The Pre is not exactly selling like hot cakes.

Nonsense. How is this insightful? Not only is the Pre selling well, it has already made it to the top 5 list of smart phones and webOS is now at 4% market share since release. http://metrics.admob.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/AdMob-Mobile-Metrics-Aug-092.pdf

I'm sure that if the iPhone 3.0 were available on Sprint your argument would make more since. Many of us have contracts with Sprint and/or just like Sprint better than AT&T.

Verizon Wireless CEO Lowell McAdam has just announced a number of new devices to be available from the carrier âoeover the next six months or soâ â" and they include the Palm Pre.âoe

Unlike the iPhone, though, the Palm Pre will be available on other networks as soon as 6 months from now. I'd bet on Sprint having the pre exclusive through the holidays.

Wait... Someone on slashdot not jumping on the "bash conservatives" bandwagon? And you're not AC? The only problem with your argument (though I don't believe this) is that many people believe "Human Life" doesn't begin until after the state that embryo's are harvested.

killproc writes "A new report suggests that interbreeding between humans and chimpanzees happened a lot more recently than was previously thought. The report, published in the most recent issue of the journal Nature, estimates that final break between the human and chimpanzee species did not come until 6.3 million years ago at the earliest, and probably less than 5.4 million years ago."
