These stereo headphones connect to any Bluetooth phone and stream music wirelessly from the phone's memory or from any MP3 player. In fact, many new phones can send stereo music to Bluetooth headphones, a feat impossible until earlier this year. This technology, called A2DP, is available in the Pearl.
The NYT writer didn't actually try the stuff he's 'advertising'. You can't listen to your tunes over bluetooth on the Pearl. I have one, and I tried. It supports A2DP but not the correct profile or something, or the media player doesnt support it. 'Twas Very Disappointing for me.
What's more, SymNRT, their universal uninstaller for their products, somehow unregisters (or removes, or disables, i dont know) a critical dll which was required for the BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service) on Windows XP, which prevents BITS from starting up and and hence prevents Windows Update from working!! Leaving your computer open to the latest Windows vunerability! I had to google around for quite some time before finding out i had to reregister some dll that enabled BITS to work right.
Beware the Norton's removal kit!!
not really. google hands over 4500 only if the 'intern' completes the project, so the final cost should be substantially less.

well the story, and the discussion it generates is indeed stuff that matters to us. If/. decides to embed a few referrer links, more power to them. keeps this community going anyway.
now, if the post wasn't on 'stuff that matters', that would be a different story....
actually, I think the problem is, why have a whole new platform for widgets?? why cant apple just add a "favorite apps" hot corner, so i can access my calculator and other plain ol' osx apps easily?? granted, the widgets are lightweigt and have spawned a great deal of applets like never before, but what i see is an extraordinary duplication of apps on the widget platform... tsk tsk.
These people are regulators, not politicians. They are the ones who actually write the details of the law (e.g. US Code) and are somewhat more insulated from lobbyists than congress is. So it would definitely be worth your while to comment.
