How the fuck is anyone still charging $3 for a tower defence game? They're great, and all - but who needs another one that much?

The good thing about the standard four-screw system is its redundancy - there are four separate elements. Even if two fail, you're fine.

Overnight? The iPhone launched *four* years ago. Companies that haven't dealt with that yet have no excuse.

Or it would be 7 tonnes, if it weren't 93% empty.

Really, there's only one fancy Danish sweater that matters.

Four? Pah. Try SIX. [www.thenational.ae]

I like Transmission.

Careful, the 90s might want their riposte back.

All three, I expect. And in five years you'll have one.*

Each text character is, by definition, 1 byte. So at 8 letters per word, 120 words is 1KB. A 1,000 word article is 8KB. Even a 100,000-word novel is less than 1MB. Trust me, you can keep the text in RAM.

Sod the flash memory. Do it in RAM. The memory used by the text of (say) ten webpages is never going to be anything other than negligible (and you can always decide to set a maximum above which stuff gets trashed anyway).

Aren't good roadside ads the ones simple (and familiar) enough that you know what they are without 'looking' at them, and then look at them if you're in the market/able to?

This is neat as all hell. I can't wait for Apple to make it useful.

I sort of agree on RAM. Reloading previously opened web pages is a major annoyance on my iPhone (3GS... will get a 4S when they're released here).

Is any of that any worse than reading a roadside ad, though? It certainly sounds better than looking down at a satnav.

Nokia's got a lot right here, for the first time in a long time. A simple product line (don't go changing that!), with clear differentiation. They look attractive (but fat!), and while I'm unlikely to buy anything other than an iPhone, these provide the best reasons I've seen yet to consider doing so - certainly…

>10mm thick = fail.

Not great. iPhone (3GS) worked on about the third time of asking, no luck with iPad 2 yet. 3.5 hours and counting...

You're forgetting Moore's law, though. Sure, this stuff sounds processor-intensive now. But how many orders of magnitude is it off today's top-of-the-line ARM chips? One? Two, absolute tops? Sure, people are always going to find great things to do with unbelievable processing power, but within a decade the power…
