"Much has been made of the screen on the new Droid smartphone from Motorola and Verizon Wireless. The 854 x 480 pixel, 3.7-inch panel is 273% larger than the iPhone’s 320 x 480, 3.5-incher and is setting itself apart as one of Droid’s flagship features."

The 15£ charge is for pay as you go customers only it seems. I read their post in RSS and it was wrong, they have updated the article on the site now. #bastards

So let me get this straight. PAYG customers pay an arm and a leg for their hardware, then have to pay more to unlock it to they can use "their" hardware elsewhere?? All other networks do this for all their phones, but the iPhone, at the sky high price it is, is an exception.
- Roberto Bonini
Yup. Takes the piss to charge them again to use it on another network, when they have paid the same as us, just outright not over 18 months +

Non vi succede mai con Snow Leopard che qualche applicazione non parta? A me succede con qualsiasi tipo di applicazione se la apro attraverso un file che gestisce. Non se faccio il percorso inverso (prima apro l'applicazione e poi vado a cercare il file)
penso sia quello il problema, io ne avevo altri (uno su tutti safari lentissimo) ed altre piccole esasperanti magagne -- alla fine ho reinstallato e buonanotte. mi ricordo anche di questo http://daringfireball.net/2009... che in qualche modo potrebbe essere collegato al tuo problema

o.o ma che cavolata hanno fatto!? Era così comodo aprire il file con l'app che l'aveva generata!

So what's the best way to extend the life of the battery on my MBP? Charge to full, let it drain completely, repeat? I heard keeping it plugged into the wall all the time has negative effects.
best thing is to minimise the power used on your laptop. So, turn down the screen as much as possible, turn off wifi/bluetooth if possible, and turn off cpu-intensive apps. Many people don't realise this, but having a browser open with 10+ tabs and especially if using flash, are running the equivalent of a game on their computer. So try to stick to a max. of a few apps at a time and no more than 2-3 tabs in your browser. My Macbook (not pro) runs an average of 4+ hours when I do all of this.

you normally have to callibrate your battery only once every few months, no more. The more you charge & recharge, the more you kill your battery as it has a limited amount of cycles it can do that. Also, having a second battery and using them on alternate weeks helps a LOT (doesn't work with the new Macbooks of course…)
- Vincent van Wylick
Vincent has said everything I would've said! I do the complete discharge thing once a month, though, but I guess it's down to how often you part-use part-charge it, which, for me, is everyday.

~ to note now that it's fall & winter approaches, cold saps battery life quickly so don't leave it out in the car or exposed to the cold because you will not get the same performance & this is exacerbated by the colder the temperature is. (goes with cell phones, iPod's & really almost any electronic device)

A GSM/UMTS/CDMA worldphone is an easy product for Apple to green light, given the projected sales volume.

So are you guys for or against censorship from Apple? I can't justify *not* making a book available to people. And seriously "swach sticker?"
- Dustin Sallings
MVB nails it. They allow this app, yet another book app with the word iPhone in it is not allowed. A Google Voice app is not allowed. These are the kind of things that make me think Apple is messed up.
- Maxamad (Amazigh)
Maxamad, I totally agree an inconsistent censorship policy is bad. Any censorship policy is bad. Banning books -- even those nobody agrees with is bad. That's the irony here: http://wiki.answers.com/Q...
- Dustin Sallings
NO way! can we boycott that app?! damn Apples is messed up!!
- Susan Beebe
Susanbeebe, absolutely! Don't buy it, don't publicize it (this thread probably sold more copies than would've otherwise been sold). Don't make it sound like super-powerful forbidden knowledge that will give someone power that everyone else should fear because the reader will magically transform into the next Hitler and kill us all. Most importantly, let's not encourage organizations to hide information from us that some of us disagree with.
