My son's backpack, 4 years old at the time, was searched once because the matchbox cars looked suspicious under x-ray. Amusing as hell at first but they took their time. Almost missed our flight.

Even if you do win, you probably wouldn't like how they "settle their debts".

I'd say the design limitation is the 16GB of storage on the iPhone. (as opposed to the Droid which can easily be updated when 32gb micro SD cards come out) If a person can't figure out how to store graphics and level maps on the SD card, I don't think that person has any business designing games.

So, the "turn around and cancel" option is $179 + $350 ... for a net price of $529. Identical to the "just buy it unlocked" price.

Seems like a 100% reasonable ETF to me (far moreso than Verizon's ETF of twice the phone "discount" to cover "phone assistance" and "network upgrades" per their statement to the FTC).

>For a guy that is supposed to be a step ahead tech-wise, apparently he doesn't understand that people want a portable device that is easy to read.

Early in the computer revolution, the idea of a centralized application on dedicated hardware was popular. People envisioned computers that just ran word processors or just ran whatever stand alone application. For a little while this worked but it turns out what people want is to be able to break away from expensive dedicated hardware and just run software on a commodity machine.

Whats going on now is that people are just asking "Why must I pay $400 dollars, cant I just run this on my laptop?"

Unfortunately for nutty McFuturist, Amazon has already beaten him to the punch. You can read a Kindle book on a Kindle, on an ipod/iphone, or on a PC. I suspect the Nook will be doing this soon. Essentially, these companies are just competing on DRM formats. Not much else.

Phone taps generally require a warrant, and I don't think that police engage in a great deal of home surveillance using helicopters.

You are leaving out medical costs from long term coffee use. Yes, to much coffee regularly takes a toll, especially on the heart. And just so you know, almost everyone drinks it in enough quantities to be damaging. IN about 15 more years there is going to be an 'epidemic' of heart problems.

Not ever drinking caffeine is far better for productivity.

Because farming is legal in China. That is why there is a Chinese server meant for those players. Or at least it was in the works.

In eve, most farmers are Russians.

You copy the iso as-is and put the disc away. If you need to save disk space or format-shift, you transcode the iso image, and not the disc.

I'm not sure - can you clarify where exactly they are on the release cycle?

Ahh, but that is why one should first consult the Book of Armaments.

Wrong. Law abiding citizens carry guns in public to stop people from robbing or murdering them. We don't want to murder anyone and would only fire as a last resort. In many self defense situations no shots are fired, merely producing the weapon stops most attacks. You have nothing to fear from law abiding concealed carry holders unless you are a criminal. If people want to carry guns to murder as you claim, then why are crime rates down while the number of guns only increases? http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/glance.htm

So that's how they get their lasers!
