You more or less can beat anything in the canon HS elph series will do you well. If you want to go cheaper, their A series is pretty respectable.

Heh, yes, its T-Mobile's "4g". Its still pretty fast, and the fastest of the 3g+ networks.

Yeah, I know your pain. I decided to live with the lackluster android experience for the low price/fast data connection.

No surprising. I am on a sweet tmobile prepaid deal. 30 bucks a month for unlimited data (first 5gbs at 4g speeds), plus unlimited text, and 100 talk minutes which I almost never use. Anyway, the 4g for me in LA is faster than my top tier DSL I have at home because of my laziness to switch to something better.

Yes, but only for when I'm searching for specific stuff on craiglist. It can't be beat.

Replying to approve.

Well just because Costco probably loses or sells the gas at cost to get you to keep your subscription. Costo doesn't make their big bucks selling gas, they make it selling memberships.

There are only so many ways to skin a cat*.

I love love my ipod touch. I even keep it with me even after finally getting a mid-level android smart phone. If the apple peels allowed better than edge on t-mobile I would consider making it my phone.

I especially like that there is instructions on making your device think this is acting as straight AC and not USB power on the amazon picture notes.

200 dollars just to add airplay seems a bit steep. For 80 dollars I'll get a refurb airport express and glue it to the side of the receiver.

Did you watch it at the DT Independent? I wanted to go but had tickets to the Phil.

California. I am aware of the regulations. I've been talking to our local IRB about it; Its very straightforward. The regulations are the easy part.

Its actually not nearly as restrictive as you think. Plus subjects would have to sign a research specific hippa waiver before they be ask to complete anything.

I have lots of questions this time around. I'll put each in its own thing.

OMG! Swiftkey is by far my favorite keyboard on android, but its inability to recognize missing spaces was its biggest downfall. Coming form iOS, where the keyboard was great at picking up missing spaces, this was always a big time suck having to go back and enter a space.

I've more or less gotten addicted to their live map conditions: [www.wunderground.com]

Someone who came to do a presentation to our group did this recently and it worked very well.

Yes I only know the answer to this because it was posted recently on a couple of gawker sites.

The other feature I desperately want with google calendar is a change log. A simple date time and who stamp.
