Surely if someone says "I sent (item)" the only way they can prove it is if they sent it using a signed for service or have a receipt for sending.
Also, if someone sells you a fake, then you have the fake to hand to prove it is a fake. Pretty easy really.
The only reason eBay won't bother is because it is too much effort for them and it would lose them money. They will also lose money from listings and final valuation fees if they get rid of scammers. eBay has across their site, "protection this", "protection that", $$$$, ££££ protection if anything goes wrong, but when something does go wrong they don't care and you can't get in touch with them.
Most PDA manufacturers will not even bother releasing an upgrade for pre-existing devices, which means if you want the newest fangled Windows CE, you have to buy a new device. Glad I read this as I will put off buying a new PDA until CE 6 is supplied in the box on the device.
What about being able to download lossless if you want for the same price? MP3 128kb/s and 192kb/s is just junk with a decent sound system. FLAC all the way!
I am guessing you overclocked it to the max in order to blow it up. It is utterly disgusting if you abused the product and was then given a replacement free of charge. If you overclock you choose to do that at your own risk, and shouldn't be offered so much as a repair, nevermind a replacement, even in the 12 month period.
"3) Cells from before the 8-cell stage of embryo developments are as powerful as cells in 2), but are harder to control. While these may also be harvested with little side effects (can take one for research, leave 7, and these 7 will still grow into a normal baby)"
As an adult I would be very unhappy to find out one of my cells had been removed as an embryo, even though I may well be a fully healthy adult. I would consider it a violation of my human rights to abuse my existence without my fully informed consent, even if science says I can do without one cell. I'm sure even you as a cell biologist would feel at least somewhat similar.
You could also guarantee that people who would have had disabilities anyway would be suing people responsible for taking cells from their embryo claiming this in some way caused their disability/problem. They may well win to as surely it would be difficult to disprove their condition was related to the removal of a cell.
Maybe science should try look at replacing the internal combustion engine and helping the environment!
Oh yes, oh yes people. Wait for faster cheaper broadband. The HD DVD format to be cracked just like CSS and Sony's ARCOSS within a month or 2 of release. Wait for cheap HD DVD format writers and everyone will be happy:) Lots of waiting, but we're already waiting for HD:D
But the chinese government isn't only censoring child pron. They are censoring fundamental facts about china to spoon feed the chinese people, which is entirely wrong.
While sometimes the comments posted are of good humour, I cannot understand why anyone had not yet drawn attention to the fact that the device *needs* to find a camera lens, hence it is only a matter of time for someone to develop a camera completely immune to such attacks. Plus I am sure some camera's do not need to see infrared waves. If the wavelength monitored is kept to what the human eye can see then there would be no effect surely?!

Now if this is a cure and people can no longer be depressed, this means employers can take the p**s three times as much as usual.

There's no other reason they would brown nose the chinese government. They just want the $$$$. How greedy of them.
I was hoping for maybe 4gb or more solid state CF's.
I can copy games with a DVD writer and run linux....
:) ;)
I don't particularly care about the file system
