@Artie Montreal is in Canada.. not the USA. Montreal can get very very very very cold in the winter, and these bikes I'm sure will be removed in wintertime to prevent degradation and replaced in spring.
@Bluray You think homeless guys have money and credit that they can use to rent bikes? Think.
I know Montreal is in Canada. I was remarking on similar programs being implemented in the States (like the identical one that's about to go on-line in Washington, DC). My comment regarding weather points out a flaw in the intent; why try a develop solutions that only work part of the year? What happens in the winter? Or in wetter climates? People will be less inclined to adopt the movement if it doesn't solve their personal transportation equation year-round; they'll simply invest in a car or other forms of public transportation.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

Well that's just discrimination against the poor, isn't it?
I'm sure some government welfare program will provide bike stamps for them. At least, we would have to here in the good ol' U S of A.
