Yes! And depending on usage patterns, you may end up more ambidextrous as a result.

Does this hold true when you're traveling out of the country? Most of the US add-on 'unlimited' plans fall in that same price range, but only within the country. As soon as you start traveling, data (and voice) gets a hefty per-use charge added on to it.

You didn't run Steve Jobs through it? For shame: Cap'n Bernard Mauvebeard. Or Linus Torvalds for that matter: "Fancypants" Nigel Scabb.

Submission + - Parallels 3.0 Announced, 3D graphics included (blogspot.com)
99BottlesOfBeerInMyF writes: For some time now a lot of us having been waiting to see who managed to bring 3D graphics to a Windows emulation/virtualization solution. It looks like Parallels is going to be the winner. They announced today an RC of Parallels 3.0, the final to be available "in a few weeks." For anyone else tired of bootcamp or rebooting to play a Windows game, it look like the answer is finally here.
I'm not counting out VMWare entirely. Obviously it will depend on how soon they can catch up and the relative quality of the solutions, but there is some serious first-mover advantage here. There is also some speculation on the forums that Parallels is rushing this out in order to sell product before Apple steals their thunder with virtualization support in Leopard (but I think that a bit unlikely). In any case, it looks like one more roadblock for switchers has just been knocked down.
