Does anybody ever stop to think for one minute that unsubsidized phones are only cheaper in the long run if you decide to NOT USE IT AT ALL?? I guess you could nix data to save money, but that would be a crime on a device like this. You will be paying for service regardless of how you buy the device!!!

All you get is the peace of mind that comes from knowing you can shop around for service (as long as the phone is supported on multiple networks).

And as for everyone who immediately calls "iTard! iTard!"... SuperSexyErik didn't even mention any Apple tech. Grow up. The iPhone and the Touch Pro are both great phones.
@Anthony:
It's A-GPS, which IS true GPS. Basically, it uses cell phone triangulation in order to get an approximate area, then uses the real GPS chip to narrow it down to an exact location. This greatly reduces the time it takes for a GPS to get a satellite lock. The A stands for Assisted.

In the case of the iPhone, they don't even use the word GPS at all.

Carl, the multitouch controls have since been fixed. I can confirm that letting off the d-pad does indeed stop mario from running now. If you read the CHANGELOG for the app, you'll see that controls were the big fix from v.0.58 to 0.99.

Cheers
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
