    If you like the addition to Bing check out Clicker (was part of the TC50). It's a pretty bad ass service to find what you're looking for when it comes to tv shows and what not. I think it's still closed beta, but they kick out the invites pretty quick when you sign up. #gizmodoremainders

    mDP is still pretty pointless. HDMI is rapidly moving to replace DVI and has a similar footprint to mDP. The way I see it is soon enough HDMI will be the USB of the visual in/out world. #gizmodoremainders

    @Odin: Have you seen a Mini DisplayPort? it is way smaller than HDMI, but i will give you that HDMI in the long run will beat mDP.

    I also think HDMI would have been a sweet addition to the MacBook Pro, too bad i have to buy an adapter to go to HDMI... )-:

    I'm not saying your wrong on HDMI being better, just the foot prints are way different. #gizmodoremainders

    Well vertically there's not a huge amount of difference, it just takes up a little more horizontal real estate. Not that much more than a standard USB though. #gizmodoremainders

    Biggest news to me here: the iPhone only has a 2.5% national marketshare? Which nation is that? By my incredibly rough calculations, 2.5% of the U.S. population would be about 7.5 million people. I was almost certain there were more iPhone users than that.

    Then again, I live in geek land, where dumbphones don't exist, if you're running anything less than Win7/Snow Leopard, you're behind the times, and location-aware services are the norm. Also, apparently CDs are dead? #gizmodoremainders

    Don't hold your breath. If the displayport standard hasn't been adapted yet, it probably won't. It seems HDMI is becoming the HD output of choice for the moment. The biggest problem with displayport.. short cable runs.

    @KLanD: Rumor has it that Dell is also adopting displayport for their Adamo laptop. HDMI is a format of choice for TV peripherals, but HDMI will be a dongle-hungry format when you consider the lower end computer monitor crowd, which will likely not adopt HDMI from top to bottom. With Displayport being an open format, as opposed to HDMI, which is a fee-based proprietary format, I'd say that Displayport is the one to go with.

    @KLanD: Just curious, but why? As far as I can tell, after living with a magsafe-equipped machine for over 3 years, I see no notable detriments, but see a great deal of pluses over standard plugs. You will never be able to yank a macbook off a table by its power cable.

    @zero411: Maybe it means something like exploding outward instead of being an isolated, Mac-only video option. Even if it is "proprietary", if it's a freely licensed option, I guess that makes it a bit hotter than it would be if otherwise.

    Such an obvious idea in hindsight, but what a great one to execute! The specs look underpowered but I hope this'll catch on so we get more beefy, yet slim, DIY-AIO rigs. :)
