Geeks/nerds and some other people on the internet like to add -ey to the end of a word to signify that the subject bears resemblance or is somehow simmillar to that word. Only used where -ey is not a propper suffix to the word, or as a double. Also used by retards who don't realize that they are using slang. (They think that the -ey is supposed to be there)

Finally getting to break into Icecrown Citadel. The fights look fun, and I can't wait until we get to face the Lich King himself!
For 3.3, I am looking forward most to the random dungeon queuing system, which will greatly increase the ease at which you can find 4 other randoms who are just as masochistic as myself to pug heroics. As a die hard Warrior, I am also eagerly awaiting the "Massive" changes being made to warrior . Oh the joys of the new quest tracking/upgraded Blizz map I like not having to be addon dependant for menial tasks(WTB Sizable Zone Map). Ultimately tho, I am just looking forward to new content. Ulduar was alot of fun to go through, ToGC wasnt inventive enough, and rather dull. ICC will be a breath of fresh air.

Finally getting to break into Icecrown Citadel. The fights look fun, and I can't wait until we get to face the Lich King himself!
For cataclysm: I'm Mostly looking forward to experiencing the very beginning of a new expansion, powerleveling and all that.
I played in bc, but stopped and didnt start until wotlk was already out. So this is my nr 1 :>
Guild talents and the mass summon you can specc into, nuff said.
fmaybe i can find groups for heroics for my warrior and bring him out of retirement.
yay for xserver grouping and new stuff too see!
You take a mortal man, and put him in control, watch him become a god, and peoples heads roll.
I'm looking forward to seeing the end of the Lich King. The whole purpose of this expansion is finally being realized with this patch. I'm also curious to see what becomes of Arthas. He seems like such a vital character to the lore of Azeroth and I while I know it will be an epic battle to defeat him, I hope it isn't the end for him. The redeemed always seem to have a greater part to play in the grand scheme of things.
Another thing I'm excited to see is the return to fresh content on the main continents of Azeroth in the upcoming expansion Cataclysm. It marks a change in the way Blizzard develops this game. Up until now each expansion/ patch has consisted of unexplored areas now opened up. And while Wotlk had some precursor to allowing players to see the fruit of their labor like the King returning to Stormwind it will be nice to see it on a larger scale. Gnomes returning to Gnomeregan, the balance of power shifting in different zones due to past player activity.
While Blizzard has always excelled at making content that immersed the player in the world, the player never really had any affect on that world. Again this was seen on a smaller scale with content phasing with the quest chains in Ice Crown and it was good to see how the Horde and Alliance had to break into the Zone with the help of the Knights of the Ebon Blade. But l would like to see this more between the different player factions like with the Wintergrasp battles where success actually mattered.
I'm interested to see if this is implemented more in Cataclysm. Its all very new and exciting and I feel it creates greater immersion into the world. Who knows, entire questing hubs could be opened up by pvp battle.

