Check out Facebook Lists. They're the same thing as circles, and have been around pretty much forever.

I think they'd expect to lose a lot of customers (more than from throttling) if they didn't allow us to keep our unlimited plans?

Just a guess.

Not necessarily. I have unlimited data with AT&T, and I am still under contract for quite a while yet. I signed up with AT&T with unlimited data on my iPhone 3g, and when I upgraded to a 4, I got to keep my unlimited data but I got the upgrade price for the 4 by renewing my contract (and the unlimited data was grandfathered). Hell, if I did the same thing with the iPhone 5 or whatever this fall I could still have unlimited data and be under contract until 2014.

I wish I hadn't commented yet. That's the best idea I've ever seen.

Oh we do, but it's tricky. You would have to port your number out of your carrier BEFORE telling them you want to cancel for XYZ reason without ETF, which means you're pretty much committed to the fight at that point. If you cancel your service first, you just gave up any right to that phone number and you're pretty much SOL for porting it.

(IANAL but I used to work in number porting for a telecom)

Wow, you had 17 bad drives out of a consecutive total of 19 drives? You should probably never play the lottery. Or go outside in a lightning storm. Or really put yourself at risk for any sort of statistically unlikely bad thing (shark attacks? airplane crashes?)

While there have been some exploits that allow jailbreaking via website, the vast majority (all of the IOS 5, so far) vulnerabilities require the phone to be put into DFU mode. If there's a vulnerability in the OS while running in a mode specifically designed for altering the OS from outside of the OS, I don't think that's a very big deal (security wise).

Because one can be disproven, and the other can't? Don't get me wrong, I'm an atheist, but fan death and god are hardly in the same category.

Caprica was terrible. I wanted to like it so bad but it was just far too slow.

From what I've read, not quite. Apparently he took the first step, then another group (Fail0verflow IIRC) took the next step, then Geohot was the one who actually got the private key.

I think you might want to see a counselor. Did Steve Jobs run over your dog?

Reading comprehension.

"And yet happens when you root and load that ROM and brick your phone?"

The word brick implies you'd be unable to flash it back, and thus, it would be a brick.

Perhaps you have a bad card? Also, you've been able to use generic ATI drivers with a notebook (except with certain notebook vendors, which I'd assume is more *their* fault than AMD's) since the HD2000 series at least. I think ATI started doing generic drivers before NVidia even did.

Hardware problem. I've got 3 Windows 7 Machines, all running with 4870s, one of which running with a 4870x2 CF setup. Not a single problem related to the video card across the board.

I personally think Brotherhood is *excellent* in both SP and MP. I feel like the MP is innovative and finally provides an experience that's outside of which is refreshing. The SP, while not -better- than AC2 isn't bad, either. It's mostly more of the same, but refined a bit and with some interesting new dynamics (recruiting the novice assassins, etc)

While I can totally understand it not being for everyone, I've noticed several reviews seem to agree with my stance. So EA isn't completely full of shit.
