I think internet555 was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir.

I'd like one :)

Holding some features back for the next model, perhaps. They have to smooth out the 'wow factor' for each model to keep growth steady.

I've been using these for the past year while riding and they've worked well for me: https://www.amazon.com/SBW-Bluetooth-Sweatproof-Wireless-Mic...

Perhaps they needed to fill space after nixing the revamped Apple TV announcement, if recent rumors are to be believed.
Re:Google Fiber is coming to Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville and Raleigh... on Tuesday January 27, 2015 @05:45PM (#8956660)
You went around collecting literal signatures, or got your neighbors to enter addresses on fiber.google.com?

I'm in Nashville and willing to do a fair bit of legwork if it means it'll bump my neighborhood up on the install list.

It must have some age on it, since I'm seeing some Google Wave URLs in there.
Re:Staffer axed by Republican group over retracted copyright reform memo on Thursday December 06, 2012 @01:23PM (#4882979)
I think you're right. Those ideas aren't popular enough today, but the electorate seems to be trending more that way over time. I suspect that GOP leadership is smart enough to know this, but they've decided that this generational shift will take a few more Presidential election cycles until it matures to the point where they can capitalize on it. Until then, keep flogging the current strategy until all the value has been extracted. They've invested way too much not to do that.

Interesting. Do you know what happens to the folks who take all cash vs. one of the other offers?

Re:Apple’s iOS 5 Update Now Available For iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch on Wednesday October 12, 2011 @04:24PM (#3104399)
Anyone know how to do a restore without backing up first? Like a lot of others, the restore is failing for me when it communicates with Apple and every time I retry, it does a backup that lasts about 30 minutes. I'd love to just keep retrying without doing the backup each time.

Thank you! I used cJe98FeBPxbFKZq8 Now that I've created an account, do they give me any invites? I'd like to pay it forward. I don't see any invites in the app.
Re:LNKD IPO opens huge at $83 on Thursday May 19, 2011 @05:17PM (#2565420)
You're correct, according to Henry Blodget at Silicon Alley Insider. The CEO sold some stock last night at $45, which could have been sold for $90 this morning. http://www.businessinsider.com/linked-in-ipo-2011-5-b