I'm looking forward to the new LFG interface. I joined the PTR and it's awesome! The ability to teleport to the instance and teleport out of the instance (to pickup more mats or repair) is amazing.
I'm actually looking more forward to Cata than 3.3. As hunter I can't wait to get rid of this damn int... in intellect, right. 3.3 Tmrw... can't even say I'm slightly interested
Titanium Links of Lore - Items - Sigrie
Best thing about new patch, should have been a helm though.
Titanium locks of lore
What I am looking forward to the most about the patch is the changes that blizz is making to the LFG/LFR. I have had a few friends playing on the ptr and it seems to be a very interesting idea that should help out a lot. It should cut way down on the trade spams of looking for that tank or healer when your all ready to go. Granted the new instance/raid is going to be great and I am looking forward to it and doing some guild progression through there with my toons, but I truly think the thing I am excited about is the changes to "enhance and polish" the game experience allowing it to be less frustrating if your not lucky enough to be part of a major raiding guild or if you accually have a life outside of wow.
The thing that I am most thankful for with the new 3.3 patch coming out is the fact that it is now easier to get into PuG raid groups with the cross realm matchmaker system. IMO, it allows those who are new to raiding, or not apart of large raiding guilds, or whatever, to find raids to get into so that they can get better gear. I know that this was a problem with me when I first hit lvl 80!
I think the biggest thing I am excited for in 3.3 is setting foot in the Lich King's house. I played lots of Warcraft 3 and so this is gonna almost be personal for me whenever I manage to get a chance at killing him. =D
Cataclysm: Im lookin forward to More HPs for all players! Which means longer and tougher battles against each other making things more intense during the Waaaaaagh!! (warhammer 40k reference). I wana put my warrior's Axe in peoples faces at lvl 85!
im definatly most exited about killing arthas and seeing what happens in the fight against him, lore and so on =). and ofc getting the first shadowmourne to our guilds dps =D.
Never Fear When Baronen Is Near
For 3.3 The biggest thing I am looking forward to is the Quel'Delar questline. I really love the Lore rich quests and I have been waiting to get the sister blade to my Quel"Serrar for a while now.
I think the thing I am most excited about the release of 3.3 is getting to watch new Tank Spot videos. It is strangely relaxing to watch a video that tells you strategies about how to kill a boss that takes 10-25 people to best. I think its the music you use. Any way, keep up the good work, and Lok'tar Ogar all.
I'm most looking forward to shadow priests getting something they have been requesting a long time - dots scaling with haste!
About 3.3 I'm mostly excited about the Quel'Delar quests and of course the ICC raid
Cataclysm, hmm, Possibly the new Azeroth or laughing at all the holy cows xD
I'm looking forward to learning new content with my new guild and exploring ICC...the cross realm random dungeon finder sounds great as well.
Last edited by Penlowe; 12-17-2009 at 12:18 PM.
Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?!?
I am looking forward to the lore, the raid rep, and of course Shadowmourne. For Cataclysm i would say the guild achievements and the idea of player achievements being account wide. Last but not least more Tankspot strat videos.

Well I think it is already here in another time zone in the Pacific unless we are vain enough to think the Mayans were referring to est. Where the ruins of the Mayans are the time zone is 1 hour behind est so if any time zone counts that seems the most likely.
Give or take a few minutes because the time zone lines are approximates. And again maybe the day starts for the Mayans when the sun rises rather than 12 midnight so there are a lot of factors to consider. All and all we will know for sure by the 23rd.
they were DEFINITELY talking about est. why would they talk about anything else?

They're Back
I hope you thoroughly enjoyed your holiday season and were able to spend special times with your family and close friends. I also hope your time with your AU college student(s) was meaningful ... whether or not it was plentiful. I actually didn't get to see our son, Levi, very much over his AU break ... or at least as much as I would have liked ... but the time I did spend with him was wonderful.
The students have all been back for a week now, and it's great to have everyone back on campus. It's pretty quiet around here when they're gone. One fun weekend coming up (when it's definitely not quiet around here) is Lil' Sibs Weekend in February for any younger siblings, cousins, etc. of our AU students. In the next section of this newsletter, Drew Beechler, who is a junior marketing major working in our Alumni Office, provides all the needed info about this special weekend on our campus. Check it out.
I also want to make sure you are aware of the phenomenal services available to your student through our security services team. During this time of year, with the longer and colder nights, many of our students take advantage of our on-campus evening shuttle bus. The bus runs a continuous loop Sunday through Thursday evenings from 5:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. There are flyers all around campus with the route and listed stops, as well as on the AU website under the Police/Security Services tab, which is under the Student Links tab.
In addition to the shuttle service, female students walking by themselves can request a security escort any time by dialing # 3333 (they should program # 765-641-3333 into their cell phones). For a great overview of everything our Security Services team offers to keep our campus safe, check out this quick video here and know that the safety and well-being of your child is absolutely the top priority here at Anderson University.
I hope your year is off to a great start!
Blessings to all parents who love their children.

