I had 2 blackberry's and a palm treo before I settled on the Motorola Ming A1200. It runs linux (yes I am a *nix fanboy), I can view info on the cell tower I am on, including SNR and location, ect. I can run a ton of software, emulators, ect. It also has a touchscreen interface and it's not something everyone else on the block has.
The only gripe I have is that it doesn't have WiFi but it does have Edge through a software hack so the internet is useable. Plus it is reasonably priced compared to the others in it's league at $245.00 with no contract.
If your looking for a good smart phone I highly recommend it to anyone.
I saw them at walmort over a month ago. The only thing I find very deceptive is the 3 walmart's I have now seen them in, is that they are actually in the video game section, mixed in with the Wii accessories.
I knew instantly it was a scam, however parents and grand parents that will be buying gifts this christmas season will easily be duped. The package coloring is also very similar to the Wii color scheme. The only reason for that is to mislead and trick someone into purchasing something other then what they think they are.
Honestly, I think that this type of obvious attempt at tricking a consumer into buying something should be regulated..
Rockstar also admits most the pixles used in the game are imported from china and covered in lead paint. The game disk lable is also printed with lead based paint. Rockstar states that all children under 18 should lick the disk prior to playing for the game to have maximum effect on there youn minds.
Dude you have no fucking clue, there are dozens of games that I own multiple copies of factory sealed. It's an investment several games on ebay got for $500+ sealed.
It's an investment, I also have a factory sealed NES, SNES, Master System, Gameboy, Atari Jaguar, Atari Lynx ect...
I collect everything to do with games so don't tell me what I have and don't have. If I don't have to open a copy to play it it simply adds value to my collection and saves me a bit of money.
I knew that the rumors that nintendo was planning there own flash cart for the DS were probably true when nintendo started raiding manufactures of other flash cards. I personally own a RD4 and love it. The homebrew scene on the DS rocks and not to mention the fact that I can load all my DS games onto one cart and not have to carry extra crap around to play everything rules.
I also hate buying a game and hating it so if I can DL it and try it out first all the better. Plus being a collector I can buy the game leave it factory sealed and still play the copy I downloaded. If I like the game I will support the company and but it but if it's crap and I am only going to play it for a few min then I have no problem dl'ing a copy for that purpose.
True, to a point. He should not however abuse that power. If he were the CEO of a company the board of directors would have booted his arrogant ass out the door.
Aside from the war in Iraq Dictator bush has desimated our economy, done nothing to improve education or anything else of any value since he took office.
I would hate to be any president stepping into the mess bush is leaving for them. They will spend there entire term trying to clean up all the shit and have no time to address any real issues.
I hate to tell you this but in America, it is a democracy! The president should execute the will of "THE PEOPLE" not what he personally thinks is correct. That's the problem we are having now, a president that does whatever the fuck HE wants regardless of what the PEOPLE he represents are asking for!

You play D&D and you have a wife! What kind of arcane magic is this? It's power is like nothing I have ever seen.

I can't wait to hear the new slogan at the start of every EA game!
"Bioware's Code..It's in the Game!"

Highly doubtfull, they will simply use some other unlawfull, unethical, tactic to get the information they need to go after whoever they see fit.
The RIAA needs to get their ass handed to them in a high profile counter suit before they will even think about changing their tactics!

Yes but the games from china come covered in lead pixels!!
That someone can figure out a way to stop Comcast from injecting fake packets so my pr0n & warez downloads finish faster.

Blah.. It wasn't that funny then, it's still not that funny here. I'm pretty sure it still sucked when it was released.
