I would agree to some extent that the music selection was bad. However, how 'good' do you expect it to be? Really, I'd rather stick to the real thing (turn tables and laptop for beat matching) rather than a game.
The aviation community (myself included) might have some concerns with a drone flying around in Class B airspace. Is it taking off/landing at MIA? Interacting with ATC or MIA tower?
Hmm, 10,500ft seems a bit high to monitor traffic/crime from;)
I'm in the dear god no camp... Why can't Hollywood find something original to do. I'm still waiting for the sequel to Moby Dick;)
Two parts? Really? Oh right, forgot Hollywood credo #2: Profit.
I think the mentality of most home users are that they want Apple to tell them what apps can run on their device(s). Let's hope the power users talk some sense into Apple. I for one don't like the idea of only being able to consume apps that are published via the App Store...
Mainframes are typically for number crunching apps. I had to run some comparisons and for the RHEL5/WebSphere Process Server (ESB) combination we ran - it was keeping up quite well with transactions. I had to pull them back when the business was suggesting to run their web server there. The cost was not justified.
Maybe they could work on improving gas mileage? oh, right "think of the children" is far more important;)
If my kid is doing 75, they will be grounded for some time. I agree with another comment here asking why you would speed up to avoid an accident. Typically in cases I've seen - it is slamming of the brakes that is instinctual.

This unveiling also brought some bad news for Android enthusiasts.
* Neither Google nor HTC nor T-Mobile will ship any sort of desktop-synchronization software with the phone, so your only way to get your address book and calendars onto the G1 will be to upload them to Gmail and Google Calendar. I can't believe that these companies are leaving a function this basic as a "third party opportunity."
* The G1, like the iPhone and T-Mobile's Sidekick, will have its SIM card slot locked to prevent the use of other carriers' subscriber-identity module cards. So if you don't like T-Mobile's network here or its roaming rates overseas, you'll either have to suck it up or hope somebody "jailbreaks" this phone in the same way that hackers have defeated the iPhone's SIM locking.
* The G1 will offer limited compatibility with some of the files you use most often. It will only be able to read Microsoft Office files, not edit them. And while its music player will be able to use MP3, Windows Media and AAC files, you'll need to wait for a third-party to provide some sort of add-on to sync your iTunes library to the phone. And iTunes Store downloads restricted with Apple's "digital rights management" locks won't play on the G1 (though the G1 is no different from other non-Apple devices in this respect; that's why you shouldn't buy Apple's DRM-ed downloads at all when you get the same music as an unlocked, open MP3 from Amazon's MP3 store).
* Its Bluetooth is as limited as the iPhone's. The G1 will initially support only hands-free kits, with "A2DP" stereo-sound output coming later on and, it seems, no plans for file transfer or other, more useful Bluetooth options.

All I could think about was season 3 episode 6 of Doctor Who. Egads.No thanks.
Might not be able to mention spaghetti either. His Noodliness and followers may be offended ;)
Time to unearth my speak and spell.
I can see Russia from my boat!
Already sold out!! I have been looking for a SX-70. Hmm, $350 though? Wowsers.

Wow, what a waste of paper!! Seriously, printing out the emails? How about just putting them on line? impractical for whom?
profit!
Looks like they are only going to be available in Europe initially.

Captain Ramius: Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at. Most things in here don't react too well to bullets.
The FCC's rush to takeover the Internet is just the latest example of the need for fundamental reform to protect consumers.
The FCC is trying to protect consumers, you fuck. Honestly, do these people believe that anyone will swallow lies like that?
Simply put: Yes.
Hah. Hilarious. Some people will believe anything I guess.... Tinfoil hats: engaged!
That would be solar flares, son.

How soon before it is up on iTunes? ;)
I'd like to see this on more than just PC/Mac/Wii... (PS3 maybe?)
Almost read this as 'random breast test'... oops
the brown note... that should be some interesting math.

So with a bit of digging, the wireless mouse was blamed on a boeing 747 flight. The plane turned with three degrees of bank. I couldn't find the actual report of the incident on Australia's Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government site.

how about IE? oh yeah, forgot that it was integrated into the OS...
