- Too bad. It seems like you couldn't get any additional answers, in person, to what I got on their product release webcast.
- Hach, wir mögen Steve Jobs, mögen wir? Er sieht immer jünger aus... und was macht Apple, wenn er billiardenschwer retired? o.O
- I think xbox is better than ps. :)
- Who's the idiot that say these things do not matter, these things matter a lot, it's just the perspective that makes the difference! I am sure you agree!
- I'm not a big fan of either. I much rather make a Sims 2 avatar because I can completely customize it. The Xbox avatars are too plain. The PS3 Home avatars are hilarious when I am finished...

compared with the possibility of realtime-tracking by the government.
Here in the US, AT&T has opened up its pipes to the government for a
long time. How easy do you think it'll be for them to track the
movements of any iPhone owner, should they choose to do so, now that
the GPS chip is in there? It would be a trivial switch in terms of
effort.
But really, this applies to just about any phone with a GPS chip out
there, not just the iPhone. The funny thing is, if the government had
actually tried to get people to carry GPS devices so they could be
tracked, they'd have never succeeded. But people have readily adopted
them and have opened themselves to that possibility simply because
they got some benefits out of it as well. Interesting how that worked,
no?
