iPod Mini Sells Out

I was pricing micro drives for my camera and the woman told me people are snapping up the minipod because of the 4 gig drive.
For a long time, think about full motion video (once they figure out power and storage) people thinking they are being video taped won't lie as often, you can settle arguments "what was said" crimes are recorded and those special moments, you know the ones you wish you had a picture of but didn't think about at the time. Maybe even help you remember where you left your keys =)
Can it read the properties then? or better yet zip it and re add the mp3 extension. IT also seems to me that the p2p software being written now a days is taking things like this into consideration and what this leads to is legisslation on what can and can not be written ito software, it could become illegal just to have a non branded p2p program.
y0 capn tripps, its a whole lot easier to make a weapon than defend against one, yes we can make a virus near perfect (90% to 100% mortality) In my opinion things have changed, it is now possible for one man to destroy the entire human race.
I think the real issue here is the new blood that makes decisions, to cautious, so they lag. It appears they waited to see how AMD's 64 would be accepted. I can't believe AMD would out engineer Intel unless some corporate mucky muck said to wait or hold off. Check me if I'm wrong.
A little off topic. I have a friend that works in Apples nor-cal plant repairing their machines, which he says are the biggest pieces of junk he has ever seen (he has been in the industry for years) that on top of the outrageous price for a newer Apple and their dismal software selection why on earth would anyone buy an apple? I don't get it.
They have a special wood with embedded particles which would be far cheaper. They also have cell blockers you can buy them from the UK. As far as I know it's illegal to block cell signals but they may be able to make an exception for theaters and restaurants.
Why not shield newer buildings like theaters and restaurants against this but leave the shielding open for emergency freqs like fire and ambulance? If this sounds stupid it may be because I don't know that much about it but I have wondered how you can block cells and keep it nice and legal. I once went to a movie where a person recieved a cell call about every 3 to 5 minutes, even after being asked he refused to turn it off, I complained and what I got was my money back, no movie and the guy got to stay in and watch the movie (and bother those that didn't leave)
I always liked to see if my phone number actually spells anything out, that would be worth more to me than "867 5309". You know my father seems to think we will all have permenant phone numbers that will be used for data, voice and maybe even purchases. Sort of a SSN with credit card mixed in.
even better, become a persons "purchaser" and they pay you back (there still has to be some form of monetary exchange for individuals)you buy their shoe, clothes, etc with *your* card and now the tags are you. When one of them commits murder it should be fairly hard to prove it was you and not them. So make a business out of other peoples laziness and paranoia. good idea!!!!!!! For the poor people I dont think anyone in power cares enough to track poor people do they?
I don't see why people woory about this, I no longer do. Why? simple there is tech available that can passively scan you and once they figure out how to identify you via this passive scanning they wont need to "chip" you or whatever. RFID is going to happen, I feel we here in America are powerless to stop it and even if we do how long till passive tech takes over and *they* get what they want, the ability to see where people are. If you disagree with me then I would suggest this, figure out a way to disable the RFID and quit worrying about it affecting your privacy. One other thing to consider is that a RFID tag by its self does not identify you, you would need to make a purchase using something like a credit card that tells them who you are so that the RFID number or signal can be matched with that, since cash is on the way out how about generic credit cards with no personal info.

I agree!!!!!
Thanks for saying that in a far nicer manner than I would've......................
That homeland security department is fast =)
The amount of cheeto dust is exactly the same.....
I'll be impressed when they can send out the "anti re-elect Bush" spam via the white house's mail server =)

what about price?
well if you can buy one for "kicks" you're not on a budget (or at least a larger budget than most)
But really why do you think it's better?
Good to hear personally I now think the whole "RFID scare" is a buncha whooey =)

via broadband and you could have a network of radio stations across the country.

I like that better but they do use them like weapons,
