If you feel comfortable with istalling Linux yourself, get a Chromebook Pixel and slap Linux onto it. Amazing hardware, great design and perfect compatibility with Linux, since ChromeOS is also based on Linux.

You can very easily run ChromeOS and Linux at the same time, you can use ChromeOS for the basic stuff and even run Linux in a window inside ChromeOS or you can wipe the Pixel clean and go Linux-only (that requires some more fiddling though).

Namecoin?

Seriously guys there are WAY easier and cheaper ways to record people without their consent. Spy glasses were there for years and privacy is the dumbest thing to point out in Google Glass. It's a huge misconception that Glass changes anything in that matter. Try actually using Glass for a few hours before you voice your opinion. It's a very limited device for now, but it's very shortsighted to dismiss its potential.

My Android phone has a FM tuner and a dedicated camera button. As for integration with MS products I couldn't care less (but I see that for some people it could be an advantage).

ConnectBot + HTC Desire Z rocks. Works like a charm.

it was probably all porn anyways

Yeah, exactly! In fact the phones are so unusable they tried to replace the text with little images resembling features of the phone, but kinda failed at it, too.

"Hello I'd like to buy that Nokia phone. Is the 10-hour video recording traning session included in the price? And what's the minimum required IQ for the maps feature?"

I get it that advertising won't be enough, but I'd be more than glad to pay a few bucks a month to get sites like pandora or hulu working. Actually I pay for US-based proxy, so I CAN access these services for a small fee, it just sucks that this money goes to hosting company not to the content providers.

Exactly! It really pisses me off that I'm locked out just because I don't live in the states anymore. No wonder torrent sites flourish.

Never.
