BED BUG GENOCIDE!

@MayorBloomberg: The iPad is better, this is a valid comment. I think the Galaxy Tab is 2 inches and 1 OS upgrade away from being worthwhile. Google themselves admited that Android, at it's core, was not designed for tablet use.

@pz: OOBE-fail.

@DirtyDogg: Streaming from my PC is actually the method I use though it struggles with HD content over my crappy Wireless G router, I just can't get over the lack of unification of standards.

For a year, searching "MSE" on 'Microsoft' Bing didn't yield 'Microsoft' Security Essentials; unlike Google that began showing it within a week of Security Essentials going primetime. Even today, (in Canada) Bing's result of said search yield a pretty FAILworthy set of results: Microsoft Security Essentials shows up

@jiggpig: Cryogenic Batteries! You're a genius!

@Gary_7vn: For reading an opening files, Dropbox works great. However, one cannot save files from an iWork application back to their Dropbox, without a tedious third-party file-migrator like GoodReader.

@MikeLanglois: I second that! FaceTime 360 all the way! (across the sky.)

@jglavin: Do you not find TomTom a little inaccurate in major urban areas? The TomTom Dock provided a lot of help for this (for me), but I still found Navigon to be so much more polished, and relatively more accurate.

@kdupree: iOS based Navigon and TomTom get free updates a few times a year.

@Celtic1888: I have to agree, mostly. Google NAV, especially because of StreetView and especially when you can use voice control to say things like: "Navigate to the closest Liquor Store." That IS magic. But some of us, specifically Canadians on a budget, are bound by limitied (100MB) data plans. For that reason I
