I just want to be able to use my Big Blizzard Bear mount on toons on realms other than where I first used the gift bind to account (HA) card and yes use it on other faction toons as well.

after almost 1 1/2 years I still get comments about it and it is nice that it is auto speed adjustable

I just want it to be what it says on the lable "bind to Account"

There have quite a few "fixes" to the wall climbing that we once could do and the Draw you mention was one of the last ways in to be closed. I think you may still be able to die in a duel and then res inside of old Ironforge but I would not be surprised if that too was now blocked one thing the next expansion will do when we can fly in the old content is provide access to many areas that now are just seen under flight routes and perhaps then Blizz will make use of some of these spots at last

For me it is Old Ironforge and it's passage to the mountain airstrip I recall getting in there when WoW first launched and it was rather easy to do back then and I remarked on the huge amount of work that had gone into an area never seen or used or (the air strip) just used for eye candy on a flight path it would be nice if Old Ironforge found a place in the next expansion

I like the Terry Prattchet references in Theramore (Captain Vimes et al) I have toons named Mort (several with variations in spelling) Ponderstibns Hughnonn Mustrum and about 20 more most all my toons have reference to the works of my favorite living author so it was fun to see that someone at blizzard likes his work as well.

one other thing this just shows how tough a show like Top Gear is to produce every few months

First you are quite right this is a very cheap ripoff the the "track is a painted auto cross course with out even cones to try to keep the car where it should be (did you see where she totally cut a painted chicane with no penalty?) and course is smaller than most supermarket parking lots
this format for the show is all wrong for prime time TV it needs to be more like classic variety shows were (think Carol Burnett show for example) but I doubt that Jay is enough of an actor to pull off that kind of show... the 2 min of Jay adoration at the start of each show are stomach turning OK for the firist show of program... but every night? come on.

I gave it a week and it is off of my DVR for good. if there are any amusing car crashes in the future I will catch them when the video is run here.

I did get the Direct TV package last year and I have been quite pleased with the Big blizzard bear mount (But still steamed that it it only works for one faction on one server) this year the non combat bet was not enough incentive to push me over the edge also I am not a rts fan ant this year looks to be focused on starcraft

My Realm (Exodar) is still not up! so I have gone to a realm that is a just created a death knight so I still have no solid take about 3.1 are others having realm stability problems? there is nothing about it on the WoW login screen

Every time I fly north out of Ironforge I look down at the air field and all the NPCs (even a flight point) I wonder about the area and the adjacent Old Ironforge and wonder if any of this content will become available to play in.

A huge amount of work looks to have gone into it and I recall being able to get into old Ironforge about a year or so before BC came out... As I recall it involved dyeing next to a wall in the kings chamber and getting resurrected on the other side Memory is a bit dim but I recall being very impressed.

A removable Battery increases weight and reduces the structural integrity of the case.
The battery itself then requires its own case and the contacts can become dirty and cause problems and you open the door to latch problems.

All that said I have a 17" Mac G4 Laptop and a spare battery for it. I thought I would need it on long flights but I never have as every flight of more than 2 hours has had a laptop plug at my seat. (I have a universal plug adapter for this use).

the only time I have needed the spare battery has been during power outages due to weather (ice storm etc.)

so All In all it will not keep me from upgrading to the new 17" Mac Pro... If my tax refund is large enough.
