Why am I not able to login to my Youtube account? Anyone else having this trouble?
Well an unlocked 4GB iPhone is better than no iPhone at all.. Right?
I have TWC (living in Southern NH) and I took a gander at the site to verify the info about ESPN-HD. I have the HD-Tier as well FYI. According to the site, ESPN-HD is just an HD Channel, and not included in the HD-Tier.

But I don't pay $10/month for the HD-Tier. I pay $4.95/month.

I as well was not saying they were all crap. I personally own 8 titles:

DBZ
Excite Truck
LoZ
Madden
Rayman
Wii Sports
Elebits
WarioWare

I personally don't enjoy playing most of the titles from Movies/TV shows (which make up a good percentage of the list). I also plan on getting Sonic and Wii Play when I can find them.

I went through the lists again to double check, they had some EA title double listed. The total Wii games goes down to 36 total games since it's release:

Sonic and the Secret Rings
Wii Play
WarioWare: Smooth Moves
Chicken Little: Ace in Action
Elebits
Far Cry: Vengeance
Metal Slug Anthology
Super Swing Golf
World Series of Poker: Tournament of Champions
The Ant Bully
Barnyard
Ice Age 2: The Meltdown
Open Season
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent
Need for Speed Carbon
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Call of Duty 3
Cars
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2
Excite Truck
The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy
GT Pro Series
Happy Feet
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Madden NFL 07
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
Metal Slug Anthology
Monster 4x4: World Circuit
Rampage: Total Destruction
Rapala Tournament Fishing!
Rayman: Raving Rabbids
Red Steel
SpongeBob SquarePants: Creature from the Krusty Krab
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam
Trauma Center: Second Opinion

Trust me, most of those games are crap, but we weren't talking about quality.
I didn't add a single VC game
I just went through all the "New Games This Week" posts from Joystiq from the release week of the Wii/PS3 til now. Here's some numbers:

Total Releases (from 11/13 - now):
Wii - 43
360 - 25
PS3 - 19

Total Games after Release of Systems (11/20 - now):
360 - 17
Wii - 16
PS3 - 5

2007 Releases (1/1 - now):
360 - 7
Wii - 3
PS3 - 2


P.S. - I couldn't find any releases for the release week of 12/25/2006, so if there were any that week, they were not included in these numbers.
I just think it's funny when you look at the Wal-Mart flyer with all of their X-mas deals and there is an entire section devoted to the Wii, accessories and games.

As for the PS3...they don't even mention the system besides like 2 games, since they don't have it to sell.

I'm sure other retailers will pull the PS3 out of their catalogue's as well since they know by now they will not be getting many more before the holidays.
I returned my copy of Red Steel for Rayman...which I have enjoyed a LOT more than RS. My reasons for returning it? It glitched 20 minutes into it. Completely froze my system.

I don't care how good it might have been, that's just utter crap that it did that. And from what I have read in reviews (I was seeing if this glitch was a one time thing), I had found that there were more glitches in my future if I kept playing.

As was stated before, I'll wait for MP:3 and Far Cry.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
