Geez, 50 for a cable (or a DC/DC converter if it's even that)? I carry a $10 power inverter, that comes with 1AC output and 1USB port. I've traveled recently on many airplanes with AC outlets and some with this cigarette lighter connector. Flights on crappy jets are probably less than 1 hour long anyways.

Which is interesting and important to understand. As I worked on satellite communications, we had to, sometimes, track down stations where cabling was going bad and IF transmitters would pick a radio station which would end up interfering with another satellite frequency. The station would have to be moved down to base band and decoded to find out an estimated location by listening to the station for a while. Then check the frequency map (if the information was available from the frequency allocation people) and send someone to fix the cabling.

I got the GoogleTV from Sony, and works great for me. Yes, it's underpowered, but it has what I need, Netflix runs fine and despite some random hangs (probably had two issues) they recover "gracefully" without me having to resort to hard resets or anything. Most of those issues have been related to Adobe Flash apps running on websites I try to visit.

Other than that, I like and enjoy using it, if I need something the TV cannot provide (some websites requiring particular browsers or flash versions), I connect to it using WiDi or HDMI and launch programs from my laptop.

As long as you don't forget and start replying to yourself non-AC, seems like fair game.

You mean like those of Stephenie Meyer?

But but but... this is on the Internet. Doesn't that at least violates a patent somewhere?

Probably someone left the keys in a bar in San Francisco. Isn't that the way it works these days?

What about extending the business. Those guys drive around those cars all day. Why not put ads on their cars like they do on public transportation.

Oh well... I'm just really sorry for Kevin Bacon, that guy is going to have a hard time defending himself in court.

Not that it's great, but on my surface I can plug any usb flash drive, and works like a charm. I can also use that usb port to charge my phone if I want to, no adapters needed.

Honestly, the supporting argument gives me the impression that it's sadness, but hidden in fear. Seems to me that better, newer satellites won't help without proper models. The summary makes me think that the importance of the satellites is not as critical as improving weather modeling.

While I don't swap batteries, my galaxy has hanged a couple of times requiring to remove the battery to force a restart. While my wife's HTC is great, I'm not confident of having non removable batteries. Now, on topic, I think the apple effect has launched samsung to a better position due to the patent war, altogether with an escalation in offensive advertisement from samsung.

How is this vehicle limited use? This vehicle comes with a perfect timing after the release of Apple maps. That's how innovation is motivated!

Unless the pill is permanent, I'd go ahead and guess that it's the uneducated the one not taking the pill anyways, and the source of those problems.

Interestingly, my first HTC was a WinMobile 5. The so called Wizard. Great hardware at the time.
