So they cosider cost and maintenance support? For two identical products with different labels on the outside wouldn't the cheaper be better if all else is equal. Also Sears has a pretty robust product support infrastructure when compared with other brands. I've gone down to a local shop and picked up part for my…

"Kenmore appliances are made by other companies, like Whirlpool/Maytag, GE, Frigidaire, etc., yet, somehow, the same exact item, under the Kenmore brand, would receive top billing, over it's GE/Whirlpool/Frigidaire counterpart. In many instances, the real brand would be bottom ranked, while the Kenmore would be top…

Nope, just Chuck Testa

Agreed, it's like it's a parody of a boom box or a cartoon version it.

Someone else has already done a fairly decen job pointing out the flaws in this.

The 6100's were great, but nothing compared to the indestructible 2100's. I literally saw one fall off a ladder, get kicked across a construction site, get ran over by a truck, and then take a call. Granted the screen was broke at that point, but it still worked otherwise. The guy kept it and kept using it for another…

While I'm not in the military I had to go on a business trip when my son was very young, about 2. I had the benefit of being able to video chat with him while I was away. The first night the novelty of my being on a computer screen wore off and he wanted me to "get out puter". He even checked behind the screen to see…

Q - "Why doesn't this product have the specs that I was hoping for?"

I'm not saying that WebOS isn't functional, but that an OS level the development has pretty much stopped. So maybe it's not dead, just in the ICU. Even if HP hasn't officially decided the fate of WebOS it's not looking good.

Enjoy using your dead os then

I'm in the same boat, but I simply must have local playback. Otherwise this is irrelevant in my book.

Does anyone know if ComScore uses User Agent ID's to come up with these numbers? Not that I don't think it's possible but whenever I see stats that heavily skewed in one direction I must question the sampling methodology. I'm not trying to flame bait here, iPad really could be that dominant.

Stopping society from destroying itself is not the same as protecting and individual from themself. Of the items you mentioned, only the drug control policy is primarily around protecting an individual from themself. It is also one of the most hotly debated if it actually has any benefit or not. It's hardly a shining…

Show me one example of the government successfully protecting us from ourselves and I'm sold. Please note that the "war on drugs" has not stopped drug use, prohibition did not stop alcohol use, and I'm sure there will be plenty of illegal under age tanning going on in CA.

Next up, you must be 21 or over to purchase any food that involves a deep fryer because it has been linked to heart disease.

"I'd say it sounded brittle, peaky, and unhinged (distorted at the top end, non-flat, and with a bad sub crossover frequency selection). "

Don't you know style trumps function. The thin glass phone with the antena on the out side looks cool. Who cares if it had mediocre battery life, drops calls when you hold it, and shatters when you set it down? It's all about looks right?

Can we get a reference line for the prevailing high end Android phone at the same equivalent time? It would be very telling for a comparison. If memory serves the G1 launched after the iPhone 3g and was behind in several ways. Now The iPhone 4s is playing catch up with the likes of the Glaxy SII. Then of course…

Make that let's take another look in two weeks. Isn't the rumour that the Nexus Prime is supposed to be announced next week?

Sham: something that is not what it purports to be; a spurious imitation; fraud or hoax.
