They did say it's a specially marked lot.

Right, in America Biscuit is a puppy

Hmm... also bought a car off ebay too

a $2000 digital piano

Cable Box is a good one. They consume tons of power even when "off" (which is really not off, just swapped out the channel into a stupid screen saver)

I never lived in the walled city, but one of my mom's childhood friend did. They ran a textile factory inside. We were told never to roam around inside when visiting, and we never go visit them directly. We had to call them using telephone from the convenience store outside the walled city for someone to lead us…

a ~17mm lens is pretty wide (wide enough for 95% of what you'd do), and f/2.8 is pretty fast. I wouldn't compare that with a FAAAST prime lens but is all around pretty decent IMHO.

I thought I was an "early adopter" but apparently I was 8 months behind! (I just found my "Your Gmail account, @gmail.com, has been created" email was dated 12/14/2004)

I got 1282ms, if I get what you mean

Since we all use phone less and less the phone functionality and more of a tablet, it actually make sense for the phone function to be added to a tablet, and eliminate the 3-4 inch sized "phone" altogether

Better yet - buy a knock-off and quietly swap the real one at an Apple Store

I'm pretty confident you cannot return Microsoft online store's merchandise in Microsoft B&M store. I know because I actually asked this very question

In other news, Windows Phone App Store hit 30 thousand downloads from 65 apps this past May. Microsoft now claims its platform is a "long term investment".

According to Moore's Law, the day we can support 4k is 3 years after we can support 1080p (data rate is 4x of 1080p and Moore's Law dictate rate of advance to double every 18 months, so advance is 4x after 36 months).

Another reason Canada's impressive : there's no unlimited internet and everybody get a cap on home internet

I almost forgot about my Clie... the app icons were square with rounded corners. They should've been sued by Apple I guess

Except they very recently created a website "Bing It On" http://www.bingiton.com for a head-to-head with Google. Sounds like they are using it as a verb to me

I was implying the original one is pretty much out-of-support at this point. No real upgrade is going to happen to it, except the possible bug fixes.

No but they did upgrade the hardware and lowered the price of the KF "SD"

Instead of the gimmicky Kansas twin cities, had they picked something like Northern Virginia (yes, where Amazon data center is) I'm pretty confident signup rate will be much much higher.
