If you're like me and are wondering what the heck a gimbal is, wikipedia has an article.
Wikipedia says a Gimbal is "a type of coin-operated arcade game where a player attempts to score points by manipulating one or more metal balls on a playfield inside a glass case. " Well, looks like I've learned something today!
Excellent!
Not at the current access rates they won't. I've used WAP once, and after getting my bill, I was through. Many people I know had the same experience with it.
Sprint's got a pretty decent thing going: it's $10/month extra for unlimited wireless internet usage, and it doesn't eat into your minutes. I use it with my laptop + PDANet, which basically utilizes the treo as a wireless modem
The companies said they wanted to encourage more mobile users to access the internet using their phones."
Well, they could do that by offering screens with an acceptable resolution for browsing the internet. Even the *brand new* Treo 700w only has a 240x240 screen. WTF?
Amateur astronomy can be entertaining if 1) you resolve yourself to reading astronomy-related history on cloudy nights, 2) you don't live in an area of high light pollution and 3) you don't live in an area with a lot of biting insects....
So you do most of your skywatching from the moon, then?
So Apple, and now google, have video offerings. Video blogs are popping up all over.... and microsoft is just getting around to launching a music store (that, by the way, isn't even open yet).

I realize that Microsoft expects to be able to dominate by competing brutally on price, and by leveraging the xbox platform, but how much of a head start are they going to give Google?

I do not want to live near the (military) airport where that thing will take off.
The scramjet engine only starts to work at speeds above Mach 5. Average takeoff speed for a regular plane is about 150mph.
neat scramjet pictures here.
From TFA, file jumping will only happen "Based on what you have been listening to in the past and which files you already own".
Yeah, but we all know how well that type of system has worked in the past.
Hard, physical proof that someone is a music pirate!
I thought that was the eyepatch, the tricornered hat with the jolly roger on it, and the parrot on the shoulder?
yarr.....
or even worse... getting Dashboard Confessional from some emo kid.
Is that what they're calling it? So that's what happened to Katie Holmes' face.
In that case, you're right. I don't want to be getting dashboard confessional from some emo kid either.
And by "Spread Files Wirelessly", they mean viruses wirelessly.

Didn't the Soyuz 11A511U have Gimballed Thrusters?
I spent most of highschool in the closet with the lights off.... shooting holograms.
You didn't happen to be shooting those Holograms with a needle, did you?
There's more Holographineers where that came from.
No, that was pretty much the Holof it.
It is little known, but Emmett was a pioneer in several other industries as well!
No, you're thinking of Emmett Brown.

It is very possible to use this code to release a worm. I can do this right now if I wanted to.""
That seems like an odd quote. Did the author of the article like Double-Dog dare him, or something?
I personally wouldn't want to carry a huge screen around...
It doesn't have to be "huge". A 400x400 screen would be more than fine. The treo 650 has a 320x320 screen.
So the 240x240 in a newer model is especially bizarre. Isn't technology supposed to advance, not regress?
It's that big room, with a blue ceiling between 6 am and 6pm most latitudes/days of the year, a black one between 6pm and 6am
We doesn't like that room. The daystar burns us.

Why should you go outside?
What is this... "outside"... that you speak of?

Nasa has up a Skywatching site with all sorts of fancy pictures.
Walmart doesn't care about black people.
