    Since when have top line slashdot articles been links to 3 line blog posts? Perhaps in the future, we'd like to see someone who, you know, has something to say about the issue, rather than just announcing the thing.

      I saw this during the "subscriber preview", it looks to be slashdotted now, so I will inform people DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME on this link. It just goes to a blog which basically pointed to a game "War Incorporated". The "confirmation" was a supported devices list on the game page that included the 700p. The blog had a screenshot of the list, not the device, by the time I viewed the actual game page the 700p had been removed from the devices list.

      There was no information on the 700p, no photos of the 700p, nothing really at all about the 700p other than a reference to it in a devices list, big whoop. A very misleading slashdot story... Since it really is nothing we have not seen in regards to the 700p many times before...

      This was a waste of a slashdot story....

    I really question if people are fundamentally more efficient as people with all their extra doo-dahs and thingy-ma-jobs. I may have the worlds coolest phone but I still need to be at [the very least] a terminal to code properly. Nothing says impractical as typing C source code on a 3x4 numpad!

    I think most business types just carry that shit around for status. I mean in all my travels I see people having conference calls and shit on them but it's like, if the meeting was that important you wouldn't be sitting in an airport gate waiting to board...

    Also hates ringtones. I swear to god if I hear that stupid Razr flipfone default tone one more time I'll start killing people...
