Personally, I'm a little bummed that it would only take 3.4 minutes to download a terabyte. That's like...just under 5 hours for the entire internet, much too long. Oh well, maybe it'll get faster in the future.
Thought this comparison may be a little off, its like owning a house. You want to keep the house? Pay the money each year. Want to stay in touch with the latest gadgets? Pay the money each year.
Also, on the topic of scratched iPods...I have an iPod that fell off the BACK OF A MOVING TRUCK and it has less scratches than that...though it does have a cracked screen...but that's expected.
It seems that a majority of blogs are jumping to the conclusion that this is the final product, or close to it. Just like with any game or system, there is going to be an option in the final product that allows you to control the sensitivity. Take the basic computer FPS as an example. Originally no one had the skills to take on a fully sensitive FPS game. As time went on, they either got their skills honed, or producers realized they needed to allow for increased or decreased sensitivity in their games. Reviews of new systems (especially at e3) should be for their potential, not for how they feel right then, since we should assume that the full potential of the systems and their accessories will be fully utilized once finally released.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am trying to configure out a really dumbed down and intuitive PC for my grandmother. She recently had a stroke and while she is under my care I would like to repurpose a laptop for her to surf and email her children. Anyone have any experience with what input devices and UI's are really understandable for the over 80 crowd?"
