I didn't really feel it was a big deal for me because I have a laptop with it so it sleeps when i close it and shuts down when i press the power button. I have it on a desktop though and It seems easier to use the on screen shutdown than the hardware button. (Its on the top of the tower on the desk)

How often do you have to shut down your computer that this is going to impact your use. Really. You go to the right side of the screen hit settings and power. There ya go. Done. It's not like you have to go to the control panel and dig around.

That's why I keep my SD cards in faraday cages! :D

I've only had one card" die" on me, a PNY optima, it decided one day it didn't want to be read. From anything. But somehow recuva saw it and I got half of my stuff back, most of it was badly corrupted. The weird thing is I didn't even remove it from my rebel, it just wouldn't read from it.

I'm sorry but.. that is terrible..

I've used premeire pro cs6 and Photoshop cs5 with no problems. It acts just like windows 7 in desktop mode, but way faster.

I don't think hisense no name company, I see their TVs in Walmart and shopko all the time, I think they also make cheapo mp3 players but I'm not sure. The TVs often look like better quality than the big brand competitors.

The Acer A500 has a full sized USB port and it's running ICS, I've used wireless mice keyboards flash drives Xbox controllers, and even my DSLR camera through it. Why don't more companies include a full size USB!? Its a freaking usefull feature for a tablet.

ASUS beat apple and amazon to my school. They gave out transformer prime tablets to every student. And every teacher got one with the keyboard dock. They are working wonderfully and now many students who had ipads and iPhones are switching to android.

You should recommend juice defender to them, it helps a lot. I didn't have a problem lasting a day without it but afterwards I can easily get 2 days out of a charge. The free version works wonderfully but the paid is even better!

Eye see what you did there... again

Eye can't stop laughing at this thread!

Do you think the phone died from dust or could it have been something else? What would make all three radios stop working at once?

You severely underestimate the strength of a power seat motor, they are geared low so they move slow, but that gearing gives them a lot of torque. I've accidentially crushed things in my back seat that way. That said I don't put things on the floor in back anymore :D

Sheet metal break! :D

I understand about the core charges, but why would you have to keep the old part, couldn't you just ask too see it before they throw it away. I have known a few shops that love to screw over people that don't know simple things. But I don't have to worry about that I work on my own vehicles. :)

My school just bought the 7 through 12th grade Asus transformer prime tablets, they're working out great.

Optically or geometrically?

A pretty darn good tablet for the price is the Acer a500, best feature has got to be the full size USB port. If you can live without that the newer Acer a700 is even better.

Haha I got a carbon fiber skin for my tablet, it feels grippier than the normal back too.
