  1. You mean Internet Explorer for Windows by SweetAndSourJesus · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    IE5/Mac was, at the time of it's release, the most standards compliant browser in history.

    IE6/Win isn't doing so bad either, really. I've found that most of the XHTML/CSS2 sites I author work fine in IE6/Win.

  2. Why not just give us some decent cell phones by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Honestly how many years do we have to wait before north america starts receiving some decent cell phones that have most of these functions.

    I've used the PocketPC and I hate it. It's a big bulky piece of crap. Give me a sleek Japanese multimedia phone any day of the week.

    Speaking of cell phones in the usa. Why does the land of capitalism lag behind the rest of the world when it comes to cell phones and cellular networks.

    Isn't "capitalism" supposed to be the fastest way to usher in innovation and progress? I bet if it weren't for Europe and Asia, the USA would be content holding 10lbs cell phones.
