Distinctly recall that line from that movie masterpiece "Remo Williams"
@Indefinite Implosion

Oh brother!
Watched an AT/T ad today during the pathetic Steelers clown show, with some hipster tossing postcards around a map of the USA...

...even if you had no clue about 3G etc, you'd have to ask just what on EARTH this ad was trying to say...I think AT/T is on pure defense and tossing anything they can into the air against Verizon.

Hey AT/T, save your ad cash until you have a coherent, compelling story to tell...or better yet build more towers and rely less on anti-competitive contracts with fruit phones...

and hey Apple you dilettante if you ever come over to Verizon, I'm here for ya baby! (Storm 1 goes in the trash)
My first cell phone company back in the day was AT&T with a two year contract. My 'free' area was essentially all of PA, Virginia, W. Virginia and some of New York.

I did the majority of my calls in the Pittsburgh area, and around Butler...and every month my bill would be several hundred dollars. I would call and complain, and argue with the ATT reps - they claimed I was 'roaming' in Ohio...I was not. I even got to know Tommy who could not speak English and lived in Bangalore. So they said, yea, we have a problem with cell phone calls 'skipping' to towers in Ohio. How nice.

So, I had to call and debate these imbeciles about a recurring problem that they were well aware of. Every.Single.Month. For 2 years.

I have a visceral hatred of the company, and wish I knew enough about the stock market to short them at time - maybe not a bad idea, right now.

And now they complain about Verizon's ads...know why? Because they are balls on hilarious and accurate.

They say they are worried that some people who watch the ads may think the 3G map, clearly marked, really means actual mundane coverage...

I'd say they have a point since such people who may be confused by the maps are morons, and morons are the only subscriber group that might be an ATT growth category.

Hey ATT, I state clearly and with serene conscious that you suck, are an also-ran in Mobile Electronics, and that yo' momma wears Army boots...gonna sue me?
OK this is what I have:

PS3
WiFi
Netflix
NetFlix Disc
Question:

Can you use this with WiFi? I'm guessing not likely and ordered a CAT6 cable from Monoprice today, but is it possible while I wait?

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
