I wouldnt want to watch video in public. I've seen someone watching a video on a PSP, and the person sitting beside her kept trying to steal a glance at the screen without being too obvious. If I was her and I caught someone doing that I'd be pissed off!
Why would you be annoyed? You're still watching it, and your enjoyment shouldn't be affected because some of the photons that would otherwise escape to infinity (or get absorbed by some nearby atoms) are instead going into someone elses retinas.

Realtor has been a plain ol' word for many years. Do you have a reference?

That's what these people want you to think in order to get people to use their services preferentially! It's most certainly not a plain ol' word!

It's pretty obvious these people are as thick as the proverbial 2 short blanks.
Mr kettle, will you accept a call from a Mr. Pot?
Only Canadians are allowed to say "Eh?" eh?
The hype is in the second link... the rumor on thinksecret.com

8-bit CPU & 16 colour display.... not the same thing.
Frankenstein was sewn together. Not cut apart.
Umm, Frankenstein's Monster was made of random body parts, not the Doctor himself!
Poor old Peter Cushing...
Would be nice too if Apple would fix OS X so it didn't reset all the #@*& USB buses 1.5 seconds into boot, so we could boot X off our flash drives.
True, but you can boot OS X from a FW flash drive.

If you find them, that is evidence for your theory; if you don't, evidence against.
The lack of something in the fossil record is not evidence against a theory; it's just proof that you're not looking hard enough.
How is the demand infinite?
Ummm.. the grandparent poster said that supply was effectively infinite, not demand.
Ditty and Diddy have extremely similar phonetics. In colloquial usage, people will pronounce them identically
This may be true in the U.S./Canada, but not true for the rest of the English-speaking world.
Whooooooooooosh
That's the sound of you missing the point.
Check out this (abysmal) photo for more stopwatch fun. http://www.appleinsider.com/image.php?i=ipodnano23 &id=1266
I hope the new functionality of the nano will be availabe to the older iPods in the form of a firmware update soon!
The new search is kinda snazzy
Wow, you actually managed to download a copy of iTunes 5 before the servers melted down?
And who's to blame for that? You reap what you sow.
Neither does anyone else.
They do have such a system -- what do you think triggers the masks to drop from the ceiling?
I'm guessing the plane wasn't on autopilot at the time, and I'm not sure allowing the pressure system to switch it on is such a good idea.
I'd probably define the laws of physics before creating the universe!
Oops!
and been clearer to boot.
Just like your name would be clearer as -0.618!
Point well taken though.
There is no "us". There's just some (power-hungry?) guy speaking in "our" name.
That is logical nonsense. How can there be no "us", while there can be someone speaking in "our" name?
Umm, that would be the control key, not the command key! :)
What's that asterisk doing there? ;)
Shows what you know!
Always nice to read such well-reasoned arguments on Slashdot.
