I wouldn't get too excited. There have been many, many patents filed by apple in the past couple of years that have gotten a lot of attention/spectulation. As far as I can tell, so far none have come true.

Hello Chic0 There is a table on this page which lists the differences between 4200 vs 5400 vs 7200. It would seem the differences are quite small, though there are plenty of people who will argue there is a very noticable difference, and you should always go with a 7200 when available. I...

yes true FlashMac. That's the issue wth reviews -- people only bother leaving them when they have a problem, rarely when they have praise. Seems to me there is no great phone company, it really all comes down to coverage. Can someone explain why Apple even feels the need to tie themselves to a...

COuldn't you do this by using the pre-paid option? last I heard, you did not have to get their per-month plan. I'm with you, I am almost never not in range of wifi, whether it be at home or work, or at a friend's place. I don't want to add more $ to my monthly bills for something that I will...

Did you see the Q and A at the bottom? Q: No question. Just wanted to say good luck with your sale. It's cool to watch good all supply and demand at work. Happy eBaying! Jun-30-07 A: hell yea kid...this will pay for my newrx-7 if it ges threw...but i really think its a little to much fluff...

I don't own Parallels 3.0, but from what I have read it does not support DirectX 9+, which means you are limited to games that are a few years old or earlier. I feel confident they will update the app later to support later games, but at the moment it is a little limiting.Frankly I'm amazed...

I suppose, but you could just advertise the fact that someone can bring their own iPhone in to be unlocked, and charge X amount of dollars for the service. you'd make a killing!

aah cool. so could a 3rd party seller advertise it? If I owned a mobile phone store and could unlock an iPhone I would want to paint my windows with all sorts of advertising.

my understanding is that the Core 2 Duo was surprisingly good. Many experts were suggesting there would not be much of a jump, but it turned out it was quite noticable, at least in benchmark tests -- some tests 15% faster. Having said that, many tests were 8%, some exactly the same. And in...

yeah it is very light, relatively speaking. The Wii weighs just 3.82 pounds, where the Xbox 360 and PS3 tip the scales at 9.9 and 11 pounds, respectively. The Wii is also considerably smaller than the other consoles, at just 8.5" x 6.2" x 1.7"; the Xbox 360 measures 12.2" x 10.2" x 3.3", while...

let's say they have figured out how to unlock it, what does that mean exactly. What I mean is, is this something anyone could do -- like could John Smith buy an iPhone, bring it home, run some kind of crack software, then slip in his provider's SIM card and carry on? Or is it something that must...

It seemed plausible after iPhone.com was sold to apple for a 7-figure sum

yes, i had forgotten about online play -- that is a HUUGE dealbreaker for me. I'm certainly not going to sell mine, but no online play = very little re-playability. I do want a 360 -- I very much want to play God of War!

lol that is ridiculous. That is perhaps the easiest game of all to take advantage of the controller! I seem to remember reading that Nintendo had said Smash Bros would not implement gesture-based moves as they felt it "got in the way" of gameplay. If I find it I will post it here. if true, that...

oh no, i'm not suggesting I will sell it, just saying it has not been as overall impressive as I'd hoped. But you are right, it's just a lack of good games, and all consoles go through this period early on. Especially the Wii, seeing as 3rd party developers have very much written it off until...

I bought the Wii on launch day, and loved it, but I have not played it in 2 months aside from 1 night when friends came over a couple weeks ago. In fact, I was cleaning my apartment a week and a half ago and disconnected the Wii so that I could dust behind it. It has still not even been...

from all reports, Apple had to make some solid promises to AT&T in order to get everything they were asking for. Apple managed to get AT&T to keep the rates low, implement a radical change to the voice mail system, and partner with them before they even had a prototype. They are locked in for 5...

aren't they required to provide a way to unlock the phone by the FCC? i could be wrong -- no expert in these matters.

thanks for the review scott. I am eager to see what the general consensus is around the podcasting and blogging community. While I don't expect iPhone haters will stop hating the iPhone, I hope they will at least acknowledge their mistakes regarding keyboard, etc; so far people seem to be saying...