From a historical adobe store in Santa Fe, New Mexico,
BACK AT THE RANCH, established in 1990, has breathed new life into the ultimate symbol ofAmericana: the handmade cowboy boot. Using bold colors, the finest exotic leathers and a fresh take on traditional design, the company creates one-of-a-kind boots that have proven a hit with music stars, A-list actors, politicians, and style-conscious people from around the globe.
As one of the world's last remaining makers of handcrafted cowboy boots, BACK AT THE RANCH also offers customers the chance to personalize its distinctive luxury products with their own designs,
"Before I launched my store in 1990, I realized that, aesthetically, the cowboy boot industry was stuck in the 1950s," says owner Wendy Henry. "It desperately needed fashion-forward ideas about colors and designs to complement its renowned craftsmanship, so I set about making some of the best handmade cowboy boots ever produced."
Drawing on her experiences in New York's fashion industry, she has added a feminine touch to this male-dominated domain. By combining durable quality with style, Wendy creates cowboy boots that are a true expression of their owner's individuality— whether customers choose one of the 700 handmade pairs stocked at BACK ATTHE RANCH's charming store, or a bespoke pair of boots with their own distinct design or color scheme.
...probably one of the best boot stores in the country...

By EDDIE PELLS
AP National Writer
(AP) - Her image could hardly have been better: Athletic. A knockout. All-American. So accomplished and so wholesome that Disneyland hired her for speaking engagements, the Big Ten named an award after her and the Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association made her their pitchwoman.
Yet something troubled Suzy Favor Hamilton. The former track star out of Wisconsin, whose speed and talent took her to seven national championships and three Olympics, ultimately dealt with her demons by stealing away to live a life as a highly paid prostitute.
An "escape," she called it, that was really a way of masking an American Dream coming unhinged _ a real-life tragedy that undercut the myth that success, wealth and fame is a surefire path to happiness.
"I do not expect people to understand," Favor Hamilton said in a frenzied burst of tweets after details about her secret life became public Thursday in a report on The Smoking Gun website. "But the reasons for doing this made sense to me at the time and were very much related to depression."
Stanley Teitelbaum, a psychologist who wrote the book "Athletes Who Indulge Their Dark Side," said it's not so difficult to understand. After retiring, and spending most of her life trying to live up to a certain ideal and getting her highs from the adrenaline rush of elite, competitive sports, day-to-day life in the civilian world can seem boring.
"You've got to think of an emotional outlet, maybe in her case, a nonconventional outlet, a way of getting high by somehow being a bad girl in contrast to her image of an upstanding, Olympic athlete," Teitelbaum said.
In an interview earlier this year with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Favor Hamilton said she dealt with anxiety, an eating disorder and struggled with postpartum depression after the birth of her daughter, Kylie, now 7. But, she told the newspaper, "I feel better than I've ever felt."
At the time of the interview, it turned out, she was doubling as "Kelly Lundy," a $600-an-hour call girl for an escort service based in Las Vegas.
Apparently, it wasn't for the money. In the Journal Sentinel profile, Favor Hamilton said she gave upward of 60 motivational speeches each year and ran a successful realty firm, in addition to doing appearances for Disney and the Rock `n' Roll Marathon series. The Smoking Gun reported that a check through public records showed she lived in a $600,000 house in the Madison suburb of Shorewood Hills and that neither she nor her husband, Mark, had any outward signs of financial difficulties.
Some homes in Shorewood Hills back onto university property.
On Friday, there was no answer at the front door of her house _ a sizeable, split-level home at the end of a cul de sac where a hurdle emblazoned with the word "Wisconsin" sits, snow covered, alongside the driveway.
A neighbor, Bob Lynch, who used to coach boxing at Wisconsin, said he used to see Favor Hamilton, her husband and daughter walking around the neighborhood and "they looked like a solid, little family."
"She's really successful," Lynch said. "Madison's a small town that way. If you were a sports hero at the university, you could do well in business."
Neither Favor Hamilton nor her husband, Mark Hamilton, was at their real estate office Friday, which was closing for the Christmas holiday.
In the wake of the news, Disney canceled an upcoming appearance by Favor Hamilton, the Orange County Register reported. The Big Ten conference, which hands out the Suzy Favor Athlete of the Year Award to honor an athlete who won 23 conference and nine NCAA titles, had no comment Friday. A spokesman for the UW athletic department also declined comment.
A walk around the campus in Madison paints a compelling picture of the revered status she still holds at Wisconsin.
Inside the Kohl Center, where the Wisconsin basketball team plays, Favor Hamilton is remembered on a long wall near the entrance commemorating "great moments in athletics history," which also includes Heisman winner Ron Dayne and other UW greats.
In another area, where the trophy awarded to her as the 1989-1990 Collegiate Woman of the Year is on display, a plaque beneath it reads, "There's only one Suzy." Favor Hamilton is also singled out on the university's website describing the displays, describing her as "incomparable."
But when Favor Hamilton was in school, according to two people who knew her then, she was generally regarded as shy and unassuming. Despite that, she had ways of grabbing attention that now have an odd resonance. She was sporadically injured and unable to practice on the track, so to get her cardio work in, she would swim laps in the pool while the men's team was practicing. While one-piece suits were the norm for women training in an athletic environment, Favor Hamilton would peel off into a head-turning, two-piece bikini.

