@MaxPoint: Until just this month, I felt exactly the same as you. That is to say, completely ambiguous/ambivalent. But the latest generation Kindle is the first of the eReaders that has made me say, "Wow, I want one." Third-party app support coupled and enticing price really sold it to me - I'm actually at a point…

@Lassus: Scotty, we need more power!

@sg1969: I was thinking more about home theater viewing. On mobile devices, I wouldn't ever use more than 160kbps, for file size reasons alone. I wouldn't convert my video to 2000kbps either. :)

Now there's an idea for Belle & Sebastian's "Write About Love" thing... [www.belleandsebastian.com]

@Roberto Carlos Silva Orozco: It's been rumored (and hinted at by Notion Ink) but never confirmed that Google has been a silent financial supporter of the Adam's development, so I wouldn't be surprised if this launches with Android 3.0

A lot of cars are going without turn signals thanks to this Chess set.

Broadband in rural areas can be hell. As it is, if I lived just half a mile to the west, the best I could get is 2mbps DSL. And the 7mbps cable I do get costs $50/month because the provider basically has a area-wide monopoly.

Some of these new "rivals" look intriguing, but none of them do I want to pick up and buy (possibly the Notion Ink, but I really need more details - it looks sexy, and I do love e-ink).

@ekokinex: But the EVO uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon which isn't as efficient as the Samsung Hummingbird. Clock speed might be the same but the Hummingbird performs better (Much like the TI OMAP inside the Droid 1, which only runs at 600mhz but still eats Snapdragons for breakfast). Though with the EVO running Froyo, it…

For 480p DVD rips at full resolution, I usually do 2000kbps for my Xbox360, streamed through WMC. I want the picture to look identical to if I was popping a disc in. It is.

@wanderingrabbi: ...plus a slide out keyboard, a faster cpu, a faster gpu, and a subjectively better quality screen.

This is the third completely unique mockup I've seen today, though this is by far the most plausible.

Great Zombie Jesus.

I'm getting 3 days out of my G1 running CyanogenMod5.

Dunno if this is a good or bad thing: What I watched for the first 60 seconds could have easily been a SNES or Sega Genesis game back in the day. I'm guessing the game will work well on the WinPho7 platform when that arrives, and iOS devices. (I mention WP7 specifically because porting it will simply be a matter of…

If you've got the invite, whether you spend the $10/month really comes down to two factors: the tv shows you watch and the hardware you watch it on. All the television I regularly desire access to is already on Netflix Instant, and my main set-top box is an Xbox 360, so Hulu Plus seems pointless (right now) in my…

@geminidude: Has it really been 2 months now? Damn.

@TaliaBurlington: Shit! I had forgotten about that.

This could be scarier than it sounds. What if Comcast decides to throttle Netflix Instant bandwidth in an effort to force customers into ordering DVDs through the new service?

I'm kind of disappointed to see no plans for WinPho7 in this roadmap. I'm switching to Verizon from T-Mo in November and really hoped to pick up one of them.
