Now that I'm out of downtown Boston & into the suburbs, AT&T's edge speeds have increased quite a bit. #
AT&T's 2G edge network still slow as hell here in Boston. Big FAIL. #
AT&T's edge network is slow as hell in downtown Boston, despite full bars. Much worse than NYC. This is bad. #

Oh, and the 3G radio only costs about $36, yet Apple is charging a $130 premium for it. It should be integrated in all of them. #
According to iSupply, the iPad only costs about $270 to manufacture, giving Apple a considerable profit selling at $499 & up. bit.ly/cxpwoc #
OS 3.2 allows accessing docs marked as [...]

I actually quite like the 'Canvas' name for Apple's tablet. Much better than iSlate. iBook has already been used, & I'm not sure about iPad. #
I'm actually quite tired of the iPhone look, and hope the tablet & iPhone 4G have a new industrial design, taking cues from unibody MacBooks #
Apple may offer two different [...]

If you donate to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, Clinton's foundation gives 100% but Bush's only 99%. I always knew Bush was a greedy bastard! #
AT&T's $99.99 (unlimited voice/data) & $119.99 (+ unlimited SMS) for iPhone is still way more than T-Mobile's $79.99 unlimited everything. #
I'm glad to see Verizon & AT&T lower their unlimited [...]

Why does anyone still use RapidShare to share files? It no longer works unless you have a premium membership. Dropbox all the way for me. #
Interesting. Apple's Tim Cook is the top candidate for the CEO position at General Motors? Not sure I'd jump if I were him. #
Bonne année à tous! #
Bon réveillon de [...]

I like the little Santa cap on the VLC for Windows icon. Nice easter egg. #
Happy Boxing Day to all of my Commonwealth friends! #
Merry Christmas! #
iSlate doesn't have a good ring to it. iTab, iNote, & iPad are better, though I'm not a big fan of any of them either. Apple could do better [...]

Apple's API for allowing in-app access to the iPod music library should allow music shuffle & control via iTunes pop-up. #
I really like Gameloft's iPhone games. Unfortunately, most are very large & I only have a 8gb iPhone. #
No! A lack of volunteer Mac devs may force VLC Player, one of the best [...]

Better question: Why does Gears not work on Snow Leopard, and why can't it be fixed for Mac Chrome as an interim offline solution? #
If Google is stopping Gears development for Mac & Gmail doesn't yet support offline storage via HTML5, how do Mac Chrome user go offline? #
Just decided to try Snow Leopard's new [...]