Post subject: Gphoto Serial port help
Hi, I am trying to get a Kodak DC3200 camera to run using gphoto in blag linux. The camera is in the list but will not let me select serial port instead of usb port. Does anyone know how to get serial port to show up in the list?
Posted: Mon Apr 05, 2004 9:29 am
Post subject:
I'm not sure how to do it in gtkam, but I do something similar with gphoto2. I just run:
gphoto2 --camera "Kodak DC3200" --get-all-files --port /dev/ttyS0
I'll see what the scoop is on gtkam.
Posted: Mon Apr 05, 2004 9:42 am
Post subject:
Oh yeah. You may also need permissions to access your serial devices. Sorry. In a terminal run:
su [enter root pw]
chmod o+rw /dev/ttyS0
chmod o+rw /dev/ttyS1
/dev/ttyS0 = com1 in windoz
/dev/ttyS1 = com2 in windoz
This will allow any user to have access to the serial ports.

Ok. Once I set the permissions of the serial device so any user could read/write to it (via chmod below), I was able to run gtkam/gphoto using the serial device no problem. This is the "Digital Camera Tool" in the menu under graphics, for those of you watching. :)
To recap, this is what I did:
Menu->System Tools->Terminal
In the terminal run:
su [which prompts you for the root password]
chmod og+rw /dev/ttyS0
chmod og+rw /dev/ttyS1
Then I ran gtkam:
Menu->Graphics->Digital Camera Tool
In gtkam (Digital Camera Tool), I went to:
Camera->Add Camera
I selected my camera from the list (first), then I selected serial:
I was then able to download pictures fine. You only need to do the chmod once, not each time you want to download pictures.

I have opened a bug report with RedHat/Fedora about this issue. It is a relatively easy fix on their end. I'm surprised it's there, actually. I was able to confirm the bug via IRC with a RedHat employee. So hopefully it will be fixed in Fedora Core 2.
Thanks for your report! This will get things fixed for thousands of users. :)

On February 22, OMEGA Championship Wrestling is doing a live event in Smithfield, North Carolina. Matt Hardy and Shane Helms will be headlining the event as a tag team. Gunner, Christian York and Reby Sky have all been announced for the show as well.
There will be a Lethal Lockdown match at TNA Lockdown 2014 this year. Team Dixie will consists of Ethan Carter, Bobby Roode, James Storm and Rockstar Spud. They will face Team MVP, which will include MVP, Gunner, Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards.
After weeks of teasing the move, the James Storm heel turn has finally happened. Impact Wrestling is being taped right now, and the long time TNA star turned on Gunner as he was challenging Brutus Magnus for the world heavyweight championship.
Another person that TNA wants to push to the main event scene soon is Gunner. Many backstage feel that he can be elevated enough to be viewed as a worthy challenger for Brutus Magnus and the world title. The success of his story line with James Storm should help dictate that.
"It's hard to compare Gunner to either one of those guys just because I was in a tag team with those guys a much longer time. Me and Chris were basically unknowns coming up through the ranks trying to make a name for ourselves and as far as me and Bobby we were already established and we just kind of clicked together. It took us 6-8 months together to finally click but we did and we made a good run out of it. With me and Gunner, it's one of those things that I don't think we've been a tag team long enough to start describing us against my former partners."
There are talks that TNA could be looking to split Gunner away from James Storm to see if he can become a star as a singles wrestler.
TNA star Gunner served in the United States military during the Iraq War.

