Wow!

For some reason the solid white / (mostly)single solid other color makes me think of Mirror's Edge.

I was already planning to leave this company in a years time when my contract is up. This just increases the motivation to do so.

The map for verizon is horribly inaccurate. They claim to have 3G service covering nearly all of kansas, which infact, they have no such thing. Since the merger, the quality of service in rural areas of western kansas has dropped. Verizon is allowing the old alltel equipment to rot. I'm going to sprint when my contract is up.

No, see you don't understand. Cameras aren't supposed to take photos anymore. They're supposed to shoot HD video.

Any idea whether this is intel-compatible only?

Well, perhaps. Considering that if someone has a D300 and a large selection of DX format lenses, and no (FX?) lenses, then an upgrade from a D300 to a D700 or D3/x would be alot more costly, as the DX lenses are more or less useless on a full frame sensor. I suppose you could still sell everything, but full-frame compatible lenses are pricey above and beyond any of the DX lenses.

This would look totally swank in my not so very swank apartment!

Andrew is correct. The keys are mushy. Not only that, but they tend to be spaced out quite a bit more, and require a more direct, on center hit to trigger the switches. I have one around here someplace i got at radioshack years ago. I loved it for a while, eventually got tired of it. While soft, your fingers and hands will eventually take a pounding. Literally. Especially if you can learn to type quickly on them, as I did, you'll be hitting the keys pretty hard. Just the name of the game, unfortunately. Perhaps others have experience with certain models that aren't so "mushy-stiff" as mine was?

So that's what Apple did with all the worn out Mighty Mouse tooling.. hmm..
