I live in Los Angeles.

At this point I'd personally just wait and take my chances at a real store. I didn't preorder the iPhone4 and camped out in front of the local AT&T store for about an hour before they opened only to realize stupidly that the people who were in line had already been put in some priority list and weren't giving phones…

I also managed to get into the store and preorder for delivery on the 21st (firefox and chrome would not get into the store for 15 minutes, and then I randomly tried safari and got in and out smooth as butter. Go figure), was out of there by 20 past. I did a dry run "buying" a 4S to see what the process would be like…

At this point Amazon's doing a better job killing small businesses.

If you're having trouble getting into the apple store, try using safari.

If I DID get my iPhone4 through the AT&T physical store, what's the process going to be like to do it through the apple store online?

I hear Cricket is a CDMA carrier, in that they piggy-back onto Sprint's networks. If I wanted to buy an unlocked phone from them but end up disliking the service, can I use that same iPhone to go back to AT&T? I use the cheapest plan on AT&T (300mb data and 450 talk, no text because I use GV) and I would probably go…

Two questions: 1) which iPhone 5 do they offer? Sounds like they use a CDMA network, does that mean if I get a phone through them I can't use the phone to switch over to AT&T if I end up not liking the service?

Correction 20/month for 300mb.

I am currently on the 300mb 15/month 3g plan on AT&T for my iPhone4... can I keep this plan when getting my iPhone5, and will that price/data cap work over LTE speeds? I am almost always in wifi range and have only gone over that cap twice in two years (I saw it coming so I just switched to the higher plan for the…

There are no processing fees when you redeem the change for gift cards, including amazon gift cards.

Purely strictly the article mainly refers to headphones, which I identify as the larger over-the-ear variety. Given how big some of them are I don't see why they can't build in a spool there to just wind the cables around neatly, like the hooks that pop out of the Macbook power adapters.

I've had conversations with people here about this before, but I still have a hard time accepting the rationalization that until a solution is enacted that properly benefits both the artist and the musician, torrenting is acceptable. And that usually comes after a declaration of how the music people torrent aren't…

Funny how much torrented music is "older" music.

By not spending any money on music and that means you're also not downloading them illegally, right? Just through the radio, spotify, TV, and on youtube through official channels?

Download those when you're on wifi.

More inconsistencies with your argument:

Dammit I was gonna post the same thing (that if your reason was the real reason for the rule you would not be allowed to sleep or put on earplugs, books are okay, toys are okay, eating is okay but you're not allowed to read your kindle?), but someone clearly beat me to it.

The article miscommunicates the actual purpose of the device. It's not for taking panoramas, it's for taking those cool timelapse videos where the camera seems to be moving (very slowly) across the landscape, since timelapse videos where the camera stays still is SOOO 10 years ago.

Again for a person who's disciplined to begin with it's not hard to transition to a place where you use your credit cards for everything but always pay it off within the grace period (and you get cash back and other protections). Hence a disciplined person can build credit and never actually "take on debt." Of course…
