Actually, that's one of the main reasons cellphones would be annoying in flight: ringtones
I can feel a rise of in-flight violent murders because of annoying ringtones if cellphones are allowed one day...
that's already possible
By giving him the attention he wants (and it's the only thing he is looking for), you all become his puppets...
I have owned a Motorola, a Nokia, a Samsung, and now a Sony Ericsson.
Does this mean I am schizophrenic?... :P
Of course their site is responding! If it was down, how would you send a Paypal donation from your TURNED-OFF computer?.....Wait, what? Oh right, it must also be irony day! :D :P
Murphy's law gets pretty strong when you start saying "let's wait a few weeks, a new version will come out"... Usually, you'll wait and wait and wait for the new version, end up buying the current version, receive it, and one day after the laste date where you could return your computer, BAM! new version...
a simple defintion of stealing is "take without the owner's consent". Whether the thing you are stealing is an object or intellectual property, stealing is stealing. If you want to use a software/OS without paying for it, that's your problem. But don't try to modify a definition just to avoid guilt.
that would be funny: "known bugs: please avoid dying between 1am and 2am on the second sunday of march"

actually, I just hope no one thinks about implementing a "schrödinger" option in the program...
< awfully ironic>
Wait until they make versions for the different OS:

- Mac: "the new iDie. It's amazing. We will revolutionize the way you decide to leave the physical world. It's connected to iLife and automatically makes a photo album and an iMovie with your iTunes songs from your last moments and send them to your iContacts at the date specified in iCal. And now you can run Windows too and it's got no virus and no spyware and it looks cool."

- Linux: "for this program to work, you must first install the binaries from urdead.sourceforge.net, and then download the lib files and then recomplie your kernel and then manually install the latest binary package with "su -c 'make install' urdead.tar.bz2" in the /dev directory, and then got to a lost page on the internet were you can find a freeware developed by a guy that will save you from writing the 3856 lines of code from the original program with just the arrow keys. The source is available at sourceforge.net/urdead-src.tar.gz.bz2. Please note that this is an alpha version. By the way, this program was coded on VI, because emacs sux!"

- Windows: "Okay so our software includes a vocal command. I'll make a little demonstration: "open MS-Deceased 2008"
- (opening program)
- "choose patient"
- (cheese patient, command unknown)
- sorry about that,"choose patient"
- (patient chosen)
- "check vital signs"
- (check viral signs, no virus detected)
- okayyy... let me try that again. "predict patient wish"
- (extinct patient with, please chose serum for extermination)
- "abort operation"
- (abortion starting....fetus not detected)
- Redmond, we have a problem.
- (Redmond, we are a problem)

For making such an accurate statement about the iPhone, you must own one. Why don't you tell us about it?....
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
