I don't get it? You see her (or her assistant) take the cup out of the x-ray bin at 1:05. Then it just shows her after x-ray still in security drinking either the last big of the drink or ice chips.

Just a few friendly addions (I live and work in Boston and use logan often):

Downtown is about 5 minutes away from the Arrival Pickup at the Airport driving via the Sumner Tunnel (I live in Mission Hill, which is near Fenway and it takes about 20 minutes from my house to get to the airport).

Hilton can also be accessed via the bridges that connect all of the terminals together (From Terminal A its a 5 minute walk).

The Silver Line (a Heavy Bus Route run by the T that connects to the Red Line at South Station) also stops at the Airport. South Station is an excellent destination close to the airpot (20 minute ride on the Silver Line) where you can people watch and is a really short walk to Downtown Crossing (an outdoor mall part of Boston).

I hope these comments help. Thanks,

I find it very funny how Australians seem to find every chance to call the United States wrong or stupid. Go eat some Koala testicles on a bun and enjoy your island.

I'll continue to make judgements about other countries by visiting them instead of relying on a few shocking pictures on a blog. I might be arrogant, but at least I don't think every Australian is what I see on TV (leather hat with alligator teeth brim, yelling 'krikee', and eating snakes in the 'outback').

Come to America, its huge!. I'm sure you'll love it as much as we love your country. If you find a place you don't like here, hop a plane/train/bus to another part of it. I don't know if its the best place in the world, but it really is amazing how much there is to do here and how far you can roam.

The people here are very friendly (though the north east is a little dicey), and we have every food in the world.

If I were to go to Amsterdam, I would ride a lot of trains and visit all the big sites.

I love this site.

Awesome... so now we're rewarding people for being ass holes in the air?

I'm pretty sure the offering of hybrid phones has been a planned step for the networks merging together for a long time.

According to Phonenews.com "Sprint has two voice networks, and is contemplating a third network for their 4G offering. The first is their CDMA network, the second is Nextel's former iDEN network. [...] The iDEN network exclusivly uses equipment from Motorola, with coverage in both the lower 800 MHz SMR and 900 MHz frequencies. Sprint has plans to maintain the iDEN network past 2009, however has not indicated the future of the network in subsequent years. PCS Intel has published several reports concerning the future of the network.

Sprint will begin a gradual of transition customers to the CDMA networks by releasing dual-network handsets that use both CDMA and iDEN. This transistion will begin in 2006 or 2007."

http://www.phonenews.com/phones/index.php/Sprint_FAQ#What_network_does_Sprint_use.3F

Alongside the "hybrid" phones you're discussing here are the "QChat" Phones which are compatible with the iDEN Direct Connect network (so that CDMA handsets can 'chirp' to older iDEN Direct Connect handsets while the older iDEN users transition to the newer CDMA based handsets. (http://telephonyonline.com/wireless/news/sprint-cdma-qchat-0512/)

Contrary to what your article states I believe "Ready Link" was a service offered before the Nextel Merger to compete with the Nextel Walkie-talkie. The reason Sprint did not further push this feature post merger is that "Ready Link" and "Direct Connect" are not compatible technologies and as such would have made for EVEN MORE confusion for an already confusing network.

The upcoming QChat protocal is completely forward (EV-DO rev. A) and backward compatible (communicating with iDEN).

I hope this helps some. :/
