Umm...

Am I the only one who noticed that Coke is moving to Aluminum bottles; and going back to the good old days of the 8oz serving?

So...basically all the enhancements that Microsoft has announced for the Zune, except without the Buy from FM new feature, and Apple also has the iPod Touch.

Meh.

I'm actually kinda excited about the new features on the Zune; can't wait for the download/update next Tuesday.

Ya think Microsquish found out ahead of time what Apple was releasing; then put there PR out a day early to scoop the ipod features....? Gee, I wonder. Or maybe Apple found out what Zune was adding, and activated the hidden internal storage space in their devices to match.

I almost bought one, then I found the Sony Alpha200 for $300 less. 10.1MP vs 12MP - not enough difference to consider; no live view - don't need it; In camera stabilization - cheaper than lens-based IS; and...

The Canon XSi grip is still just tooo too small for normal size north american hands.

Simple fix? stop scrimping on the plastic and make the grip a tad bigger. Fix that ONE issue, and I might go back to Canon.

Really, I'll probably save my dukets for the next version 40D with the extras; I'll be done with entry-level DSLR in about a year or so.

Engage me with a gadget!

Please...pretty please?

The constitutional purpose for a Census is the apportionment of Congressional Districts. Any use beyond that, such as "how taxe dollars are divided out, needs are identified for depressed areas, etc." is beyond the scope and purpose of the Census. Again, judicious gleaning of data from existing sources would be much more efficient and timely than a 10-year Census. The very fact that its primary purpose is political should disqualify the data for any other applications.

I understand how the Census is being used; I contend that it is misuse.

Ummm....

Why do we need to do a "Census" if every year everyone has to file a tax return, or have a social security number to essentially perform some sort of transaction?

Can't we add up all of the social security numbers and call it good?

If someone is "off the net" and doesn't have an SSD, they aren't using gov't services and probably aren't voting, so, don't count them ok?

Illegal Aliens...yeah, they are going to answer those census takers real truthfully.

Read the report on the 2000 Census and see the evaluation of the magnitude of the errors, that is some real comedy. The error was significantly bigger than the oft-reported, unverified claim of XX millions of illegals. And how did they find out they botched it so bad? They compared to previous tax records....

Hello HP marketing department...

Um...catch a clue; this is an easy one:

THE OMNIBOOK IS BACK !!!!!!

Please rename this to OMNIBOOK 2100; or something similar, rather than the current lame product ID. By the way, adding "Compaq" does NOT add value.

Seems to me that putting a Bluetooth module in the EEE PC will pretty much kill this idea. Again, another manufacturer gets it wrong: its not smartphones that need a mini-laptop, its dumbphones. Get the carriers to stop hobbling bluetooth tethering, and allow any dumbphone to connect via BT to a min-laptop, and productivity problem solved!
