as it appears you've thought through the various hazard scenarios associated with 3d printing, would you care to share your other insights? I am genuinely interested =]

people actually use the flimsy stands that come with the TV's? i keed i keed... the solution is easy. if the tv is placed next to a wall, secure it with an eyebolt at one of the vesa mount points, to a stud in the wall, with some sort of tether.

where's this barn you speak of?

lol, no gold here, sorry.. but i may be able to interest you in some dark elixer.. it will make you grow beyond your existing proportions, and grant you immortality.. tho you may need to sleep post battle..

i'm in a similar boat. the few apps that i'd miss on competing platforms aren't enough to keep me tied to ios if they want more money.. if they want more money from me, there needs to be enough value added, that i would consider the purchase anyway.

well played troll.. well played =]

if thats the case, i'm not going to put ios7 on my ipad.. or the 4s.. and i'll probably be jumping ship.. there's some fancy smartphones with fancy cameras attached to them, that run circles around the iphone camera

in short, no, i would not.

well played troll.. well played

above ground tubes... giant semi-sealed tubes.. underground is a bad idea in california.. what with all the fault lines..

there's a minimum focal flange distance between the back of the lens and the focal plane.. so, because of the limited space between the flange and the focal plane, the lens has to have a much larger image circle.. which makes me wonder if its design has more in common with medium and large format lenses. either way,…

all of these thing are available now though.. remote control of cameras isn't a new thing.. controlling them via smart device isn't new either..

and at the higher end, remote control via computer has been around even longer.

i do enjoy landscape composition with a large screen,…

you're putting the cart before the horse..

how is it's not a sensor-in-lens device? how is this not some evolutionary offshoot of the target they were aiming at? is it not a similar idea.. encase the sensor in the lens, to keep it clean. then the body, and associated hardware can be upgraded at will, while allowing…

didn't polaroid attempt a sensor-in-lens camera?

read much?

"The bottom line is this: on Allain's Macbook Pro..."

lol, once it's implemented into the iphone, people will be issuing commands while waving their hands around their phones.. followed by flashing lights and sounds.. it'll be like watching a sorcerer.. with limited powers. there will be a secondary kinect dongle, to give a +2 instant bonus to dork factor.

@digitaldave: darwin, and mach are the foundations of os x.. while the underpinnings of both are *nix like, they do not have the same kernel ~_^

samsung is a big conglomerate. their mobile division and semiconductor divisions are not the same company.

i'd hope the ubuntu they put on it isn't neutered 0_o

it needs to be good enough to keep me from looking at the p&s market for an always with me ready to go camera. i have no expectations for a sensor/lens combo of this size to be able to keep up with my dslr, but that's physics, and off camera strobe/lighting coming into the equation.. but things being what they are,…

when i'm looking for a product, to fit a list of expectations, i turn to a forum that focuses on the industry most closely associated with a product. for headphones, i would go to an audio engineering forum, and ask audio engineers what they think. To expedite the process, i would provide a short list of reference…
