Yes. Also, odds of you actually buying one: 0
Your power to predict the fact that price drops happen over time is uncanny. Will the PS3 drop in 3 years as well? I will wait while you consult with the overlords of time and space.
16GB for $89?

Three letters.

LOL!
"MAMA PAJAMA, I'm a total asswipe!"
OMG IT'S AUDIOCLIQUE!

Oh wait, I forgot, nobody knows who that is or gives a shit.

Except the super emo mod boy up there, I guess.
"Supposedly all they did was take the existing chipset and disable DX10 support."

Wow, if that's true... what a bunch of slimebags.
For battery life. In what I've seen, the Z series is easier on the battery and runs much cooler, and does so without a significant hit in performance. As for the LE, if it loses Direct X functionality, then it probably also uses less power (or so I would assume that the weaker yet similar architecture released around the same time by the same company would use less power). So a Z series with an LE, I would think, would give you some decent bang for the buck (as far as heat and energy is concerned).
I'd like to see the Ion paired with a Z series Atom. Is that possible or is there some difference that prevents it? Actually, if the Ion LE uses less battery life than the standard, the Z series with the LE would be absolutely ideal.

In real world testing, what is the hurt of the Ion on battery life in general anyway?

Important questions... for me.
Not every culture has to pronounce words the same way.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
