Talking about flash, Mikko mentions that the N900 ships with Flash 9.4. What he forgot to add, is that it WILL be upgradeable to 10.1 when ready (early 2010).

Just an idea... tomorrow is Motorola's android handset unveiling, is it not? Coincidence?

like gravity?

The answer is a resounding YES.

The most basic and important reasons are that both Android and iPhone are ARM based. What works on one, should work on the other (theoretically, there are different arm archs, but the most recent ones should be in use on both). Of course one would have to bypass the hardware's code signing mechanism.... (think jailbreak)

Mac running on windows? As in through a virtual machine? It can be done. Or you could just install OS X to your PC (hardware). Not that hard really.


Trust me guys, if it's possible, there's already a hacker team working on it ;-)

If I understand things correctly, the car will go for about $80K. Not too bad I guess.... still way higher than anything I can afford. But it's nice to know that it's not like 300K or something. Green needs to get cheaper!

The design looks nice.

What part of "made in Canada" did you not understand? Of course it can play hockey! (at $200m+ it better, anyways)

@Big John

Ok, I'll admit my reply was a bit condescending, sorry. It's late, and I jumped (http://www.xkcd.com/386/ :p )

My point was that thought the Eee might have "low" specs, it is far from being under-performing as you were hinting.

You have to admit though that your post "highlighting" the Eee shortcomings in relation to the Air. Again, sorry for namecalling you a "fanboy", that was harsh on my part :p

@Big John

Just because the "speed" of the processor is slower than the Air, doesn't mean that it's nerfed. The Eee Can run Half-Life 2 at a decent FPS, all for $350.

And yes, the Eee has been "hackintoshed".

Do some research next time. It's a dead give away of fanboyism when you don't.

From what I've read, Via's Isaiah can run Crysis.

I think that sums it all up in terms of performance questions :)
