I hate thin notebooks for the same reason why I don't really like thin women: I feel like I'm going to break them.
I'm not trying to be crude or anything, I'm just saying. I like feeling the heft of something, it makes it feel more solid...being thin enough to fit inside a manilla envelope tells me one thing: it cracks that much easier.
I....wait, what? This is a good idea actually, but why make the thing so damn ugly? ::shrug:: looks like a pajama gram and a new Wii game for my sweetheart.
Hmm...I'm not so sure about this. My mom (who uses a CrackBerry almost religiously) said that her favourite thing about it is that the keyboard is right there, no need to slide, flip, hop, skip, or jump (her exact words.) I'm not sure how well this will go over in the buisness world other than the coolness factor. After all, having this kind of set up makes it more prone to breaking, which means that traveling users will have to be that much more diligent.
"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!"
