A sample of the testimonials on this guys' website:
"I think it helps. I wasn't sure but now after using it for a few days I can tell it helps..." Sound real confident there, don't we par'ner?

"...It really makes me fell better right away. maybe it's a placebo thing, but it really seems t work for me." Rest assured, it's a placebo. LCDs cure nothing. If anything, it'll hurt your eyesight when viewed in the dark.

"...I used it on an 8 hour drive back to school that usually makes me start falling asleep." You used this while driving? Hopefully not in California...

Worth mentioning, all of those "clinical" studies are general references and don't specifically refer to this app.

Um...it does do apples...and a lot of other things too just FYI.

I suspect that they knew that they wouldn't have enough consoles to fulfill demand in the US.

There are several old-school CRT type of HDTVs under 30 in that you could probably get between 400-600 bucks.

guess that means no more XBL Content bonanazas :``(

Good point Ken.

So, why would I, or anyone for that matter, buy less than one-sixth the value for one-sixth the price? Because they are either bored or they don't want to be left out. From a mathematical standpoint, the new COD 2 maps are an imbalanced purchase that screams unfair to the low wage worker.


800 pts for 5 maps.. that translates into ten bucks. Ten bucks is about one sixth the original price of COD 2. Yet it doesn't have one sixth the gameplay value. Yes the maps are new, providing "interesting" new opportunities on COD2 to wipe out whiney 13 year olds (notice that I used the qualifier "whiney." I know that there are a few admirable 13 yrs olds out there), but what's really new? There isn't a new single player campaign. There aren't any new weapons. No new gameplay types. Heck, from what I have noticed of these new maps is that they are slightly changed reshashes of the single player maps.
Now, I know i am going to hear fanboys say, "well, no one says you have to buy it." True. I am simply pointing out from a logical, mathematical stance that you are getting screwed. If you still don't mind plunking down 10 big ones instead of putting it towards Gears of War or the next big shooter, be my guest. Settle for the lower quality here and now instead of the upper-class game of the future (which ironically , will probably follow in past predecessors' footsteps of releasing underrated, overhyped content for your hard-earned bank bucks).

In the end, only we, the consumer, are able to decide whether this new map pack is worth ten dollars, 20 Del Taco tacos, or 200 minutes of boring work time.

My advice: Let's think big picture. If you live at home, loan that ten dollars to your parents on 15% interest. Then, when Gears of War rolls around, you will have enough for its snazzy new map pack.

So do I get a star? ;)
Now let the flames begin...

Now make me a Firefox extension and I will be happy :)

Finally, a cheap way to use wi-fi hotspots. I wonder if it will be able to do AJAX? Though most mobile browsers don't, it'd be cool to access my Netvibes.

Wasn't Twilight Princess shown at E3 for the Wii? It seems like that is missing from the vid collection.

Uh...Zero...IDK if you know this buuuuttt....the RIAA can still sue you AND WIN even if you download from a certain non-DRMed Russian mp3 site. It may be legal in Russia's copyright law, but here in America you are still liable.