WASHINGTON - It's that time of year again - time to get out and take a summer trip.
While vacations are great, they can be expensive. When your family gets to the airport, the last thing you want is to face even more fees for your luggage.
Dodging bag fees starts with picking the right airline. For example, Southwest Airlines lets each passenger bring two bags on free.
MoneyTalks News also suggests getting an airline credit card, or paying attention to frequent flyer programs. Some airlines will honor frequent flier benefits from one of their partners.
Surprisingly, another way to save money might be to upgrade to first class. The higher price of the ticket might be worth it since it often means no baggage fees.
Other tips include, making the most of your carry-on bags since they're free on major carriers. Also, think about wearing some extra layers or pockets if you're really pushing the baggage limit.
Be sure and weigh your bags before you go to be sure they're under the 50-pound cap.
And factor your packing plans into the price before you even buy tickets, to make sure you're really going for the best deal.

About Alzheimer's Association TrialMatch®
Welcome to Alzheimer's Association TrialMatch®, a free, easy-to-use clinical studies matching service that connects individuals with Alzheimer's, caregivers, healthy volunteers and physicians with current studies. Our continuously updated database of 130+ Alzheimer's clinical trials includes both pharmacological (drug) and non-pharmacological (non-drug) studies being conducted at nearly 500 trial sites across the country.
Through clinical trials, researchers test new ways to detect, treat and prevent Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Recruiting and retaining clinical trial participants is now the greatest obstacle, other than funding, to developing the next generation of Alzheimer's treatments.
We need your help. Without participation, finding a cure is virtually impossible.
People with Alzheimer's, caregivers and healthy volunteers are all needed today to participate in Alzheimer's and dementia research.
When you join a clinical trial, you have an opportunity to participate in vital research that could change the course of this disease and improve the lives of all those it affects. Your participation in clinical trials gives us optimism for today and promise for the future. Use the TrialMatch service above to find a clinical trial now.
Information to share with your family
If you are thinking about joining a clinical trial, talk with your family. Share a TrialMatch brochure with them. It explains how to use the service and the types of Alzheimer's-related clinical trials being conducted across the country.

BlackBerry boss renews disdain for Steve Jobs
Research in Motion co-CEO Jim Balsillie has renewed his attack on the Jobsian way, once again pitching the upcoming BlackBerry PlayBook tablet as a much-needed alternative to the Apple iPad. This morning at the Web 2.0 Summit in downtown San Francisco, Basillie was asked what he would say to Steve Jobs if the Apple CEO were in …
Sounds like Jim is peeved because nobody is writing decent apps for his platform.
If there's one thing the masses (ie. non-geeks) want it is a pretty simple life. To pick up a device and use it. They don't want their phone to be radically different to their tablet, so why do Google, RIM and Microsoft not see that?
Linux netbooks were returned by many people confused or disappointed by them, why is a tablet with ChromeOS or the RIM QNX based system going to be any different?
At least with the iPad you know you're getting the OS the iPhone and iPod uses.
@Giles Jones
You are right in that most people (geeks and non-geeks alike) just want to be able to pick up a device and use it -- but it is pretty far reaching to say that they don't want their phone to be radically different than their tablet.
That's like saying that they don't want their microwave oven to be different than their phone.
I think that I'm like most people that if I'm using a portable computer that I want it to be a computer -- not a phone with all of its inherent limitations.. If I want a phone, I pick up the phone, not a tablet.
@Donn Bly
Um...I want my tablet to be a Really Big Phone. Seriously; my phone (HTC Desire) can do just about everything I want. My only gripes are the small screen and the low resolution. Make me an 10" HTC Desire at 1366x768 and I'm quite happy.
"Portable computer?" The RDP client on my Desire handles that function beautifully. For everything else there's an app for that.
Who needs (or wants) to carry a full-fat computing device around with them? Get a VM and a network connection man! Leave that battery-draining baggage at home.

