The interval training problem is ridiculous, and today I found out that mine wasn't even playing music anymore. Garmin - get some music on your fitness trackers and I'm all yours!

She can ruin any show. Who is she blowing that she gets so much work? And how come someone with that surname has no humility whatsoever? Loathe that woman. She can ruin any show.

In the US, as competition enters a market, caps are traditionally lifted & speeds increased (something they could have done long ago, but they only react when the threat of losing a customer appears). All "unlimited" online backup solutions I've seen (Mozy, Backblaze, Carbonite) will delete your data after 30 days. These companies provide online backup, not online storage. If you want to use the cloud for online storage, you'll have to look at a package which limits the GB allowed to be saved, like SugarSync.

Your PC explodes in a shower of exploding stuff, so the Mozy/whatever client stops connecting and updating. Does your data still disappear in 30 days? It's not marked as deleted so for all Mozy/whatever knows it's still on your PC. Hang on. Your PC explodes in a shower of exploding stuff, so the Mozy/whatever client stops connecting and updating.

Jesus. Even iPhone is widescreen. It's garbage. The more I talk to people about it the more I think it's pointless. If there was some way to stick it to your fridge so that you could use it for recipes and shopping, I could see how it could have a US$200 price-point. As it is, it's like a PCSO. It’s a 4:3 screen.

Or me, probably. But we're geeks, and they're not the target market. Most people look at youbook and facetube. They forward email jokes to one another. Maybe play solitaire or something equally mindless while they watch TV. At the really extreme end of the spectrum, they might connect their camera and download some pictures. Most don't though, they leave them on there until the card breaks and then moan about it. They don't care if it's not got fifteen USB ports or a card reader or somewhere to attach your knob. They don't want to listen to Spotify while they write PHP scripts. They just want something simple, easy, and able to do what they want. Nothing more. The ipad is that thing. The rest of us can stick with our "proper" computers. It’s of no viable use to *you*. Or me, probably. But we’re geeks, and they’re not the target market.
