not really. on my pc with a 19" tft display the difference between a sd and a hd (even only 720p) movie is very noticeable. a well recorded hd movie is always a jawdropping experience.
russia and georgia went into war with mostly the same old soviet armament (georgia even had some western made weaponry and some western upgrades for their jet bombers). also georgia had combat drones, while russia had to use old strategic bombers as reconnaissance aircraft.
still, after only two days georgians fled and left most of their weaponry (both soviet and western) behind.
you have to make the operation on a completely different device. if you don't have access to your pc, you are s.o.l. you cannot access your files without your pc and itunes, you cannot install applications without your pc and itunes. it is a much more complicated approach.
that is why i prefer phones with windows mobile. there are no restrictions for applications, the developer have a wide choice of developer tools (vb, visual c++, any.net language with netcf support, third party tools like lazarus).
there is skype for windows mobile (afaik it was the first mobile port of skype), there are other voip apps, starting wm6 there is even a built in voip support.
and i don't get why people whine about the interface. it is pretty much the same well known windows interface. even my mum and dad and my girlfriend can use their windows mobile smartphones (xda, xda II and xda III). if you can cope with windows on your desktop, you'll have no difficulties with wm. i do own an ipod touch (it was a gift) and i don't like the interface at all. if i want to delete an mp3 file, with my htc universal i start up my favourite file manager (total commander in my case), go to the file, open the context menu, chose "delete" and i am done. with the ipod touch i have to delete the file in the itunes on my pc, then synchronise. it sucks.

can you explain me the end of the book? i read it years ago, as i did with all stories about pirx, but i never understood this one book correctly, i think.
firefox isn't slow because of the engine but rather because of the xul interface. try kmeleon sometime, it is the gecko engine with native win32 interface. it is much faster than firefox.
this calculation can be vastly different in europe.
first of all, the gas prices here are nearly twice as high. second, the taxes on cars in germany are paid for the and the size of displacement, the tax also depends on whether the car exhausts lots of co2 or not.
so, with 2000-3000 euros premium a hybrid pays off after three years already.
saakashvili himself ordered the attack "to restore georgian authority". it is official. anyway, saying that russia is more corrupt than georgia is plain wrong. i had a fiancee in georgia a couple of years ago, so i know a bit about the country. it sucks way more than russia.
interesting enough the same is also true the other way around. finns talking english usually sounds painful, finns talking german is much more pleasant.
also, finnish pronounciation is not that difficult with a bit of russian and estonian background;-)
btw there is a russian joke which is imho fitting:
a russian guy living in estonia goes shopping and tries to speak to the clerk in a very bad estonian. the clerk says: speak russian, i can understand it the guy answers: no way, we had to endure butchered russian for 50 years, so now we return the favour.
russia is not the energy problem of the european union. for nearly 50 years ussr and russia after that were absolutely reliable energy sources and still are because russia keeps business and politics separate.
as someone who has done a couple of martial arts for a while, let me say you: a proprotionate fight can exist only in sports. if you are under a real threat for your life you'll do everything necessary to survive and to make sure that your opponent cannot continue his attacks.
there was no second russian front in abchasia by the russian army, only by abchasian separatists who were in fear that they'll going to be attacked next right after ossetians.
the occupation of gori and the bombings of international airport tbilisi (an ugly and dirty town btw, but i had a fiancee there once) are lies perpetuated by the georgian government. the journalists of the afp news agency already disproved these lies.
anyway, pretty much of what you said can be said about current georgia. saakashvili has one of his former comrades (who was more moderate and wanted a peaceful solution with south ossetia and abchasia) killed, the georgian media is also unter strict government control, political dissidents were beaten up by riot police at the demonstration last year and now a major military offensive into south ossetia.
and now saakashvili says about georgia being the last bastion of the western civilisation before the evil russian barbarians (and this is almost a citation of his speech yesterday).
please look up the geographical position of georgia. it directly borders to chechnya where russia waged two wars in the last 15 years and where still lots of troops are in a ready state.
also, a couple of ships of every military fleet are ready to sail.
Wouldn't be the first time - USA vs Serbia, Israel vs Lebanon.
By the way, my ex-fiancee used to work at a McDonalds in Tbilisi. I am pretty sure that she is pissed now being in a warzone instead of safe and boring Germany. She can only blame herself, though.
nope. the airlines charges as much as the customer can bear. business expences are tax-deductable anyway. also business customers get more service for the price, for example they can change the flight for almost free.

windows mobile 5 is a disaster. neither the previous version were that bad, nor are the subsequent versions.

the idea is not actually new, the foveon x3 sensor works probably the same way.

sounds like an accident to me. if they wanted to kill him, he would be instantly dead.
shelling a sleeping city is a response in kind?
interesting enough the same is also true the other way around.

now please explain to me how georgia could kill only 6 people by shelling a sleeping capital city at midnight?
also of note is the fact, that georgia borders chechnya where lots of russian troops are waiting for any action.
please look up the geographical position of georgia.
it directly borders to chechnya where russia waged two wars in the last 15 years and where still lots of troops are in a ready state.

because the pictures are also staged.

nope. georgia is a part of asia, not of europe, so there wouldn't be a response.
anyway, a NATO response can mean just condolence.
nope.

most single direction flights are business flights so the airlines know they can charge more.
hacking comes from german "hacken" which means to chop, so a hacker is actually a lumberjack (and is okay).
