    In reply to Where Is My iPhone Videochat, Apple?
    Maybe it's because nobody wants it besides maybe 5 people on this planet? Mobile video conferencing seems cumbersome as hell to me.

    As for milking upgrades... Apple doesn't owe you anything, nor does it force you to buy a new phone each year. Seriously. What were your phone purchasing habits like before the iPhone came out?

    In reply to iPod Dock 8-Way Battlemodo
    I'm somewhat into audio (was going to go to school as an audio engineer back in the day... don't know what happened to that, but alas, I am where I am) and randomly decided to plug my ipod into all of the docks at Best Buy.

    I hadn't read this article, but found, regardless of price, the JBL was by far the best sounding.

    Why is it all these new phones with dedicated OpenGL accelerators never seem to have physical game controls?

    Man cannot game by touchscreen alone.

    In reply to LEAK: The Google Phone "Is a Certainty"
    This would be perfect for me. I recently picked up an HTC Hero from Sprint, and the first thing I did was grab the Google Voice app and set it to replace all of the normal phone functions (voice, SMS, voicemail), so it's like my Sprint number doesn't even exist. I work in a solid steel building, and data signals from Sprint's network can barely penetrate. So it's great having my phone set up to use the building's wireless, letting me make calls from areas that are complete dead zones for everyone else.

    In reply to HP Envy (15-inch) Review
    No optical drive? That part I don't care about anymore and I don't know too many people who do. I'd rather just get a USB drive bundled for the few times I'll need to reinstall Windows, maybe Office... everything else I just download off the Internet now. A few years ago this would've been ludicrous but nowadays not even desktops really need optical drives. If I could sacrifice the optical drive in a desktop to get a smaller case or more internal disk drives and only have to pull a drive out of the closet once in a while, that sounds great to me.

    In reply to HP Envy (15-inch) Review
    I still think it's the best looking computer HP's produced in a while, which is not a big feat since most HP's, especially the higher end line, is not exactly a sight for sore eyes. It would be nice if they could skip their gratuitous laser etching. I finally got to use the Envy's trackpad at J&R yesterday, and Mark and Matt are right. It's terrible. It's like....netbook terrible, and for a laptop asking for this much money, totally unacceptable.

    That battery life is even more appalling along with the fact that there's no optical, so they could've easily made room for a beefier battery.

    Even though the mid-range Macbook Pro is $2k, for $200 more you can get literally 3 or more times the battery life and an internal optical without any significant difference in weight. Seriously, nuts to i7 if its portability is that gimpy.

    I have more faith in Dell to come up with premium laptops that actually deliver over HP. As of now the Envy looks like a bucket of fail to me.

    "probably the same among you who can drink instant coffee, listen in 92kbps MP3s and think that SD broadcasts look identical to Blu-ray movies"

    Good one.

    At any rate, with regards to the "HP is the new Dell", I totally agree. HP is definitely not the same company it used to be when it comes to computers (particularly laptops).

    I like that story.

    "oh yeah, two random guys just happened to discover a long-thought-destroyed CIA manual which has in it details about the DOUBLE PLUS BLACK OPS AREA 51 SUPER TRIPLE-PROBATION SECRET MK ULTRA 2 PROGRAM."

    In reply to Gizmodo's Essential iPhone Apps: November '09 Edition
    I keep forgetting to use waze.

    I get in the car, get where I'm going and say to myself "damn I should have seen if there were any little cherries to pick up on the way here. I'll try on the ride home."

    Then I get home and say, "fuck."

    @tande04: Indeed, it's addictive. I've been on Waze just over 2 months and am already in the top 200 (after having started somewhere in the mid to high xx,xxx wazers)... mind you, it's a huge challenge for us Canadian Wazers who are building maps 100% from scratch.

    That said, Montreal is starting to come together - especially now that there are a few other equally hooked Montreal Wazers onboard :)
