I tried few free shows on iPhone 4 over 3G. Video quality is spectacular. I am not going to buy it because I am already paying for $120/month for cable and dvr.

Twitter had similar issue in their Text -> Tweet system. People were using softwares to send Text messages and using anybody's phone number as they want. They fixed it by using 4 digit pin and I think Posterous should do the same.

At least something good came out of Apple-Google rivalry.

He didnt comment on how much iPad battery was stripped down by MiFi.

I don't understand why Google is so into background image? Having feature is a good thing but imposing it on people is going to make them angry. I generally keep my browser homepage as Google, but this morning because of this background I had to change my homepage for today.

Absolutely true. Dropbox is one hell of a cloud backup solution. With Dropbox iPhone app, I have all my important files with me in my pocket.

Does anybody have numbers on their current free/paid users?

This Apple vs Google thing is turning really ugly. Next is what Google will shut down maps and youtube apps on iPhone?

I have seen few recent poll posts. My question is how to create poll on HN?

This may not sound very useful or relevant but just my two cents of contribution:

I have seen one episode of Grey's Anatomy in which there was very similar case. And they found that the guy had a non terminal tumor in his head and the tumor was pressing some nerves, which in turn was causing all the symptoms that he had. Talk to your doctor if they have not already done your head CT.

Facebook 0, Google 1

Not really. But Murphy's Law pretty much applies to everything.

Or may be use wired phones?

Watching it on Justin.tv's gorgeous iPhone App.

Yes currently I have iPhone but I don't like the fact that I will have to pay Apple $100 per year to run my own apps on my phone. I am a Java Developer and I love the fact that I can write Android apps in Java.

For that reason I always wanted to move to Android. I went to stores every time new Android device launched but I am not satisfied with the User Interface and touch screen sensitivity. Android UI is not quite up to the level where iPhone UI is or for that matter Palm WebOS UI.

Absolutely right move Google. User interface has been one of the weakest part of Android. Looking forward to see totally revamped UI in 2.3!

Thanks branden.

Thanks for the answers rjett.

Any acquisition offers?

You know my take on this whole facebook privacy issue?

Time has come for interactive Google Logos. This will be so much fun.

Yes I want my bank to be dependable but you don't have any real point why online only bank can not be dependable?

Before Amazon came along people probably thought that retailing can be done only in physical stores but it changed.

Another example is Netflix over Blockbuster. I think its time for online only bank. I don't remember visiting my bank ever after opening my account with them. We definitely need ATMs but not banking centers.

I can't believe he just wrote that to Steve Jobs. No wonder Apple reacted the way they did. Gizmodo/Gawker is in big trouble.

Before buying it make sure its not stolen or you will loose all your gadgets including your current Apple TV.!

And also Android based tablet with dual screen technology capable of reading books with e-inc screen and doing everything else with OLED touch screen.

Just installed and tried on Win XP. It definitely feels faster than Safari and Firefox.

Really nice energy saving tip I received the other day.

"Reduce your water heater temperature from 140f to 120f. you will not notice much difference and you will not have to mix cold water to bringdown the temperature of really hot water."

27 books per kindle looks kind of unrealistic. I have own kindle for last 6 months and I have bought only 3 books and few free ones. I have also bought few printed editions because they are not available on kindle.

No affiliate link for me on Safari on Win XP.
