Wow, AT&T must not know how fragile their glass house is.

They imply that they have a worldwide network in the voiceovers. It is only at the end in text at bottom do they explain that what they really mean is the most phones in the most places. And they still never say those places are covered by other companies.

There won't be a netbook version, starter won't be sold in retail. Home Premium should run well, check out the RC if you want.
"Just checked. No XP never came with a DVD codec, not through windows update either. You have to pay for power DVD, nvidia cinema or some other third party crap like cyberlink. Vista too in exception to ultimate"

No, Home Premium and above included DVD playback. Do better research.


" And still no spell checker. Boooo!"

There a plenty of free ones.


" To play DVDs and spell check your mail you'll need over 300$ in extras."

No, you need $0 in extras if you have a version that isn't starter (and that only comes on pre-built machines and if there was a DVD drive the OEM would include a player)
It sounds like a poor UHF antenna, or a badly-aimed one.

Also, most stations that switched frequencies are the ones not at full power yet.

Well, bitrate considerations aside, Wii would be capable of DVD quality. That's not crap.
The build quality on their business machines has been high,

Though, if it's build quality you really want it's gotta be a ThinkPad.
Dang thing didn't reply to the right person.

Oh well, turns out that it's really not any thicker either according to Apple's site, if the previous spec story on this site is correct about the 4310s being an inch thick.
"0.95 inch (2.41 cm)"
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
