That Goal Zero charger / flashlight thing looks good and is quite solid, but don't count on the hand crank for anything other than a few minutes of light. It will take hours of cranking to recharge your phone fully, and probably 15 minutes of cranking to charge it enough to make a short emergency call. The gears are…

Same here, order cancelled with $20 gift card. Not as nice as a $140 discount on the Kindle Voyager, but still pretty nice. I wouldn't waste the time on customer support, but if you decide to do it, good luck!

I have the Crane. Owned 3 of them, in fact. First one (from Amazon) worked well until my daughter dropped it and the base cracked. Can't fault them for that. Second one (also from Amazon, a few months later) had some strange chemical smell that still wouldn't go away after a couple of weeks of use. It came from the…

Could be worse. Could be the Chevy Dolt.

I had a Contigo Addison - lost it a few weeks ago :( I like it better than the CamelBak Eddy. Flip out straw design, and it flips out when I press a button on the cap. Slightly more convenient.

I would need to pay tax for Prime with the phone. When I subscribe to Prime alone, there is no tax. So factor in another $9 extra to the cost of the phone.

That "meteor thing" has the energy equivalent of 500 kilotons of TNT before atmospheric impact. By comparison, the Hiroshima bomb released the equivalent of 20 kilotons of TNT. It weighs about 1000 times more than the F18C here, and was traveling about 50 times faster. Sonic booms can break window glass, but one would…

The way I imagine this would happen is that the turkey rises into the air, then *poof*, feathers fly everywhere.

Only if he first force-choke the turkey to kill it.

Only thing I'm dissatisfied with - it's too big to use in a keyboard drawer with a mouse. It's certainly a nice keyboard, especially for $90 - $100.

Exactly! I'm thinking, instead of arms and legs, how about tentacles?

Well, 7 8 9, but it took us this long to notice. It's never too late to stop cannibalization.

Personally I find some name / word choices to be cringe-worthy as well. But I think it says more about myself than the words and the people who uses them.
