How is the current war with Iraq a war of self defence when even GWBush himself has conceeded that Saddam Hussein never sought nuclear weapons in Africa, never worked together with Bin Laden and that there are no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?
They're probably also going to be shocked when they discover people won't rush out to buy fuel cell powered laptops either.
What, you mean people would rather be able to recharge their laptop batters for free and in the convienence of their own homes/offices instead of searching frantically from store to store for a six pack of new fuel cells?
Ask the millions of unemployed about their opinions on "overworking". I'm sure they'd be glad for ANY work.
In this economy not too many people can go up to their boss and declare they are going to work less just because they feel like it. Can you afford to do this?

How does one enjoy a higher standard of living when they spend so much time working?
You don't HAVE a right to watch. So quit bitching over something you never had. If its not in the Bill of Rights (for our US viewers) or the UN Charter of Human Rights then it isn't a right!
So the UN has complete and total control over the US Military right? Right.
By the way Clinton did in fact give the order to kill Bin Laden. Its just our agents weren't successful. Before 9/11 no one was going to authorize a huge military operation just to kill one middling terrorist.

What are you going to do when you reach the end of your life and realize that being uber-anti-social isn't worth dying alone?
Oh come on now. You know as well as I do that its no fun for the slashbots unless its so hard to use that the device is assured its own doom due to a staggering lack of sales!
The term "Smartphone" is not a specific phone or brand but a category. It includes everything from the Handspring Treo's to the Kyocera Smartphones to the PocketPC Smartphones. And the overwhelming majority of them have active touch screens.
What are you a retard? How long would anyone let someone else borrow their cell phone? And how many people are good enough with computers and PDAs in general to be able to 1. figure out that you have important data on the device and 2. be able to export it in a usable fashion so that they still have the data after they hand the device back to you?

Since so many people have cell phones these days very few are actually annoyed when others use theirs. Your mentality is a throwback to when it was actually unique and cool to own a cell phone. But now literally everyone has one so you are actually annoying people who are TRYING to get in touch with you but cannot. If your real goal is to avoid annoyince then you really have no choice but to get a cell phone.
Just what exactly annoys you about cell phones anyway? When you hear someone talking are you pissed they aren't talking to someone next to them or to you? Are you pissed you can't hear the other half of their conversation? I just never understood the whole "I am annoyed by others who have cells" phenomenon.
As for cell plans, even the cheapest plans offer a set amount of minutes per month in addition to free nights and weekends. When's the last time you actually had a cell phone?

A Palm isn't a half-assed PDA. Its the standard of PDA's. Should another PDA maker live up to its features and price point that would actually be a good thing.

What does marital status have to do with the level of care one gives their child?
Not everyone can stay together. That doesn't mean they don't want to care for their children however.

Dude, thats classic.
Eliminating scarcity is impossible. When nothing is scarce, there will be a scarcity of real purpose in life.

There's nothing unjust about living in a right-to-work society. Well maybe the lazy and unmotivated think so.

Tell that to all the Palm OS and PocketPC based Smartphones out there.
I use my Kyocera 7135 Palm OS 4.1 smartphone for regular PDA tasks. No difference between its PDA performance and that of a standalone PDA.
A Palm isn't a half-assed PDA. Its the standard of PDA's. Should another PDA maker live up to its features and price point that would actually be a good thing.
MOST Smartphones have touch screens. The ones without touch screens are the exceptions. Please mod this comment down quickly.
