    @tobylane: Your inability to stay on topic is trumped only by your belief that Dubai is a country.

    It's a photo finish, but the winner of the 75745th cent-annual Rush To Be Offended is....

    Nope. Don't use torrents. There are better alternatives out there.

    @matsayz: I have two Apple TVs, both are jailbroken, and I stream TV shows, music, and movies from my network drive to XBMC on the Apple TVs. You can't beat a device that will run XBMC and stream in HD for $100

    Sam, I disagree with you. This phone has me intrigued.

    @loce07: Musta' been one heck of a whale watching trip to have snatched that photo!

    Looks like the Apple TV is no more.

    @4n7h0ny: Swype. You're welcome.

    @OgilvyTheAstronomer: Well, we have Jim "The Savage" Santoro with us today. And as you know, Jim lost his middleweight fight against Shiva last week, so per his contract, he has come in so we can perform Shiva's Babality on him.

    I'm having trouble understanding this.

    I was being sarcastic. Our reaction in general has been a laughable series of appalling clusterfuckery... and that's not even considering the consequences abroad. I'm just referring to the crap we put ourselves through domestically.

    In case you didn't notice, it's 2011. This happened 10 years ago, meaning the college story may have happened anytime in the last 10 years. Hell, might have happened 8 years ago and I may have graduated a month later. I might even be a working professional with 8 years of experience now. Facts, schmacts, though right?

    @The5thElephant: I disagree. It's totally appropriate to make travelers throw away tubes of tooth paste and gifted bottles of wine before boarding a plane.

    @BoscoH: You forgot to sell the iPhone on eBay for more than you bought it for to some poor sap who will be reading this article 2 months from now in the hopes of making his overpriced phone look more like the phone he should have bought.

    @Kaiser-Machead: In the words of someone who I can't remember saying something, "Charlie Sheen is really great at playing Charlie Sheen. That's about it. Hell, they don't even change the character name from 'Charlie' anymore."

    For real hilarity, he needs to take two and a half shots every time the "dorky" guy on the show says something self-deprecating over the roar of the laugh track.

    It's like that crappy flop movie about "you push this button and I will give you a million dollars, but someone somewhere will die!"

    I don't think it's quite a wash, but I get your point. Solid State data adds cost as well. And you might be seeing some attempts at recouping NRE/tooling. Put it this way, I don't think they are intentionally making themselves uncompetitive because they are greedy and are packing in an 80% margin. I think somehow,
