I agree. I don't know what the story is as they have been doing this with old fighters for decades.

Just went from P-Tel (used to be Sprint CDMA now is T-Mobile GSM) to Ecomobile (Sprint). T-Mobile has virtually no coverage on their own equipment in my state, so I had to find another MVNO. Thought of trying a Verizon or AT&T MVNO, but I know that Verizon's coverage at my house is crap. Ecomobile's rates are pretty much the same as P-Tel's though. Talk 5/min, Text 2/text, Data 10/mb, MMS 10/mms.
Works great for someone that uses the phone as a phone, and not as an internet terminal.

RoadSkill or RoadsKill? PetSmart or PetsMart? ExpertSexchange or ExpertsExchange?

Wired is still around? Really, not being snotty, I thought they were long gone.

Most of the sysadmins that I work with don't use twitter and/or facebook.

I ended up uninstalling Xbox music because it would stop playing while I was playing my own mp3 files. I can understand that if I were streaming, but I wasn't.

Yep, confirmed, javascript.enabled;true is still there. Also, noscript works fine on 23.

Yep, this the only thing I use Google Voice for. I usually get the gist of the message.

First thing I thought of when I read the summary.

I drive a 300hp car, and keep the cruise control right around the speed limit. That way I average 21 mpg on my daily commute.

That doesn't work they way you think it works. They have tons more information on you they don't show. Just because you have search history off doesn't mean they don't have it. It only means they don't show it to you.

Concerning WebOS. My wife tried android on her HP touchpad and promptly went back to WebOS. She probably uses the touchpad more than her desktop.

Yeah.. I was looking for a digital version of some ancient vinyl I have. It's pretty obscure and never released on CD. I found half the tracks from album on youtube.

The real lock in is a G+ account. I am guessing they hope people will sign up for G+ so they can chat. I am guessing that most that are not on G+ won't bother.

I think they will have a hell of a time domain-blocking YouTube. It's trivial to grab all kinds of stuff there.
