The killer app for this is not "one game, two players", or "Versus". The killer app is using this for PiP, as several commenters have mentioned. Wife: E! channel Me: 360.

Or, to further the "kids" analogy, Kid 1: Nickelodeon, Kid 2: Uh..Nickelodeon 2? OR - Kid 1: TV (Nick), Kid 2: Video Game


Don't make a set top box support this, its just not going to happen. Instead bake the support for PiP style viewing into the TV itself and you'll sell units.

I only wish Amazon had some sort of deal along the lines of:

Buy the paper version of the book, get a token for the Kindle version free.

I'd buy a Kindle in a heartbeat. I love reading books on it and all its features. I DONT like the fact that I have zero actual books to build a real library with.

Call me old fashioned but when I'm 50 I wanna have a room in my house with thousands of books that I can go in, sit in a leather chair, sip some cognac and read a real, paper, book.

Can't do that with a library of Kindle files... :(

re-tweet, as in, I say "hello" and you say "rt hello".


Basically just re-broadcasting a message to the twitter-verse.

I don't know enough about jailbreaking to comment on that, but my initial argument was that stock (bare bones) Android is significantly more open than stock iOs.

Once they are rooted / jail broken, I'd imagine both are nearly identical in terms of being open.

I know I can do literally anything I want to my Evo, even at its own expense. Unsure about a jailbroken iPhone - never owned one or researched one.

You can install 99.999% of apps on Android without rooting. You can install maybe 50% of all apps on ioS without jail-breaking.

People root to get access to things that real basic consumers have no business messing around with.

Thats why its not 100% open. A 100% open platform would have 90% returns the next day when all the idiots out there are like "SO THER WAS THIS APP - IT SAID, OVERCLOCK CPU, so I SET it to like... FIVE GIGAHERTZ - phone EXPLODED?! Why?! REfund!!!!"

@techlord

2.2 has been available on the Evo for weeks now...

It was nearly perfect cept for a few bugs (namely Camera support), but those will be fixed within the next 48 hours because of the release of the source code.


So yeah, if you can root your Evo, you can have 2.2, no problems...

YES YES YES


I can finally unplug my Dreamcast hahaha
