Jul 12th 2008 5:51PM No shortages? That's bull. They completely shafted northern indiana. Still waiting on mine to be drop shipped.

Jan 15th 2008 12:53PM Instead of liveblogging this - wouldn't it be a helluva lot easier to just IRC it?
This seems like you are using the worst possible medium to give live updates. Set up a restricted posting IRC and then people can set up a chat channel next to it. Problem solved with 1980's technology.

Nov 5th 2007 12:45PM So, it has a fully featured browser - why build specific phone apps? And if it's open source so that people can modify it for their needs - how do we really have a standard? Doesn't that just invite competition to make their apps work and make other carrier's apps not work?
Another mobile circle jerk as far as I can tell. Wake me when it has some market share.

Aug 24th 2007 10:14PM Easy. Take the word "Sony" off of it and have some other company that actually gives a damn about making a useful device make one. I vote for Apple.
Tim Duncan, Joe Crawford and the NBA {Blog Maverick}
Apr 16th 2007 2:08PM Luckily I couldn't give two shakes about the NBA. It's been dead to me since the Wizards were the Bullets. Might as well be professional bowling or the International Lawn Dart championships.
Imus, FCC, Cable Limits and Corporately Owned Media {Blog Maverick}
Apr 13th 2007 11:53AM "Things may be different in 10 or more years, but right now Americans still consume media and advertisers support media on traditional TV and radio outlets"
And how do you think that shift is going to happen? Part of it is technical, but those barriers are going down by the minute now. I think its going to TAKE some "big star" to say "F it - I'm going independent online" to pull people to the medium. Similar to how Howard Stern sold millions of Sirius accounts and receivers.
Do I think Don Imus is the one to do that? No, I don't. But there are plenty of other "stars" out there who could.
Frankly, I don't need them anyway. I have enough TWiT network and Revision3 content to keep me nice and happy. If "big media" is going to be dumbasses, that's fine by me, they'll do it without my eyeballs and ears on their advertisers.
I really think that in 10-20 years we will be talking about "the death of big media television and radio" the same way we talk about "the death of newspaper publishers" today.

Just like Apple.

Jan 9th 2007 1:05PM "Do they realize that the only format alowed to be viewed on 360 is WMV?"
Not if you go install TVersity.
"I prefer a variety of supported media formats,"
Then you sure as shit dont like Apple. Why are you here then?
