One thing is sell you and your contact's info to marketers...

I'm honestly kind of worried my wife may download something one day. It's not that she's careless, its just she is so stuck on getting free apps...

Exactly, anything over a gig or so I'll d/l overnight.

I'm honestly surprised that this is something that's tied to a user's SIM. Granted I don't have an iPhone so excuse my ignorance. How much does an email address tie into Apple's ecosystem? I'm an Android user and I've had a blackberry so I'm comparing this to things like BBM and GTalk.

yeah I was wondering the same. Especially when screenshots and photos started popping up. Not cool if true.

Yeah my wife is on the clumsy side as well. Once dropped a blackberry in a cup of sprite. We got tablets the other day and if she manages to cause any damage to hers I'm probably going to lose it and not let her use mine ever.

This is beyond bad lol. I have owned a few Blackberrys and liked them but this is just awful. The super hero thing only works for kids 10 and under. And 10 is pushing it. And why would a kid 10 and under need/want a Blackberry?

Jamie...I love you.

I wouldn't consider it a failure, not great because there is still much he didn't come through on, but definitely not a failure. I think the GOPs best bet is Romney. Gingrich is losing friends within his own party and isn't really liked by a big enough portion of the general population.

I have pairs of wool trousers...they don't look the same.

Agreed. The more I read Brent the more he is a level headed editor.

If I'm the only one using a PC I'm pretty much logged in all the time. My work PC has me always logged in in Chrome. I have an Android phone so that's an always logged in one as well.

Best Buy has had Playbooks for 299.99 for I know 2 weeks now. And that is in ANY size.

If you think he will not be reelected I want to live on your planet. The Republican candidates are slowly killing each other. I don't identify as either party but I really wish there was a viable Republican candidate to at least make it a competitive election.

"They were flagrant about their intentions to squeeze cash out of Simpsons episodes and 50 Cent albums, rewarding their most piracy-pushing users, laundering money through the site, and spending the cash in the most conspicuous ways imaginable.

I can't see that happening at Apple. They come across as too iron fisted and would punt anyone that criticized the product.

Honestly, if its as wonderful a place as they make it out to be you would probably WANT to be at work. The extra hours would become a norm and you'd adjust.

yeah I've worked for 2 gov't contractors. Security clearance required. You don't even fathom talking about work outside of it.

and when you are done with those books you can at least sell them back to get at least half of your money back if sold directly to another student.

This. I was following the article nicely and then it hits the part about not being able to resell.