"Who needs (or wants) to carry a full-fat computing device around with them? Get a VM and a network connection man! Leave that battery-draining baggage at home." .... thecakeis(not)alie Posted Tuesday 16th November 2010 23:55 GMT
Not everyone, and probably definitely very few, have the required Brain Power and Central Dynamic Graphic Processor Unit Programming skills to Bust that Bucking Bronco/Driver that HyperManic Mindset and Fluid Controlling App/Global Currency Regulator, thecakeis(not)alie.
And those that do never lie and are a great lay too........ which of course then makes them Dangerously Attractive and Disarming and Beautifully Addictive and Powerful. And more than just Godlike in Live Operational Virtual Environments/Communicating Communications Fields, for how else would one describe the Heavenly Sees and Safe Havens Revealed.
Pricing Problems
No if they can only make a 10" tablet that cost the same as an iPad. right now 7" Android tablets with 55% less screen space cost as much as an iPad. A 10" will surely cost more.
Wow you really don't get it. Smartphones, tablets and computers share a lot in common. They have an OS, software updates, applications and are use as communication tools. A microwave is something completely different and shares none of these common computing attributes.
Portable computers
I take mine round to a client's for a day's hard graft. I wouldn't want to do that on a phone and I wouldn't want to use any of their kit.
Don't make me laugh, what planet are you from, what bridge did you come ourt from under? You're actually suggsting a phone/tablet using 3/4G to remote onto a VM to actually use as you would laptop!?!
With the UKs paltry excuse for a broadband infrastructure I sometimes struggle to RDP to machine in the office a few miles across town, let alone doing it down the end of a mobile connection on the fly...that's the beauty of having a laptop!
And for the money you're spending on the iPad you could have a damn good laptop, and don't give me the "too big and cumbersome angle" because there's not really much difference in carrying one or other apart from the delusion that the £400 couldn't have better spent!
Don't bring the video to the device as page scrapes. Through that path lies madness. Either compress video and use graphic hardware on the endpoint to decode or only do video using local files on the endpoint. Remember that you can decode video cheaply; specialised hardware doesn't cost you a lot of power.
I think this is a possibility for a couple of reasons. First, there are plenty of companies out there who are extending the RDP protocol in ways that allow the endpoint to make use of it's graphics hardware for video decode. Second, people have gotten used to "ipods." They understand the concept of loading the media they want to view local to their device.
What I am saying is outside of my media consumption, I can get everything done from a remote session. I have entire workplaces full of non-technically oriented people who are perfectly familiar with how it works; why can't this be extended to the consumer level? Hell….with certain tweaks, I'd argue it is exactly the innovation Microsoft requires if they want to survive. They have to become the fat operating system in the cloud that everyone relies upon, even if they are using a competitor's thin device.
Thusly; screw fat clients. Don't need 'em. An iPad-alike (that's a little less restrictive) will do me just fine.
I've spent a month working from iPad exactly as you suggest. I do work from my desire in exactly that fashion on a fairly regular basis. As to "too cumbersome," why yes...laptops are. Even modern windows tablets are just too bulky and heavy. That's not the killer though. The killer is battery life. Full-fat operating systems just don't have the battery life necessary for me to get a day's work in.
Remember, you can type just fine on an iPad. Which means no need for a keyboard. There doesn't have to be a habitrail of copper to cool some ridiculously over-the-top x86 chip. You don't have all the "baggage" of trying to be the everycomputer. It's just a media consumption device capable of RDP. I'm a sysadmin, and a programmer. I'm a user and a consumer. Shockingly…the form factor works brilliantly for me.
What doesn't work for me is the locked down nature of the iPad; specifically the inability to use removable storage. I need the ability to carry a few SD cards with my movies/tv shows/songs/whatever. I have laptops. Nice ones too. Since getting my Desire I almost never use them. If I had an iPad-alike I can pretty much guarantee they would gather dust.
I just don't understand what average tasks require you to have a full fat system at your fingertips? Sure, there are some heavy lifting tasks I would prefer to do at a real workstation: photo/video editing. (Proper colour calibration requires a real monitor and a real video card.) CAD. Video gaming. Those are all activities I would do from one place though; not on the go. I would have to specifically set time aside to do those things, which means finding a desk and parking it.
