;; i want a touch hd2 please donate to me
Hmmm i thought i pay Tivo money every month to be able to keep adds out of my face, and fast forward tv away from ads? Now they are going to throw more ads into my face? Looks like it time for me to get raid of tivo and do my own tivo/watching tv/fast forwarding tv on my windows 7 machine..
this kinda sucks, the new features are cool and stuff, but its stupid, xbox was suppose to be for hardcore gamers, now its for emo idiots all over the place, and for those social networking losers that has to post everything they are doing down to the minute, bunch of sh*t. what happened to the good old, gaming system only days? back when stuff was simple and not so social garbage.
not trying to be flaming but

1961: IBM delivers the IBM 7030 Stretch supercomputer, which uses 64-bit data words and 32- or 64-bit instruction words.
1974: Control Data Corporation launches the CDC Star-100 vector supercomputer, which uses a 64-bit word architecture (previous CDC systems were based on a 60-bit architecture).
1974: International Computers Limited launches the ICL 2900 Series with 32-bit, 64-bit, and 128-bit twos-complement integers; 64-bit and 128-bit floating point; 32-bit, 64-bit and 128-bit packed decimal and a 128-bit accumulator register. The architecture has survived through a succession of ICL and Fujitsu machines. The latest is the Fujitsu Supernova, which emulates the original environment on 64-bit Intel processors.
1976: Cray Research delivers the first Cray-1 supercomputer, which is based on a 64-bit word architecture and will form the basis for later Cray vector supercomputers.
1983: Elxsi launches the Elxsi 6400 parallel minisupercomputer. The Elxsi architecture has 64-bit data registers but a 32-bit address space.
1991: MIPS Technologies produces the first 64-bit microprocessor, the R4000, which implements the MIPS III ISA, the third revision of their MIPS architecture.[2] The CPU is used in SGI graphics workstations starting with the IRIS Crimson. Kendall Square Research deliver their first KSR1 supercomputer, based on a proprietary 64-bit RISC processor architecture running OSF/1.
1992: Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) introduces the pure 64-bit Alpha architecture which was born from the PRISM project.[3]

"1994: Intel announces plans for the 64-bit IA-64 architecture (jointly developed with Hewlett-Packard) as a successor to its 32-bit IA-32 processors. A 1998 to 1999 launch date is targeted. SGI releases IRIX 6.0, with 64-bit support for the R8000 chip set."

and then

2003: AMD introduces its Opteron and Athlon 64 processor lines, based on its AMD64 architecture which is the first x86 based 64 bit processor architecture. Apple also ships the 64-bit "G5" PowerPC 970 CPU courtesy of IBM. Intel maintains that its Itanium chips would remain its only 64-bit processors.

64 bit was out from the start, intel planned to made 64 mainstream way before amd could ever tought of it.
Lol so funny, amd still a shitty company, even with this much money they still cannot do anything worthwhile. funny how the only way amd makes money is by sueing company and even still they cannot progress into anything lolamd. amd need to stop being a leech and try to come up with stuff that actually worthwhile to buy.
@RandomGuy

not trying to flame or fanboying the subject but, what ur experienceing could be just firmware problem due to w/e rom your using, because stuff coming out from sites like xda are pretty awesome, with little to none issues to freeze and lock ups, and there is so many tweak tools out there.
Not sure if this comment has been posted, but this is in response to the "little too late" comments and "winmo is dead", apparently you guys haven't heard of xda-dev and other sites like it? And as a member go check it out, then come back and post, xda-developers.com
lately its getting sadder and sadder coming to engadget to see crap like that.

apple bs microsoft now apple is the one losing face,

usto to be att bragging now, getting sh*tface by verizon

now this crap with nvidia new comer in cpu game, trying to take down big down intel, so sadly when thing back fire on nvidia.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
