I don't understand why people are not happy with this device being on Sprint. Sprint's network has been very reliable for me for the past 10 years I have been with them. Additionally, I will then point the question to the iPhone, why have that only on at&t? Good for Sprint, they will now create draw for webOS, at least until their exclusivity runs out.
Seems like a cool device, but why a cable technology, on a Dish receiver? Maybe Echostar will release this to consumers so that they can put their operator's CableCARD in?
I hope you didn't mean Pentium 2, even though sometimes I get the feeling AMD CPUs are that slow. All kidding aside though, 45nm processors in laptops would be very cool(literally as well).
Running Windows 7 smoothly on very old computer.

Compaq Presario S3000V

No Audio drivers initally, Windows Update downloaded them 5 minutes after install.
Wow, I have that same exact TV.
While recycling TVs is a great idea, not all can get to a center, which pose a problem. Big city people can easily find out information to get to one, while rural citizens are left with no clue. If the government or the CECB wants us to recycle, they need to inform people about where to dump their old TVs.
I don't think people understand it yet, but India's mobile phone market is flooded with Nokia products. In addition to that, people are more interested in HTC and ASUS phones than the iPhone. The lack of 3G makes the iPhone a deadweight for 3G data services, which is one of the reasons it is selling like hotcakes in other countries. Apple has no name/brand recognition(in India), making a $700 USD price point in India nonsensical for sales.
Thats funny, I still have that pictured TV. :) As long as there is a converter box available, people(like grandparents), will most likely keep their TVs as long as possible and forgo the extra cost of a new TV.
I actually like this idea, as I am in such a dispute right now where my cable company is having "trouble" porting my number back to Verizon. Like previous posters have said, if the big price-gouging cable companies can do it, why can't a big(and terrible) telco company(a.k.a. Verizon) do it? Their video PQ is truly amazing, that sometimes, it's worth the possibly slightly higher price(and trouble of changing your phone provider).
Hopefully, this will help their horrible customer service.... oh wait, the couple call centers they have now treat customers pretty bad as it is. With the rising proposed additions to HD content on FiOS, this one was in the bag.
Actually, IBM manufactured the PPC for Apple, until Apple made the switch to Intel processors.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
