    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    Technology is an amazing thing and moves at blinding speed.  But I worry about the dark belly of technology.  There are more and more data breaches, more scams, more fraud that gets committed every day.  There are organized crime syndicates that only work with technology, like fake anti-malware...

    I can't wait to have a look at the TF Prime too.

    I'm coming out. Hi. I'm SoCal78.

    Panda, the twins are getting big.  So was the first year a blur?  I'm sure you're getting more sleep.

    Funky listing photos

    Either way, both homes are under construction.  You can see that the window you're looking out of is still being built also.

    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    I'd like to have a look at the ASUS TF Prime.  Microcenter.com is taking $50 off any advertised price on any Android, Windows or Blackberry tablet $299 and up.

    I agree.  Let them know why you are leaving.

    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    Seems the untethered jailbreak for the iPhone 4S (IOS5) and iPad2 are in the works. http://www.redmondpie.com/jailbreak-iphone-4s-5.0.1-ios-by-iphone-dev-team/ From Twitter:     VERY preliminary 4S JB: twitpic.com/76vcp4 twitpic.com/76vct2 (Huge missing pieces prevent public release. LOTS of...

    Extended Warranty

    Do you think the warranty is good to have, even if the house is brand new or almost new?

    Trick or Treating 2011?

    We go trick/treating around the neighborhood.  We usually run into a bunch of our neighbors.  We'll do that this year.  The wife is trying to make their costumes this year.

    Starting daycare...

    Somewhat on topic... so a friend of mine told me of how his daughter was abused (mentally/psychologically) at her previous daycare.  She was so stressed at the school that she started losing her hair.  Long story short, my friend talked to a lawyer to sue, but was advised not to.  The...

    Is Netflix going to die in the next year?

    It'll be interesting also to see how well the non-studios fare as they try to create original content.  I know Youtube and Netflix is trying to create original content.

    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    The wife doesn't stream anything on her cell, doesn't really use it for music, doesn't watch movies on it... so the non-expandable memory is not a issue.  For her, I think ICS and the better screen will be benenficial. If the monthly cost for an iPhone wasn't so high, I'd switch her to an iPhone.

    Is Netflix going to die in the next year?

    So how will Netflix retain/gain more subscribers without infuriating them by upping subscription fees?  They've got to somehow pay for the increased content costs.  Just being a leader in your business doesn't equate to being profitable.

    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    The reason the iPhones have updated OSes is not because Apple wants them to have the latest and greatest.  The more likely reason is because they want to re-lock all of the jailbroken iPhones.  Keep pushing updates to discourage jailbreaking. I looked into the cost of switching to ATT for an...

    Is Netflix going to die in the next year?

    I'm wondering how Netflix will convince subscribers to pay for the higher cost that is being imposed on them by the content providers.  If the studios are demanding more for their libraries, Netflix needs to somehow generate more revenue or pass on the costs.  Subscribers aren't liking the...

    Is Netflix going to die in the next year?

    It seems that Neflix's earning's announcement (noting the 800,000 subscriber loss) was pretty bad and analysts' outlook is pretty bad for the company.  Do you think Netflix will die?  I know a ton of people that are subscribers and some have dropped cable/satellite for it.  Thoughts...

    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    Yeah, I don't know how they'd be able to price it too low considering the cost of the new Tegra 3 chip and other new hardware.

    2011: Year of the iPad 2!

    So Asus TF2 is supposed to sport ICS?  If they do come out at $499, I don't think they'll do well against iPad2.  If it came out at $399, I'd buy it (my first tablet).
