• Well, I picked up an S5 and I love it! Anything I can run on a desktop, I can run wherever I happen to be. I feel netbooks are just too much like crippled laptops, and I need better resolution and power than a smart phone will likely ever provide. It also kept me from needing to buy a separate GPS device, as it has that built in. This is everything PDA's promised 5-10 years ago, but couldn't quite deliver. No longer am I confines to mobile versions of web pages, or viewing only half of the page; at 1024 x 600, pretty much every page I hit looks great.
  
  And for those knocking the stylus; try it for a day. I got the accessory pack when I bought mine, which includes a case with standard PDA-like extendable stylus. I expected that would be what I use, but the guitar pick actually feels more comfortable in my hand for pointing and clicking.

• I still like the look and interface of Zunes way better than iPods... who decided boring was cool? Oh, that's right: Steve Jobs. In reply to: "Crave giveaway of the week: Win a free Battlestar Galactica 16GB Zune"

• deiogn: the reason NCAA09 is selling like crap on the Wii is that it IS crap. The graphics on it are below what everyone else has been offering for over a year, and not even really as good as Madden06 was at the Wii's launch date. It's easily one of the worst ports EA has ever done. There are 3rd party titles that have done quite well on the Wii such as Capcom's Resident Evil 4 (a very GOOD port) and Sega's Mario & Sonic at the Olympics (admittedly a Mario tie in.) the point is these titles both sold more than the most PS3 games have to date and cost probably one third as much to develop. Supporting the Wii isn't about which system is better, it's about business. And in business, if you ignore the big dog, you will eventually become dog food.

• What a Goober
  The Keyboard goes into Hibernation mode, Sherlock, not the computer. Almost all wireless keyboards go into a hibernation mode based on idle time rather than proximity.
