So what about local media playback? Do I have to use picasaweb to upload my pics one at a time? This seems like a netbook OS, but the biggest problem with netbooks is that they aren't always connected. Wifi connections at public places aren't cheap and neither is a data card from a cell carrier which is usually outrageous and never has a great signal when your indoors.

I think this should just be rolled into Android as an optional front end. I don't see how it benefits them to have this second OS that will be very handicapped (unless they have native apps in HTML similar to WebOS to play media and perform other tasks). Until I can upload all my Media to google to have them play it back for me (and feed my tiny ads while doing so) I don't see this winning the hearts of anyone.

I wonder how long it will take for those blockbuster kiosks to turn into infected worm and virus terminals like those digital camera printing kiosks.

Palm needs to add GPU support to Pre pronto!

I dont understand how it looks the same size as my 5870 yet its got 2 GPUS in there. My 5870 puts out quite a bit of heat just using windows Aero effects.

I torrented Windows 7 x64 pro a month ago and did a clean install. Then I downloaded the Student.exe and got myself a valid license key. Cause I originally had a clean install the license did not work, but I ran the exe and "upgraded" and there was no problems and the license took.

Cant windows 7 do that out of the box to DLNA devices? XBOX, PS3, my sweet Onkyo TX-NR906.

I didn't know Oasis - Wonderwall was a cover of a Paul Anka song!

My wonderwall has a glory hole in it.

Until I meet an employee at a store that says a Plasma is better, Thats how I am gonna feel. Personally I think the biggest problem with a store like Best Buy is that their employees don't make commission.

When you work on commission its not about selling the most expensive TV, its about selling the most tvs, and selling tvs that you know will make the customer happy. Building a reputation and knowing the product. Its not about memorizing specs. Its about saying to someone "You know you might want the smaller TV if your only gonna be 8 feet from it, or you may want to to save some money and go with the 720p if its a 24 inch kitchen tv. You loose your commission when a customer is unhappy and returns a product.

I worked at Sears for 6 years on commission. in 1998 when I was 16 I was averaging 17.50 an hour. As they started doing poorly they phased out commission in certain areas, and saw a different crop of employee emerge leaving the experienced people like me to deal with their unhappy customers. When I graduated college I quit. It was 2004 and I was making 9.50 an hour when I left. They have no motivation to be good employees. They only have motivation to sell stupid warranty plans. Its not their fault, its the corporate suits.

I think buying an HDTV at a store is STUPID. Read reviews and do independent research online about it. Then find the TV you want online for the price you want. Even if its on triple closeout at Best Buy I bet you can still find it cheaper online. Most sites always have free shipping too.

When your in the store, they only show one type of source material, all employees are un-educated, and you are left with no relevance on how this thing will look in your home. Plus Online retailers buy TVs in bulk and ussually they stay in one warehouse until it is shipped to you. A best buy tv is probably transfered 4 times before it gets to your door, so its probably been banged around a lot more.

The show looks money on my 58 inch panny full screen and in HD playing from my PS3. Good work guys.
