Oh this is cool! Perfect for when I've got the laptop hooked to the TV.

I agree. I've seen many of these types of videos... whether they are unboxing videos or reviews. FIND A DAMN FRIEND TO HELP YOU!

Maybe it's the videographer in me... but I wouldn't let a video shot like this get out to millions of people...

It needs to be a USB hub too...

No. Website versions of magazines aren't the same. I vastly prefer reading a magazine than the same content on their website.

That said, I would also love reading an interactive PDF digitally on a tablet or whatever.

I would pay to subscribe to many magazines if they were in digital form, on some sort of color thin tablet device.

The best part? I would lose the ever growing stack of magazines in my bathroom!

I like the magazine format. Reading the same content on a web page just isn't the same. But imagine reading a digital article on a tablet, then being able to search for something and see more information on the web. That's something you can't do with paper.

BTW... it's gonna take you more than 7 seconds to order flowers for your wife... so you'd better wait until you're off the phone anyway. Unless you want your wife sitting in silence while you're tap tap tapping your way through a website... especially if you've dropped back to EDGE.

Wow that's pretty cool!

But, in reality, it would take a little more time to do those tasks. You'd have to take your phone off your ear, unless you have a Bluetooth or you're on speakerphone. So, your caller is sitting there waiting for you.

Then, unless you have previously searched for the restaurant, movie or map... you're gonna have to search for them, clicking or typing to find them.... all while the caller is waiting.

I like the iPhone commercials, they show you all the cool stuff you can do with the iPhone. But, it's never as fast and slick as the commercial portrays it to be...

Here... I've simplified my point:

I dunno... I just bought a couple of these... one for by my computer and one by my bed... $14 for 2 of them.

If I invested in a Powermat system... I'd have to pay $100 for the mat and another $30 for this thing... just to charge my phone:

Why not just make a wall plug with many different tips... and skip the whole "inductive charger" altogether? If you have to buy a Powemat *and* an iPod dock for it... isn't that a little redundant and expensive?

It will be YEARS before Verizon LTE has fully replaced CDMA. And it will be YEARS before they completely turn off CDMA.

Remember the switch from analog to digital? That went on for many years before they finally switched off the analog portion of the towers... giving people enough time to finish their contracts, get new phones, etc.

If Verizon got a CDMA iPhone in 2010 or 2011, that's still plenty of time until LTE takes over in ~2013.

But, if it was 2012 and we were still having this conversation... then yes, it would be too late. But we've still got some time now.

@pika2000 >> "Why bother with CDMA when everybody, including Verizon, is going LTE?"

Well, the Droid and every other new phone that Verizon has right now is CDMA... was that a silly thing to do? I mean, Verizon knows they will be using LTE in the future... so why bother with CDMA today, right?

Apple would have to make a CDMA iPhone, sure. But guess what... ALL phone manufacturers make both GSM and CDMA devices. It's not that hard to do.

Will they? That's the question. But if Samsung, RIM, LG, HTC, and Motorola ave the knowledge to make both GSM and CDMA models... I'm pretty sure Apple could figure out how.
