All this downward-vertical-scrolling is getting old. Wake me when they figure out how to do a horizontal scroll, or upward scroll.... or heck, no scroll at all.
They should totally partner up with Wowee.
It's the GBASPDS!
Spill over comment from "editing profile" post to find my profile quickly...
OK... so according to this little Q&A, it's "not illegal" for an end user to unlock the cellphone, assuming the primary purpose is to connect to another cell network... *BUT*, whoever is providing the unlocking mechanism/software/service is in trouble, because their primary objective is to gain profit from said service (similar to eBay flippper comment).

So unless the end user is a hacking ninja, the unlocking of each iPhone will most likely cause at least 1 party in legal trouble.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS!!

This just the Vantec Nexstar LX. Go ahead and google "Nexstar LX NAS corrupt", and you'll see why.

I've had nothing but trouble with the NAS function with this enclosure.

1) After continuous read/write for 24hrs using the NAS (not USB), the chipset would freeze and you can't perform any I/O functions unless you let it cool and reboot.

2) Most importantly, writing a large amount of data using the NAS can cause data corruption. Not only that, but in some instances, the file name turns into some weird not standard character, and prevents you from deleting it, etc. The only way I got read of the corrupted data was by formatting the whole partition.

Right now, I'm only using this thing as a USB enclosure, which seems to work fine without the hardware failure and data corruption. But who needs to pay $80 bucks just for an USB 2.0 HDD enclosure?!
In sony's case, that would be 'batteries on fire' :P
"We have _WILL_ have ample supplies of both models to meet the needs of our consumers for the foreseeable future."

Is that a type-o for 'still'?
Bleed together, or breed together?
"every Apple employee would be getting a free 8GB iPhone"

Assumption 1: that _NOT_ every Apple employee works in the States, or uses AT&T as their cellular provider

Assumption 2: that the iPhone given will be useful in its full glory -- at least the 'phone' function will work

Can we then assume that the iphone is _UNLOCKED_?!?!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I have a MacBook Pro and an Xbox 360 and I would like to get a 20- to 24-inch display that will support both devices. The speakers should be inbuilt, or there should be an aux out on the display to hook up external speakers. Help! Please!"
