@chronic_phobia: He'll also "give" your kids "free" ice cream! Moo hoo ha ha haaaaa!

Then he grabbed a nearby girl and transformed her into a deadly Prog.

Ooh, Super KO Boxing 2 for the iPhone! I had the original on my old not-so-smartphone, and it was one of the few good games available for it. Can't resist the sequel for the low, low price of free. Thanks for the scoop!

@StupidSimple: Or maybe shake some of the seeds out of the feeder so he could scoop them up from the ground.

I'm sick of these. Simplicity, Google... remember that? If I wanted resource-stealing widgets of questionable utility, I'd use Bing.

Eric Schmidt kind of looks like Donald Rumsfeld in this video. Or maybe a young Larry King, I'm not sure.

@JosephCole: Nobody calls it that but that Taiwanese news show. I have heard "not neutrality" and "net neuterality" though.

It's substantive, yet still makes Eric Schmidt look like a bastard. This is much, much better than the creepy ice cream man advertisement.

@triune: I wouldn't count on that. With Google waist-deep in the cell phone industry, I think there's a reason they chose to exempt wireless services from net neutrality provisions. They say "oh, it'll only be for a few years," but it's funny how a few years become forever after those few years are up.

@ThreeOneFive: They do it because IT ALWAYS WORKS. Remember, it's for the opportunistic politicians- er, I mean children!

@junior ghoul: "corrections, its a republic, with connections to democracy. "

@Ordnael Adiemla: Quality? We're like 30th in overall internet speed when compared to other countries.

@weissn001: It was a pie-in-the-sky proposal and I'm happy to abandon it... but there MUST be more competition in the broadband market and there MUST be an open internet. No tiering, no blocking of legal web sites, and no "some providers are more equal than others."

@KamWrex: Funny, you guys weren't bitching about taxes when we were using them to bomb other countries into smoking holes.

Here's an idea. Net neutrality. We've only been demanding it for the last eight years, since Colin Powell's worthless son dismantled it to make AT&T happy. We're all too happy to pay for internet as long as it remains an open form of communication.

@Damien Lavizzo: So they're in direct competition with Nintendo now? Good, I can direct all the hatred I had for Sony on Steve Jobs, a guy I already didn't like. What a time-saver!

@Benjamin Posch: The camera's lens couldn't possibly be that wide. Also, a three sentence summary would really help, because everyone seems evasive about what exactly this widget does. Does it just download videos from iTunes, or can it be used to store and play back videos purchased elsewhere? It's going to be

I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THIS THING DOES!!!

Blockbuster stomped out a lot of mom and pops, so no, this isn't a big loss for me. They did a fine job of crushing their competitors, but their refusal to adapt to the information age doomed them. Short-sighted, heartless, greedy, stubborn... no, they won't be missed.
