3330s took up more space, used more power and at ~45lbs and 22" across with a whole 200MB capacity at $74k - $87k per seems a tad more expensive than the 3390s. And you could change out the spindles for different jobs . . . that's how I know how much they weighed - in the mid 80s I was a lab coated mainframe op on…

Nothing to do with 9/11. There were always requests/orders to shut off all electronics, including Gameboys, walkmans, disc mans and any other devices with an on/off switch.

Having gone through WD TV Live Hub and AppleTV I finally settled on a Sony NSZ-GT1 and am very happy with the result. The Bluray player is as you would expect, and with an all Sony setup the remote works seamlessly with everything I have (including my DirecTV HD-DVR).

But you're a sad sack of Apple fanboi. I'd rather be me, thank you.

GV is great, but no international SMS.

and do you think Romney really won Ohio?

Widgets FTW. Until iOS does widgets (which they will likely never do until the Patent wars die down) they've got no chance of having me as a customer.

Look for earbuds with small driver diameters - iBeats have very narrow drivers and with the small buds on them the will fit the smallest of ear canals. I've also found that Shure e210s have smaller drivers. Skullcandy FMJs are smallish, but the best I've found so far are the iBeats.

They outsourced to Microsoft for their systems - there goes the (security) neighborhood . .. . .

Email is as secure as the infrastructure that hosts it and the people who use it, but can be very secure.

Yeah, SMS is the only "instant" communication option. Can't even be bothered to cite how many "instant" communication options there are to show how much #fail that is.

That's all well and good but the top selling beers in this country are still piss & sugar, because that's what most Americans drink. For the record my local is the best Brewpub in the US, according to GABF, and you wouldn't catch me drinking Bud, Coors or MGD.

There's a chain of Cinemas opening in Southern Cal that allows this option - http://www.cinepolisusa.com . They serve booze during the movie too!

Nokia 8110, aka Bananaphone. And not just because it was in the Matrix.

1. Sticking their elbows out when holding phone to their ear.

Illuminated touchpads have been on Manson guitars for years.

Or use TripIt. $49 for Pro for the year (not cheap!) but you get gate change and flight delay notifications faster than the airlines.

Not if I have to enter a captcha for EVERY message I send because I won't give up my cell number. And it's Hotmail - SPAM/virus central. I quit using my hotmail account 10 years ago and honestly thought it was no longer around. Don't know anyone with an account there anymore.
