They did it for Verizon. Here's my reasoning: Android 2.2 includes a free feature to turn the phone into a WAP. With Droid X, you can pay Verizon $20/month to do the same thing. Droid X starts out as Android 2.1 but will be updated to 2.2. I'm sure that its 2.2 will disable stock Android 2.2's free WAP feature, so as not to compete with the $20/month offering. If Motorola allowed modders to install a stock Android 2.2, Verizon might not make as much money off this new feature.

It happens with
my other account
too. I think the
comment window is
even narrower in
IE7 than in firefox

So, three different browsers, two different usernames, and three different machines, with two different operating systems, all give me a narrow comment box.

Somehow I don't think it's just me.

Media-capable PCs are only noisy if you build them as if they're servers. There are plenty of quiet parts: drives, fans, heatsinks, etc.

Actually, the Dragon box is much quieter than the TiVO it's currently sitting next to. :-)
