I think the green one is nice!

Re: "Can't say we've heard of the Pleco Chinese Dictionary app prior to today even though it's been around for two full version releases."

This dictionary app has existed for a long time - it came out originally for the Palm OS platform, I think in 2002 or so. The developer eventually made a version for Windows Mobile as well. The iOS version of the app only came out some time in 2009. The company is very good in that you can transfer your licenses from platform to platform as you upgrade your devices.

Per one of the devloper's newsletters, apparently an Android version of the app is being considered; but no idea when that would actually be available.

Unlocking my phone to use local SIM cards when I travel. Much easier than carrying a cheapie voice only cell phone + iphone in airplane mode.

Maybe they are trying to write-off all the Kin-related expenses prior to the end of their financial year?

I sent my .02 to this shining example of managerial excellence.

Would love an iPad...especially when it's free!

Is the weather icon still 73 degrees and sunny?

$9.99 per month - Seriously?

One can have a Netlfix online account and some number of physical DVDs sent to their house (one at a time though) for that much.

I am not sure where that they think the market will be for this sort of service at that price.

(Though I must agree with other people who posted earlier; if additional services like web-viewing were bundled in, then the subscription fee could be a bit easier to swallow)

Only a few metro areas in the US and/or Canada are dense enough where there'd be any number of people with enough non-car commutes to justify this sort of thing.

I'm not expecting any big successes here.

I'd love some random stuff!

Please please please....daddy needs a new laptop; old one is sputtering away; not having to shell out for a new one would be very helpful.
