Oh please. Of course something is more expensive if you can't do it yourself.
Computers, driving, your statement could be applied to any kind of service.
Plus what kind of Rio do you have? Does it have a harddrive, or is it flash based? What kind of screen does it have?
Are you a moron?
1. It does not cost 60$ to replace your iPod battery, its costs as low as 30$ + My Battery has lasted over the last 19 months!
2. It supports MP3! Do you need a more ubiquitous format?
HA HA! The iPod has killed an "iPod Killer"
SUCK ON THAT!
In all seriousness though, this sucks as i was looking forward to the Karma 2 and the Chroma. Now they will never be shown. R.I.P. Rio.
This is not nerdcore hip-hop.
Nerdcore hip-hop is the Definitive Jux Label (El-P, Aesop Rock) and Anticon label (Dose One, 13&God, cLOUDDEAD).
This is just gangsta rap with stereotypical "nerd" subject matter.
Well it does have a seperate "konspose" layer that is hidden (i think F8 is the key)
Anyways, this minimizes clutter, i ran my calculator, note pad, calender, etc. in that layer, on my desktop i only had wi-fi meter, and digital clock (easier to read).
Its definetely a cool thing to have, but you are right the UI still feels... Handicapped, as of a lack of a better word.
This gives me hope though as the Linux community is unleashing the iPod's potential and opening doors for us commercial programmers.
I'm 100% sure microsoft did this as more for Mac users who actually care about how peripherals use, as opposed to PC users, who don't mind as much as to how a product looks, although that stereotype is changing....
Apple is just trying to show that it can do everything a PC can do, including the tablet form factor.
Here's a suggestion for apple.
Work on making em cheaper!
Never give them your number, etc when making cash only purchases.
One Best buy employee at Golf Rd. in Schaumburg told me i needed to give them the telephone number to purchase so i got out of line walked up to another cashier, and had him check me out.
Look on the first cashiers face was priceless as i waved bye out the front door.
no offence, but i dont see how he deserved his Palm when most of the time his humor and logic is flawed.
For example: When the congressmen are asked to sign up their sons or daughters:
1. Even if they wanted to, they couldn't. Thats the beauty of america. If you want to go, then go to the army, if not then don't. I wouldn't blame the parents.
2. If i was on my cell phone and i saw michael moore approaching me, i would run as well. Better than having your words edited to the point where it seems like you said something you had no intention of saying.
3. No one wants their sons or daughters to go to war. If i was in their[the congressmen's] position i would use all my available power to keep my son/daughter here in the states.
I do understand the point he was trying to make, but when you step back and look at logic, his actions seem equivelent to that of a jackass./rant

iPod Agent (windows)
I was part of the William Fremd team 2001-2003. We kicked so much booty its not funny.
Ahhh my faith in humanity is restored again!
*looks out window*
Never mind.
Using FF .9.3 and will not register, did it with IE, sorry all.

i think you mean, "hypocritical" not "hippocratic" Sorry, just had to inject.
Thats very true, and Apple was super pissed that toshiba leaked that... Also they would be the size convient enough for an ipod... why not PDA?

it has its uses! (ringtones...?)
I agree. Plus WMA is the worst music format out there...
I would imagine people like it because they can customize it to however they like.
Thats why i switched... Plus Tabbed browsing.
I agree with the buy a Mac sentiment, now if only Marklar would come out...
