'm sure the tobacco company has long sense come to terms with the effects the anti smoking campaign has had on american demand. If any thing the Us needs to help educate OTHER COUNTRIES where People (esp those below the…

I could really see the house thing working. If they use the same principle as luxury car keys it seems expensive but doable. If the battery or power goes out then they could just have a traditional key that still works as a back up.

Hmmm. There's a difference between "wearable electronics" and stuff that's just slapped onto other stuff for the sake of adhering it to your body. I think that light up shoes and jackets if picked up my major designers could totally take off , but things like LCD goggles and wearable lap tops seem MAJORLY gimmicky.…

Some of the shows are from the 80's .But I mean the 90's WAS a decade of filling day time time slots with copious reruns of 80's shows.

Yeah, this really just comes off as yet another " INTO THE FUTURE" Gimmick that will eventually fall victim to lack of infrastructure.

Yeah, I agree with your point on mistaken charges. What if my phone is running slow and accidentally charges me twice for something because I hit the button again hoping it would load. What if my phone dies or drops and breaks while I'm making an important purchase? Then what?

This article makes some valid points. Even though WP7 has only been out for a few months I'd hate to see it end up like the zune. Sure the zune HD is a great device but had the original zune been nearly as polished who knows where it could be now. Seems like the windows team is loosing a lot of ground in their quest…

When will something that looks that sleek be cheap enough to toss around at weddings.

I wasn't aware that baby G watches being ugly was a NEW let alone news worthy occurrence. That huge picture on the front page just for this half paragraph humorless article. " MAN that watch is SOO ugly, w-when I saw it, I was like MAN THAT WATCH IS UGLY"........ -_-.

How much did cable internet cost back then? I'm sure it wasn't cheap. Maybe he couldn't afford it.
