"1 GB of either of these formats will run you about $100."
No it will run you about 60$.
"Compared to a 40GB drive at the iPod price, that's terrible."
Yea, but see your Axim can play video while your iPod cant (despite what this FA claims). An iPod is also cheaper then a new car, but it works better for some things.
"If you're trying to watch a video on the subway, you're kind of SOL."
Other then the problem of telling everyone on the subway that you have too much free money, I dont find this to be a problem. You can fit a LOT of video in 512MB-4GB of storage (which can be gotten for cheap these days).
Or you could just buy somthing that can play both video and audio. Like a PDA or one of the many portable media centers on the market. This is like saying that your printer can play movies if you print out each frame and then flip through them.
" So if local workers have decided to lower their salary expectation to match or better those of overseas workers, will company do in-sourcing instead?"
You cant lower your salary enough to compete with overseas workers unless you can live out of a cardboard box and eat nothing but 10 cent raman.

"Gee, the resolution looks just fine on my 60" HDTV"
Then you must have REALY bad eyes. That or your think "fine" means being unable to cover the pixels with your thumb.

I can deal with the lack of a keyboard and mouse, and as others have said you CAN use them on an XBox. What I cant deal with is the dumbed down interface and low res graphics.
The next Big Thing will be when you all get a life and stop pretending that your opinion is important enough to take up space on the internet. Video-bloging is just another "thing" of no importantance. It all makes me sick, I should write an entry in my blog about it.
Come on now, we just passed the stem cell research bond messure that we have to pay for some how. Where did you think all the money was gona come from?
Last I checked you could pop a bee into the freezer for a few days and it will recover after you thaw it. Could this not explain how insects and other simple life forms survived the climet change caused by such an impact?
Having played the first one when it was great and then again once they released it and it was repetitive and boring I cant say I realy give a damn anymore. Besides, what the hell are you doing playing a FPS on a console?
"I think it's time for USA to take responsibility for all the global pollution it causes and admit the long term consequences.
You forget what our duly elected president said, "It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities
in our air and water that are doing it".
"There is only so much I can take of seeing the same torture sequences."
So its the games fault that you only figured out how to use one device for torture?

Other then a vauge similarity in shape there is nothing in common twixt the two systems. The macintosh for instance never could deal with steroscopic graphics (I know because I tried for a few years).
"If crack cocaine is so bad, why do people kill for it?"
Because its highly addictive and lets them forget about how much their life otherwise sucks. Sorry, dont see the paralel to bad movies here. I can quit seeing Quentin Tarantino films any time I want. I just dont want to.

Can't you read? It says iPod right there in the subject line.

You would also need a HECK of a lot of wind farms to produce any noticeable amount of energy.
"One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do Two can be as bad as one, its the loneliest number since the number one"
Perhaps you do. When the job market gets tight employers will offer less and less because they know you cant go anyplace else.
Costs to get a security clearance start at around 50,000 and require sponsership. Its not like you can just walk in and fill out a form to get one.

While I could be wrong, I seem to recal pronography existing prior to the Internet.
