Comment Price too high (Score 1) 337

im sorry but $700 for a waterproof e-ink tablet... is what you are paying for...
this is stupid, the price should be below $100, expecially if they want to mass produce it.. AND covered by rego costs.
and as you have the SAME result with a metal plate, with NO monthly fee, anyone who buys this is plain idiotic and is just doing it for attention.

Comment Packaging... (Score 4, Interesting) 169

love the quote" The algorithms use machine learning to test out new combinations -- for example, shipping a breakable item in a smaller box with less cushioning. The algorithm can scan customer reviews and other data to see if it worked and adjust as needed."

so peoples packages are now used for "testing"... well that lamp broke... oh well, try something new....that poor person at the end of it now has a broken lamp to deal with.

Comment Other side of the coin (Score 1) 246

it _IS_ possible that when ISP's start to charge for content, that others will use this opporunity to rebrand services which are free... as a bonus..
For example when Comcast charges $5/mo for access to facebook, a competitor can give that access free ... hence everyone changes to that ISP cause they are now offering a better service... and on that.. that company publicly stated that service is free.. they start charging for it, then the FCC has them by the balls...

THEN, when Trump gets kicked out.. the new president may change things back... but who knows.. i dont live in the USA.
