You're absolutely right...I have learned alot about Public Relations, and this is simply a tactic. If you EVER EVER EVER want to know what a company is really doing, the last place you should seek information is from the company itself. They have everything to gain or lose, depending on how they relay their news to the public.
YES! In answer to the question at the end, I HAVE witnessed some of these shenanigans. My roommate actually received a letter from Comcast saying they had been monitoring his activity due to a complaint from a 'copyright owner' about a movie he had downloaded/seeded via BitTorrent. He downloaded the movie in January, received the letter in May, and has not done any such downloading since. Frankly I'm tired of this big-brother behavior from a shitty company like Comcast. I sure hope they don't see my comment here, they'll probably unlawfully cancel my subscription to their mediocre service.
With such a technology upgrade, why does apple still stick to those shitty white, ROUND earbuds....they don't match the phone OR fit anyones' ears. Try to keep up a little....
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
