Andy: Archos 5 = iPod touch running Android, 3x5 sized screen, Bluetooth, USB, HDMI. GPS. http://www.archos.com/product... - Leo Laporte
Interesting device - Matt Devost
It is capacitive touch? - Ryan
Did they recently migrate this device to Android? Found it on Amazon, but it looks like it was released a year ago. - Matt Devost
I don't see this taking off. I stil have a Nokia N810 with buil-in AND external keyboards. Don't use it. Don't see what makes the Archos better. - The Griff
Leo's skeptical on the whole iPad idea? Et tu, Leo? - Christopher Harley
Any comment on Intuit's purchase of Mint? May be more for N@N. http://www.mint.com/press... - The Griff
I'm ready for material like that being developed by Enhanced Editions http://www.enhanced-editions.com/ overtaking anything on the Kindle. The iPad will be a perfect device for this media. - Christopher Harley
Wifi sync is nice on Zune - Andrew Smith
I'm also seriously thinking of getting one if they are ever in the UK - Roberto Bonini
Zune HD seen from the Apple perspective http://bit.ly/Y2Ekc (via AppleInsider) - Still some valid points. - Ron R.
Ah Apple Tv time. - Roberto Bonini
More codec on the Apple Tv would amke it much better to use. Currently I have to convert Everything. - Roberto Bonini
Don't forget that Apple has a $25 Billion war chest. - Roberto Bonini
Sony - Andrew Smith
I would wait until Tech Crunch 50 were over and choose one of the winners or even an applicant. - shelter watch
They could pay for an engineer who could get a camera into the Touch - bobrudge
Apple Tv lacks DVR and OTA functionality. Buy someone why already does that. Like SageTv. - Roberto Bonini
MMS has always worked on Rogers in Canada. Don't really use it though. - Andrew Smith
Many more people use MMS than use email because the vast majority of phones do not have email facilities - bobrudge
Bill Bryson is wonderful. Has everyone read his A Short History of Nearly Everything? - bobrudge
which model Hypermac did Alex buy - Matt Devost
http://www.hyperdrive.com/HyperMa... Should be the model Alex got - Ryan
Evidently, the gay/lesbian discrimination rumor on Emirates might be true: Emirates dodge anti-discrimination laws December 16th, 2008 LGBT flyers in San Francisco are being urged to boycott Emirates Airlines, which has just launched a nonstop service between Dubai and San Francisco.

Thanks. Have looked at them before, but liked the form factor of the one he was holding - Matt Devost
The attitude of Andy's - that his protest will make no difference - is real moral cowardice. If we all thought that we'd never change anything. - bobrudge
This is unfortunate about that airline as well: Emirates bans openly gay male flight attendants from its fleet, and women must be below a certain weight and take compulsory beauty and etiquette training. If an unmarried woman becomes pregnant, she is fired. - shelter watch
There's not much you can do. You are kind of stuck, but at least you'll know and can use that information to enlighten others. - shelter watch
I finally have faster speed with my parabolic antenna and EVDO and no Al!! - shelter watch
the ipod touch can do almost as much as a basic pc computer? no wait I think more now - Kyle Case
Leo has a feed? What is going on LOL - Kyle Case
