> Many PC games are priced like Laserdisks. They are not priced, then lowered in price a year later like DVDs. No, games generally come down in price 6 months later, on the PC anyway. Then a while after that you get the game, all the expansions and patches for $20.
I never bought hardbacks to begin with, but several hundred paperbacks adorn my shelves.
I would much rather lose a single paperback to either forgetfulness, water damage or a friend borrowing and never returning it that losing my ereader that way.
Of course, scalpers pay people to stand in line at plenty of places around the area to buy the tickets at face value on the day they go on sale so they have an over abundance of tickets to resell at a higher price.

have you been inside a borders lately? They look like they have been barely scraping by for years...
How is the iPad and making phone calls on the cell network?
's funny, my android device has plenty of apps for that as well. Yelp, movies, etc.
You mean like City ID on my Verizon android phone? 14 day trial then 2.99 a month afterwards.
I guess the iPhone does have 5 pages of fart apps in the app store.

It's also nice to see what's being displayed, not fingerprints or a reflection of your face.
It doesn't even do that, I regularly see a 3-400MB chrome process. and that's just one tab

and gets delivered on Tuesday, instead of Monday, and the replacement disc goes out a day later. Thus, decreasing the Netflix workload
No, I mean less. If it's picked up on Saturday it is sent on and received on Monday. If it is picked up on Monday it is received on Tuesday.
I guess you have never heard of the throttling they have been accused of.
