    Well that just the same old elitist "nothing but junk on TV" line. In my opinion there are plenty of good shows on TV, in fact more than I even have time to watch. Saying that there is nothing good to watch is pretty much the same when old people are crumby about how everything was better before and teens can't behave now. Now I get off your lawn!

  2. Based on Honeycomb by bigsexyjoe · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think everyone knows that HoneyComb (Android 3.0) is a stop gap Google made because Ice Cream (Android 4.0) wasn't ready. Since HoneyComb is a code dead-end, that will be abandoned after Android 4.0 comes out, isn't it clear we should wait for a Google TV based off Ice Cream or a later version of Android?

    Here we go again.

    Every time I click on a news story involving Google, I'm all but positive that the first post will be:
    a) Posted with a 2.5+ million UID
    b) Over 100 words long, yet still posted the same minute the story goes live
    c) Negative towards Google

    Here we go again. Welcome back CmdrPony / InsightIn140Bytes / DCTech. Happy shilling. Hope you karma manages to hold out for more than 4 days this time.
