    In reply to Stair Dismount iPhone Game Hands On (Verdict: Sadistic Fun)
    I'm going to have to check it out. Is it the same devs as the original?

    ... also I'm sure you probably just forgot, but a mention of the price and a link the iTunes store would be nice. I wouldn't usually complain, but since that info is usually in these reviews I just wanted to point out the small oversight. Which for the record, it's $2.99 [itunes.apple.com]

    Ah, I remember the old computer version of this game, it's still fun to see what happens if you push someone down a set of stairs... too bad I don't have an iPhone

    Bring on the Truck Dismount. Hours of wasted time in college was spent on these two programs.

    Noooo. Don´t throw Jesus Diaz down the stairs. I like this guy.
    I´m not sure he likes the treatment in picture 2 as well.

    @BobotheTeddy: If you told him there was an apple store at the bottom of the stairs he'd probably do it in real life too :p

    Very very cool idea, now we're talking......I'm tempted to buy this product. I really haven't given the kindle/nook a second thought.

    They just need to work out where we can buy books from. How come Wally World hasnt come out with downloadable e-books??

    I'd prefer not to shop at wally world but wtf else is going to do it?? Seriously a no brainer here people.. #alexreader

    I think this feature creep of the ebook reader is appealing on some level, but ultimately pointless. There's too much crossover with smartphones and PMPs. ebook readers should focus on being good ebook readers, not trying to play music and video and widgets and whatnot. #alexreader

    @weatherman: In essence, I must agree. I simply use my smartphone to read all the books I want and with the TP2's larger screen it is even better than my previous ebook reader. #alexreader

    @weatherman: Totally. This form factor should offer much more functionality than just a book reader / MP3 player. Devices like the Archos PC Tablet running Windows 7, or an Apple Tablet should squash this market except for the PC phobic users that are heavy book readers. #alexreader

    @brianmi40: I concur. I like what the Nook was trying to do, but I think it failed with no web browser. I want to be able to switch from an ebook, to a website, to an RSS feed, and maybe listen to an MP3, but I dont want a whole netbook/laptop. Im interested in that Archos tablet, or the Creative tablet to see what they bring to the table.

    @weatherman: I think there is some merit in a simple MP3 player, but nothing more.

    Load your ebook reader with some classical music, add headphones, read away! #alexreader

    @josh.morgart: I think we'll get there in the not too distant future. I don't think we're too far off of having a lightweight tablet that's good for reading as well as all sorts of other stuff. There are just a couple tech hurdles (screen readability, power consumption) that quite a few companies are working on. Some have pretty compelling solutions.

    "I can't say there was no lag—there definitely was—but it wasn't enough to ruin a game like this, of course, ANY control lag is enough to ruin a first person shooter."

    My only question: Can you turn the console off and on via your computer? Us 360 users have a little overheating problem and I'd hate to have to leave it on for a week if I was on vacation and wanted to play... #spawnhd720handson

    how do you control it? Did you hook up your 360 controller to your computer? Or keyboard and mouse? Or just directly to your console since you were local?

    How are you supposed to control it when you are remote? #spawnhd720handson

    Off-topic, but the first thing I thought of after reading this (nicely done review Debbie, BTW) was that Dyson will make one that has 15 invisible tounges...like his $350 bladeless fan.
