Nokia's S60 Touch Interface announced {Engadget}
Oct 16th 2007 7:38PM I think a lot of your Apple freaks are missing the idea - it is a proof of concept of an OS with its options that 3rd party manufactuers can use, it not an actual product.
Therefore different models could use the stylus or not, and variations of a status bar - or not. I mean hell S60 today as is, does quite will with NO status bar and NO stylus. So clearly what they are proving is options for the mix.
The problem is you folks are too used to Apple's "Ford Model T" straightjacket: they lock you down in a ridig OS and firmware with no real options for customisation. S60 and Nokia is all about having a base OS that is spread over a variety of models and implementations.
You will fail to understand if you are unable to get your head out of your own....a--...em....paradigm.
Panasonic updates ultraportables with Core 2 Duos {Engadget}
Apr 27th 2007 9:01AM 1.06GHz is pretty slow, I had the W5K model and it was somewhat slow on multitasking or anything CPU intensive. And I'm no power-user.
Core 2 Duo will help, but at only 1.06 Ghz, still gonna be slow becasue of the Vista overhead. But those machines have no fans so they are never gonna up the speed much other wise they will have heat-related damage,

Why should anyone be rushing to buy 128 kbps (read: FM radio quality) EMI tracks on Itunes? Dont you realize that the reason they are selling you a crap quality rip that it is just another form of DRM? They degrade it so that you cant do much with it and they dont care about your listening experience. Duh - why support that.
The only thing I pay for are CD's DVD's or lossless tracks from places like Bleep.com. The rest they can keep - aint paying for anything in useless sound quality I cannot rip and and play in any format I like
