Comment Re:Too costly (Score 1) 322

Now, it's true I like in "retarded America" and thus I must be a retarded American, but this part confused me: "150 mins (300 american mins)". While money has exchange rates, I'm fairly sure that our clocks use the same size minutes as the rest of the world. What exactly did that part mean?

I really really really don't want to lose my faith in humanity because of this...

Oh, come on over, having no faith in humanity isn't that bad. Life's great when you are at peace with the knowledge that at least global warming will obliterate mankind now that we've managed to muck up nuclear annihilation by disarming.

To everyone who tagged this "domyjobforme", I hope every single one of you gets the same response the next time you ask for help doing you job. At least this guy had the sense to say, "Hey, there's a community of people that contains a multitude of experts in many fields, I bet someone might have some good suggestions." And guess what else? Maybe some readers will find the suggestions helpful too. Ask Slashdot is for questions that the general community might find interesting and helpful, not just one guy. It's not just about the submitter, and it's certainly not about your need to be snide to those who recognize their shortcomings and try to expand their base of knowledge.

Wow. I'll reboot my 810 every few months and that's it. It's rock solid for me. The 800 was originally released at 330mhz or so, and OS2008 bumped it up to 400 like the 810 has, so maybe the 800 is flakier at the higher speed? The 810 is a fantastic machine to me.

Most people don't want to spend $500 or more for a phone. And the plans were outrageously priced. You could have had a nice sized LCD display in 2003 too, but it was quite expensive. You could have had a 20megabit fiber connection to the internet in 2003, it was very expensive.

You're confusing existence with commonality. Most people had none of those things three years ago, now you can get any of them for $100 or less.
