    Re “Cold Wars”

    Facebook currently affords users no backup capability for Contacts. Backups – good; me having control of my own data – good. Android teeny boppers inconvenienced – bad.

    Re HSUap for iPhones and NOT others.

    I think it reflects an intent of AT&T to charge by the bit. Canada’s Bell and Rogers tried this, with colossal fallout. It may be OK for Hitler (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-Mg6pq33Zc) but not for me. The HW may be expensive (Ars Technica from ’08 – http://arstechnica.com/old/content/2008/06/bells-p2p-traffic-issues-easily-and-inexpensively-solved.ars) but less so than many other investments. For perspective compare my 2GB/mo @ ~$25US, w/ buying a SATA 300 SSD, and getting Netfix to fill it with content and FedEx it to me. $12.50/GB v $2.20/GB!

  • @WizChic I loved it! Felt like a whole season in one episode.
  • @oldman916 Lots of headlines mis-stating that the release date is Oct. 25. It's the media that's confused.
  • Frame Rate begins soon, right now we're talking about squirrels and pigeons in the TWiT chat room http://t.co/KgxxBdQb
