911 is a public service.
...paid for by taxes and fees. how else are you going to pay for public services?
But as long as 911 is something society in general has decided is a good thing, then society in general needs to pay for it.
...for example, paid through a $1/month surcharge on cell phone lines?
Call me naive, but i'm not seeing the evil evil here. If att were billign $1 per 911 call (eg 1-900-911), then that might be somethign to get upset about, but otherwise what's the big deal.
bahahaha
and my phone company just tacked on an extra $1/month for 911 service
Those greedy bastards!
what's your point? VMo, $30 / month, $550 iphone 4. how is that not the low end/???
lmgtfy: vmo plas run 35-55, with a special promotional 30 plan for the new iphone. cricket has just a 55 plan which is equivalent in features to the vmo 55 plan. so the iphone comes out CHEAPER than the htc in TCO.
sounds like a place to keep my bitcoins...
ok. direct me to the laptop that is that thin for 15" and 220ppi screen. I really want to buy something that it technically "better". oh yeah ideally it should cost less than the mbp as well. i await your answer.
2. You are supposed to responsibly dispose of batteries. That can be rather difficult if they are non replaceable.
you can take any apple product into an apple store and they will dispose of it properly for you. they probably have a mail-in service as well. best buy has a similar program. you can sell old hardware in an amazon buy-back program and get a couple bucks. you can flip it on craigslist. So don't pretend that you need to throw the whole thing in the trash.
lame. you could buy a 3rd party battery on amazon for $30. if you choose to spend $150, don't complain about it.
I don't feel that continued broadening of executive power without oversight mechanisms is a good thing to do.
the problem is, the power of "rogue states" has increased several fold over the past 15 years or so. 9/11, subway attacks, wmds, training camps overseas. US needs expanded capabilities to meet these threats. this has been accomplished through broadening of executive power. This is one possible mechanisms, and others are viable i suppose. i would rather that obama have additional powers, rather than the army for example.
the ipad battery can be replaced by apple for $129. you give them your ipad, they give you a refurbished ipad. Not sure how they're going to replace the batteries on the macbook pro with retina display. I will be paying close attention to this issue.
btw the iphone 4 is available on cricket for $400 and your htc evo is on vmo for $300, so the price disparity is small at best.
