I have the honda Civic hybrid, and have been told its a eight year warrantee.
My current mileage is 43.9 for the lifetime of the car. Thats over 18000 miles (minus the 1000 miles that my wife accidently cleared out of the trip odometer).
Wide spread caos is sure to ensue. At least when emergency vehicles do this, they are automatically responsible for all wrecks it causes. The civilian user will have no such responsibility, and will be very hard to catch. But satan help you if you are caught with one.
My ibook tickles me all the time when plugged in. The shock comes from the battery area. I have called apple about it, and they deny it is happening.
Oh well.

Well this is the second or third attempt at this, and according to a wired article from a couple of months ago, they broke some of the major rules in watch design in making this. One, and they admitted it is a big one, was exceeding the (percieved by the public) height limitation of a watch case.
I give it a couple of months at the most. Just like the last few designs. Palm sales are on the decline anyway, and I can't see a watch getting a better reception than some of really cool designs that are out now.
For more photos, see http://www.ipoding.com/ and look under the new ipod section. They have also taken apart the dock, and figured out where the line in and out are, as well as the USB 2.0, and Firewire leads in then plug.
Also thier photos are labled and show case details that are not covered in this review.
Technically you are right, but if you read their page, they have yet to place Saturn (they also have not given a date for it to be placed). So the US team, may be able to hold he title for a while, if only for a brief period.
I had a hard enough time finding one floppy to make into an Enterprise, and now I have to find another one to make an antanae. Where will the madness end?
Or, don't void your warrantee, and use the ethernet connection, DvArchive, and get all the content off of the box. Then when you want it later, stream it back to the Replay.
As the other posts have mentioned, D & M have purchased ReplayTV.
What has not been mentioned to this point, is that Replay allows streaming, without hacks, you can archive the mpeg2 that comes out of it. You can serve those mpegs off of your computer, linux, os X, Windows to any 4000 series and up machine int he house, and you can stream to your computer if you wish. You can burn those same files to DVD and make playable DVD's out of them.
D&M has also done great things, such as getting out the OS update, rapidly, invloving users on a wide scale in Beta testing, and maintaining a presence on one of the major chat boards revolving around replaytv use. they also (from what I can tell) involved the producers of DVarchive in the beta process, so that there was a patch for DVarchive to interoperate with the new 5.0 firmware before it was in general release.
I am more confident in replayTV's longevity than I am TiVO's, even with the new retail aliance with Apple (stocking TiVO in their retail stores), and I am a mac user.
While he was researching his device, he should have looked a little harder at Einthovens work, and he would have seen where to actually place his electrodes (to get the tracing we all know, lead I). The way he has them in the photo explains the reason for his "negative deflection" They are in a place that looks at the Left anterior portion of the heart. Roughly V4 in medical parlance. This is an area where you want R wave progression, which is some of what he was seeing. I am sure some of it is his device, but most of the negativity is from that source I bet. In otherwords, normal.
Nice job, but I wouldn't let it touch me.
Interesting, but impractical for me

I just can't see myself taking the time to program my notes. Especially since I cannot do it on the device that it is intended to be used on.
This will be espceially hard for the masses, I think this apeals to a low number of people.
Its nice that it comes with the system, as I cannot see any of Apples offerings fiting in the thing. Hang a 23" display off of one of those arms, and I bet you can't get into the seat. Not to mention my iMac.
I think I will pass. I did however enter the drawing, that thing should at least generate a dollar or two on ebay.
I know that my sharing capabillities are hampered by my bandwidth. Even without advertising my stream, I have as many as four users at a time.
I cannot imagine why you would want to advertise your collection, if you plan to use this yourself.
I use it primarily to save the battery on my ipod, when I am at school, with wireless everywhere. Its great, I no longer need to store mp3's on my laptop, and am not limited to what I can carry.
When it is just me streaming, I get no interuptions, but the stream is unlistenable over my cable connection with four people on it.
That huge heat sink leads me to a good idea of why the 12" pBook is so hot.
And the AMD chips have been in the previous base stations as well. (or so I was told, when I posted this comment on macslash) But it does kind of clear up a great deal of speculation on what Apple and AMD were up to.
There is another aspect to blogging that I haven't seen mentioned in this discussion. Blogs can be a good way to see what it is like to pursue something you are considering. That is why I keep my blog. When I figured out what I want ed to study for graduate school, I went out and tried to find some first person accounts of what it is like to become a Nurse Anesthetist. I bet most of you have not even heard of one. Anyway, it was difficult at best, to hook up with one, let alone find out how school was for them. So When I started school, I started a blog to let people know what anesthesia school was like.
Anyway, I guess I am trying to say that not all blogs are just random thoughts about how someones school lunch smelled like a nursing home.
I have not been following fink that closely, but I remember a conflict exixting between Fink and Mcafee virus protection. (the service that comes with.mac) I have forgone updating my virus coverage as a result. Because I want to try fink out.
Viruses are the least of this computers worries (the viruses would have a difficult time reproducing due to most of the cellular mechanisms being missing). Prions would be a bigger threat. (the eating squirel brains disease causers).
BTW would the folding at home project be banned from these systems? I could see it now, the computer reverse engineers itself by doing some folding at home. (enzymes are mostly proteins).

Because, the number one intervention in the presence of heart attack, is early defibrilation. Without it, the incidence of survival is low.
Note, I do not have a land line either, and I am a medical professional.

You also should consider some of the other benifits.
In Virginia you can drive in the HOV lanes as a lone driver. Huge benifit in the DC metro area.
Other states have similar perks.
Turn Java off, and you should be able to surf the site, and at least see whats there.

I am just not very excited about the loss of my privacy to a camera in every pocket society.

Don't forget the case that changes colors based on the temp of the processor. RE: color shifting case design article from long ago.
My personal best Java app for OSX is DVArchive. It requires Java 1.4.1, for which I installed the beta 10 version yesterday. Arrghh!
Anyway, I am hoping that this will make DVArchive run even better.
