Is this any different than the ill-fated WebTV products we have over here? Even though those are dirt cheap, few people have any desire to own them...even the grandparents they are targeted at.
Alright punks - the reason I posted the link is so someone MIGHT read the damned thing. I meant it as a joke, but people want to make it personal now. Let me give a quote I am accused of not having:
"The one thing that sustained him? 'The thought that some day I would come home and invent the Internet.'"
Goes on...
" 'I was pretty tired when I made that comment because I had been up very late the night before inventing the camcorder,' Gore told the Democratic National Committee on Saturday."
He admitted to it in front of the fucking DNC so do I still not have a source?
Why is this so expensive when memory sticks are so much cheaper than this? And also, why support legacy form factors (I know, I know for compatibility) rather than innovate by taking advantage of small sizes flash memory can offer?
Just look at when Stephen King tried to do a similar system with "The Plant." Sales were so abysmal that he didnt even finish it after writing a few parts.
I cant read the article so i cant tell this, but is digital radio really the same as satellite? i didnt think so but im not an expert by any stretch. oh, and by the way, brits have a LOT of shit sitcoms too.:)
Why can't you just do this with the Winamp plugin that records streams to mp3 files (forgot name, sorry) and then transfer to media card via film reader?
because I look at it and go "damn, that would be quite the engineering accomplishment right there," because college isn't all about inventing things that need to be invented, it's about expanding the mind to accomplish abstract ideas
Your post was excellently written and proves that mine incited the exact debate that I wanted. I just wanted to see how many people out there are still interested in doing something to do it, not for fame, etc. Personally, I feel that this would garner more merit were it done of someone's own volition instead of for prize money. However, I hate to say it, but I remain a naysayer - I do not think this will happen, and should it happen, would never become universally accepted. Pedal-cars exist now. How many people do you see pedalling down the street?

Newegg.com has a fantastic deal on these. Better than any price I found on pricewatch.com. Here it is:

Underwhelming response not necessarily due lack of interest, but rather lack of people willing to pay the hefty price.

Me = democrat = likes Gore + capable of making a joke next time I will put the smiley face so it is obvious...
Al Gore invented the "Internet" so shouldn't we ask his permission before we change any names?

Steps towards more realistic pr0n are always welcome. :)
Simple. Don't buy into their DRM scheme. Release movies on the net with a proprietary or with another vendor's IP for DRM.
The user here was probably the type of person that would love to see pics from MyParty! (.zip file attached)
visit a frew pr0n sites with IE
:)
I have a multitude of suggestions for sites should you decide to tackle this project.
Worse yet if this thing is built on flash memory how much is it going to cost in canada ?
A lot.

Until ventures such as these are privately funded? A private company with a LOT of monetary resources could stand to make a LOT more if you ask me.

I just invented a reverse TiVo. It extracts all the commercials from a given time slot for viewing at a later date! One at a time folks!

side effects? Seems to be the primary thing keeping people away from steroids, right? (except for those who buy into that whole "morality" thingie...)
Excellent point. Had not thought of that. Makes you wonder how long it will take until such parts reach production widespread.
same with Absolutely Fabulous...
(shudder)
Thats not the exact one that I installed, but it is obviously the same idea. Maybe I'll go and check out your suggested one. Thanks for the response.

Unfortunately, we in the US do not share your energy preservation ideas. We would much rather drive up the price of oil at an alarming rate. :)
