I'm hoping the E-reader from Plastic Logic ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_Logic ) will be a great improvement. Its display is said to be A4-sized, which would give it a diagonal of a little over 14".
The biggest problem with most readers still seems to be the software, though. Either it's chock-full of DRM, or it's seriously lacking in features. Hopefully this one'll be different.
What's all this talk about 1 GB or 2 GB SD cards? Come on, 16 GB cards are available for as little as 32 euros, and the 32 GB cards ~100 euros. Buying a dozen of 16 GB SD cards costs less than 400 euros. Surely a professional could cough up that amount.
Ok, that does it. I'd love to ditch Creative, but what alternatives are there? Are there any cards out there that run well under both XP and Linux? And, dare I ask, Vista?
"Fossil fuels in the last century reached their extreme prices because of their inherent utility: they pack a great deal of potential energy into an extremely efficient package. If we can but sidestep the 100 million year production process, we can corner this market once again."

Oh, come on! A game with ASCII graphics, but over 9 MB large? What the heck?!
I hope they'll call them Compressed Binary Tunes. Or CBT, for short.
I find Cygwin a little too heavy; mostly I just need grep, sed, awk, etc. That's why I prefer using UnxUtils ( http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/ ).
And more importantly, where would you keep that much lube?

What the heck does DHT stand for? Department of Home Terrorism?
And got laid just as often, I'll bet.

It's called flirting.
Laws, pffft. They're really more a set of guidelines, anyway!
The cancer of my cancer is my friend.
Brings a whole new meaning to the term "root"-kit...
-Of course- we're all expanding! Haven't you heard of global warming??
Yeah, it brings a whole new meaning to the term information -highway-...
That's easy; feed the paper coming out of the printer through some sort of OCR machine.
But they need those tubes for their internets!
I think you mean:

In fact, why not install the BugMeNot extension for Firefox?
