Thanks for the chance, Engadget! Perhaps some sort of interstellar meeting with pointy eared people could change mankind's drive for wealth into curiosity and exploration? ;)

DSLReports test measures in Kbps, not KBps.

KBps = KiloBytes per second
Kbps = Kilobits per second

8 bits per Byte.

used to consult for SOX compliance, and blaming a $20 upgrade fee on a law is gross misinterpretation of Sarbanes Oxley. Apple wants to recognize revenue on the iPod Touch upgrades, and in order to do it, they have to charge for it. That's all there is to it. Why Apple wants to recognize revenue on iPod Touch upgrades is not hard to infer:
1. they want more money (they are after all for-profit with share holders)
2. they developed these applications with upgrade revenue recognition in mind to help cover the cost of development (but really how much could these apps have cost to develop?)
3. oh I don't know... to see how munch of a sucker they can make of consumers? oh wait, that's #1...

What the hell? Engadget get your terminology straight:

"Moving files between partitions"? um, I don't know of an OS that CANT do this, so long as the partitions are mounted. Of course Windows lets you move files between partitions. It's OSX that can't write to NTFS. Ugh.

Yeah and maybe they'll get off their ass and get their new S60 devices to pair with BMW bluetooth correctly.

Engadget saved my mother's life, and it can save yours too.

Dear Engadget,

I left my hat at your house last night, as awkward as that might be, could I stop by and pick it up, and maybe a prize too?
