Some of the gameplay is rather lame, like the many "race" missions, but in general not bad.
Once you pass all the story missions you can "Switch Heros" and wander the city as Venom, and in that mode gameplay is switched to a style similar to Grand Theft Auto where you build up points and local cops and military try to stop you. Worth the time of playing though all the lame race missions.

If I were MS, I'd concerned with keeping the people that don't bother to change their default search preferences in IE. That alone is a major advantage in the low-end user category.
Anyone that has used both google and MSN knows that googles version of everything is better.
Also, I believe that the satellite images are a hold over from the late 90's Terra Server that MS made to showcase MS-SQL's ability to handle large databases.
They beat everyone to the punch years before others were offering satellite photos.
I was speaking of a more towards the trend of having on-board wifi, I know that this specific application dosn't have the transcever.
I would like to see (if they do make mobo's with complete wifi) a good way to lock it out if necessary.
I'm all for WiFi everywhere, but it sounds like a pretty big backdoor to me, I don't think I'd want to have a WiFi connection built onto my board that I couldn't disable with anything mroe then software. Next thing you would know Microsooft is using it to send DRM related information or usage stastics without you knowing.
I realize that it would probably able to be disabled in BIOS, but it wouldn't take much that if M$ wanted to take control they could do it with a few sentences in the EULA.
Clarification: not that MiniDV isn't digital, just transftering from the Camera to the PC is a pain, just transfering it from a disk drive as a file is one step faster and easier

And obviously get the ad impression revenue directly.
When downloading torrents I am paying with my upload bandwidth usage already, which makes it much less desirable for paid content.
But I think the intelligent way to implement banners or video ads would be to include them in the individual torrent or tracker.
Thus the option would be up to the distributor to decide if they wanted ads or not.
Sounds like a good way to run KDE over a windows box as a bastard hybrid.

I know that I would love to have something small to stick to my laptops and cameras as theft protection.
I can't think of better retribution then to steal back something that got stolen from you. Or just tell the cops.
(I've had a couple 1000$ cameras stolen from me a few years ago)
"Theologians Kept Forks" is the real answer, much more amusing.
I just want to offically apoligige for making such a stupid joke, after being up for 32 hours that happens. Oi.
geez.. can't take a joke evedently
Hopefully the rider can surf the web and surf a wave if he/she is more talented enough. Brings a new meaning to "Surf the Web" or, Surf surf the web?

Improbable, but possible.

My fujifilm S602 takes exelent 640x480 30fps video to compact flash or smartMedia.
I'd like to see more VGA based video recorders, even though it obviously wouldn't work as well in the theater.
I find it much easier to edit them my MiniDV footage, the biggest pain being transfering from tape to digital.
sounds like an good way to put commericals at the begining of music cd-r's, or video at the begining of vcd's that you can't get around.
