maziar32150 down and 9 up THEORTCIAL. No way in hell are you actually going to get thos speeds... I pretty consistently get 25-30 down and 5-6 up. Is it 50/9 Mbps? No, but it's damn fast for a phone (and it really isn't that far off either)...

thekr1stVerizon's 4G sucks. It may be fast, but they "data manage" their network by funneling through a Proxy in LA, California. Fast doesn't cut it. You will have crappy pings and unreliable web surfing if you tether. Plus remember that you will being charged a small fortune. You must not own...

joytech22Not bad! It's feature list is certainly an attractive one for people what want a phone with a little of "everything". Pity it doesn't have GPS though. Why wouldn't it have GPS? Every blackberry I've ever seen has had GPS, and I don't see why this one would be any different.

dogman_1234That is what you believe.You cannot argue faith. Sure you can. In the absence of evidence, the simplest explanation is preferable. That explanation includes neither deities nor supernatural jesus zombies. (You're welcome to believe what you want, but don't criticize people who have...

otacon72FF4 can't do flash FF=Fail. What? I'm running it right now, and flash works just fine...

There's a lot of misinformation here. Although a meltdown will severely damage a powerplant, modern powerplants are unable to have anything like what happened at Chernobyl. Chernobyl had no containment vessel, and a poor design which resulted in an explosion in the core, spreading radioactive...

I have a blackberry, and I like it. My next phone will probably be either Android or Windows Phone 7, but Blackberries are still nice phones. They aren't as good as iPhones or Android if all you care about is twittering or facebook, but if you just want a nice smartphone with a great calendar, a...

I never understood the point of this kind of minimalism. I have 1200 pixels of vertical space. I prefer to have a real set of menus and control buttons up there in addition to a full width tab bar.

First off, a thinkpad is a great choice. Second, I'd get more like 4GB of RAM, as 2GB is really quite minimal for any modern system. Also, the graphics cards in laptops are very rarely upgradeable, so I wouldn't count on that if I were you. I'd get a graphics card that's good enough from the...

grovebornHow come this is software related?When using bumper seems to fix this problem, so... still software?Foxikk, if you read the entire article, you may discover that it's because the software is already reporting that the signal is much higher than it actually is. Therefore, when you...

wotan31Why? Vista was a disaster of an OS, reminiscent of Win ME. And 7 has high system requirements and a high price tag - something that folks with perfectly good XP machines can't justify upgrading. Remember that since Vista was so awful, all the OEM's continued to offer XP on brand new...

rajatonCheck out the kids who sent the camera up into space for under $200 Maybe they'll do something like that! That was on a balloon, and made it to 100,000 feet or so. It's MUCH cheaper to do that than it is to launch a satellite. Satellites are many thousands of dollars a pound, minimum.

back_by_demandWho's rules is correct.The use of the punctuation is not truncation, it is plural in the case of possessive, "The rules of who".To remove the punctuation "whos" would be a clumsy attempt at pluralisation and its usage in this sentence would be nonsense. Nope. "Whose rules" is...

ParsianSuch a waste of energy, since they could of achieved that amount of lumens by 4 or 5 Metal Halide Bulbs since they are rated at 250 W and produce 20,000 Lumens:http://www.prolighting.com/mh250-c-u.html They probably did use HID bulbs - did you expect them to use incandescent bulbs...

A few hundred? This is probably the best in that rough price range: http://svsound.com/products-sub-box-10nsd.cfm
