Can they focus on the performance of the drives in the damn thing?

I use it to store iTunes and iPhoto media for my wife's iMac and my PC and the lag is ridiculous. Update the NIC ports to 1Gbps, get some faster HDDs in it.

Damn, you beat me to it.

If they were able to integrate the inline button and volume controls onto the outside of the helmet, it would be perfect.

where is this $169 upgrade from Tiger?

why did leopard upgrade from tiger cost $99 and this one only costs $29?

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

It's kind of an antitrust issue. iPod Touch users should certainly be allowed to use the app, so why doesn't Apple segment the App Store for certain apps by device?

Further, with the way that telecom is currently supposed to be structured, you cannot charge customers for an 'unlimited' data plan and then put limits on what apps they run on said lines unless that app is promoting copyright violations ala bittorrent. They made their bed and now they have to sleep in it. If AT&T and others try to bump up their pricing, I'm sure they'll see a drop in subscriptions. They certainly can't change the terms on current subscribers. I don't know that you can get the data plan without their voice service so what are they complaining about? To me, they're fleecing you anyway.

just what we need, a developing country increasing their carbon footprint, and on the cheap no-less.

temporal and aural thermometers are not as reliable as rectal thermometers. We have a 15 month old, and you use those only to get a basic reading (which helps if you're hoping not to wake the baby up), but pediatricians ask that when you call in, that you've done a rectal temperature reading to be accurate.

I highly doubt that the clothing changes at exactly 98.6 and if it did, is the color change exact or gradual, and what does it do if the temp goes below 98.6 (possibly indicating SIDS which is of the utmost concern for parents of children that age). What about their extremities where the temps are nearer to 98.0?

This would be utterly useless if the clothing turned white at 99.0 or 98.2 which is a totally safe range of body temp.

I would rather have an audible signal if the child's temp were at an unsafe level because if I can see the clothing, I am more likely going to check them by touch then by looking in and saying, 'oh yeah, the kids pjs aren't white, cool, pour me another vodka so I can get some sleep'.

I wonder at what pace a Swiss monkey-spanker have to maintain to prevent being revealed in such a loo?
