mikeklein commented on WSJ: Android Is A Giant, Delayed Flustercuck, iPhone Easier to Develop For

"@mattjumbo: Apps are written in flavor of Java...it's not that big a deal folks. Here's how the carriers can make money on their services...offer something more compelling than what I can already download for free. Hey...they're already making money off my sub...why double-dip for gps/nav & streaming video...stuff I can already do for free...although it's a "violation" of their TOS. Carriers should stick to building out their networks as this is their PRIMARY reason for existence."

mikeklein commented on Video: Teen Brutally Beats Bus Passenger for iPhone

"Eyes, throat, balls, knees...every target is valid in an assault like this...and most folks won't resort to a hardcore "poking" which will drop somebody asap. Screw the punches man.

The hardest thing in situations like this is keeping your cool so you can deliver appropriate response (throat, eyes, etc.). If EVERY bystander in situations like this ganged up on unarmed attackers...there's no fear in #s man."

"My Kodak V1233 does 720p but isn't water-resistant...cost $200 at CostCo. I like this unit a lot. Only problems I've seen with mp4 and hi-def is when you quickly pan the camera the sensor can't keep up and you get some 'jaggies'/image shift."
