Ah, thank you for the response Roberrt :)

Now that you mention it, it does say so on the website. I guess I might need some glasses after all!

Overall a nice little serice/program though... especially if you send big files. At the moment I use Dropbox's public folder for files up to 300MB, mainly because that's the biggest size I currently send to my clients (mostly vector work). But occassionally I have to make a package that exceeds the 1GB barrier quite easily if it's a big package, which would make a move to Memeo's Send a very easy step :)

Can't say that I understand how to set up an FTP-server on my home computer; even though I'm decently tech-minded, I can't seem to grasp the right info on how to set up an FTP-server. Too difficult for me I guess ;)
Something I couldn't find out on their website; do you need Memeo Send to receive files as well?

If so, I don't think all our clients are willing to install a program just to receive files... at least not while things like Yousendit and Megaupload are available to everyone without installing a thing for the receiving end.
Something that's not quite clear to me regarding the new Druid's toolip-weapon change, is wether or not the shown FAP includes the other stats as well.

For example:
Old "druid"-only weapons had stats like STR/AGI, and on tóp of that a nice amount of FAP.

New available weapons (like the Titansteel weapons) now shów the FAP for druids, but also have +100str for example. The shown FAP for druids, does that include the +100str, or does the +100str gets added as an additional stat?

With the rather big change regarding the FAP-tooltip, I'm not sure if the shown FAP includes all stats or not... would be a shame to spend 2000g on a Titansteel weapon if the +100str doesn't come as an addition to the +1800FAP :)
I love their service as well, but the only thing I'm not content with is their privacy and usage terms. They say they may allow third parties to email us (read: spam), and use a cookie to watch what sites we visit (outside of the DropBox site).

Those are the only 2 points that really bug me, but other then that it works really well :)

Ohyeah... and their uploadspeed isn't superfast yet, but that might probably change in time ;) (only 52KB as we speak)
I can't find that folder to be honest... I'm using Tiger 10.4.11, but the Coreservices folder isn't in my Useraccount's library nor my Systemaccount's library. Is this a Leopard only feature? :)
What I'd like to know is; will an iPod Touch with the iPhone apps, lóse those apps if you hack it? I bought the iPhone apps but want more, but I don't know if they'll simply be deleted, or if I have to buy them again if I ever decide to re-legalise my iPod Touch :)
The reason why it seems that the batterylife has gone down, is because they no longer provide an optimal batterylife anymore, but give us an estimate on the batterylife in a "real life" environment... in their case, having it on+wifi. Hence the reason why it only appears that the batterylife has gone down.

Wouldn't make any sense if that was really the case either, since they're using a more power-efficient CPU, and the "Pro's" are using a more power-efficient led-display as well ;)
What I personally would love to see, is Skype with a web-version for the iPhone. Just login at home through your WiFi connection, and talk for free and with a lot of fun with your iPhone. Technically it should be possible, although the webcam-function would obviously has to be left out :)

Skype + iPhone = ultimate VoiP fun ^^
If people want all those features, get Final Cut Express/Pro. iMovie is pointed towards the simple consumer who doesn't know/doesn't want to know about all those special things. They want to literally drag-n-drop to make a "UbAhCoOl" movie for their family ;)

But I do feel that iMovie should work/look a bit more like iPhoto, especially when it comes to themes and/or menu's.
My favourite scene is définately the scene where Leonidas bowed before "the King of Kings" close to the end of the movie. He takes off his shield and helmet, bowes... only to get up and gave that "king of kings" a bigger smile then he bargained for; a big spear sliths the side of his face. The explanation after that was just awesome!

Somehow that scene was more impressive to me then the "black sky" because of all the arrows and also better then the scene where Leonidas kicks that messenger into a nice big, bottomless pit :)
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
