I think they're going to bite themselves if they get things too realistic. People play games to escape, and be 'bigger' than they really are. Let's face it, the stuff that happens in movies would never happen in real life. I want to say the average life of a marine during WWII was in the range of minutes. That'll make the next Call of Duty really fun!!
I wonder how much of this is FUD spread by Apple/AT&T's competitors and how much is legit. If most of what they're saying is legit, I can see the phone being still born, or the TOS changing quickly. (But then again, I don't have the pride that Jobs does.)
Tell them you're interested, but need to get off the call on your other line (or some excuse to put them on hold, set the phone down). Then put them on hold until they hang up themselves. It will take up their time so they at least can't make as many calls.
When they start wising up to that, keep a bull horn next to your phone and just try to deafen them.
Newspapers are basically a gateway for a greater addiction. Pretty soon it's RSS feads, and SMS alerts. The point of no return is when you start getting your news from FOX.:)
My wife has a Powerbook with built in Bluetooth and we bought her a mini RadTech mouse that she loves. It is a little small for me, but fits her hand nicely. http://www.radtech.us/Products/BT500.aspx
The only way we'll survive is by finding another life form that is easily (but not too easily) defeatable and that doesn't want to be our friend/ally. Only by having a common enemy will humans be able to come together to work towards a common goal. (And lets face it, energy, money, global warming, etc. doesn't count as an enemy.)
Am I the only one that thinks it is awesome that playboy.com mirrors the distro? They should have 'customized' it. (Special backgrounds, prepopulated bookmarks, etc.)
Maybe I'm missing something, but how can you have more than 100% profit? If it costs me 1 cent to make something and I sell it for a dollar, that's 99% profit, but nowhere near 800-1000%. Wouldn't that be like not offering a product (actually offering debt) and being paid for it?

Did G.U.R.P.S. have a Star Wars version or am I remembering wrong?