When it comes to 90% of what I use a computer for…I don't want to be sitting down at a desk and staring intently at a light screen. I don't need to be tethered to write a comment on El Reg. I don't need be tethered to read/write e-mail, consume media, check facts online or enter inventory items into my corporate point of sales system. I don't need to be sitting down to use instant messenger, Facebook or check on my webcomics.
What 10 years ago I would have done on a low-power desktop or five years ago on a notebook I now find myself doing on my phone. True "workstation" tasks still require a beefy "workstation." The difference is that "workstation-class computing" lives inside my Alienware laptop and sits unused in the corner until I actually come up with a task that requires it. All my real work is done in my personal VM and delivered over RDP.
With a little bit of effort, a lot of that "workstation computing" can even be moved into a VM, providing even fewer reasons to bust out the power-hog.
Let me be clear: we aren't yet at the point that regular folks will be ditching their desktops/laptops for iPad-alikes. We are however seeing the start of it. It's no different than landlines and cell phones. When cell phones first came out people would have both a land line and a cell phone. Slowly be surely that eroded to be a minority; now many people (and most youngsters) have only a cell phone.
Desktops/full-fat laptops will fade away in the same manner.
The question I leave with you is: which companies will be the ones capable of foreseeing this and taking advantage and which companies will cling to the past?
Tired of the web/cloud
Sorry but having done a lot of both, doing "web" programming does not strike me as any easier or better than native programming.
What is with the push to have web "programs" pretending to be native apps?
I can't help but think it's because a lot of younger computer hobbyists have experience cobbling together basic web pages and don't want to learn anything more sophisticated. And they have convinced the suits that web programming is newer and better than native.
As an end user
I find that in many cases, the App route gives a far better result than the Web route.
For example. Earlier today i was on Booking.com on my mac looking for a hotel in Amsterdam. Unfortunately, the Lovely Ivana was involved in a car accident and I had to abandon my search to go rescue her and take her to the doctor. While waiting at the doctors I went onto my iPhone and continued my search. The search itself wasn't difficult but trying to follow up with dates and prices and locations proved to be a rather tedious and ultimately pointless task.
I then noticeed that Booking.com had noted that I was using an iPhone and offered me their App.
What a difference. Everything that was so difficult and fiddly was a breeze.
This has been the same where I have used other specific apps instead of the web route (the eBay apps are good examples).
Others obviously may not agree.
Finally - what's a good hotel in Amsterdam? - I've never stayed there before, just visited from other places.
I don't know why RIM is pushing this web app approach when no company has found success with this approach in the mobile devices. Palm webOS failed (we-based apps), iOS: native apps rule, and Andriod: native apps rule.
So why take a failed approached when you already have a solid Java API to work with.
Another thing people don't realize is much easieir to monetize native apps rather than web apps.
Whats with the push?
The answer is simple... control and money. The hype to herd everyone to web-based applications is there because when everyone depends on the web (at the moment we do not) then the gravy train is once more leaving the station.
We are fast coming full circle. In days of yore dumb-terminals gave you access to mini or mainframe computers. Replace Mainframe and Mini with Internet and PCs (no matter the O/S) and replace dumb terminals with more sophisticated thin-client devices (smart phones and tablets (again no matter the O/S) and were back in old model of computing from the mid-to-late 1970's. Much prettier, much more capable, much more affordable, and a whole lot more fun, but the same business model.
The web is a great tool, I use it all the time, but I make sure I do not rely on it. If the Internet went dead tomorrow (not gonna happen) my business operations would only suffer because the Windows PCs I service would not fill up quite as quickly with Trojans and other assorted malware as they do now.
If the internet went dead tomorrow, half the devices out there would become moot, and who the hell would bother typing emails that couldn't be delivered?
I rather fancy many of us would move back to paper, and you would be out of a job. Then, rather than websites having control over content and the revenue stream ... magazines, periodicals and other media would have control over the content and the revenue stream.
Are you pretending to not understand?
It's not that writing a web app is so much easier then writing an iPhone apps. It is that:
(1) most companies already have web apps
(2) they are based on standard technologies
(3) they run on every device out there
How could you miss these points?
I can understand that Apple would prefer that everything be re-written as an iOS app that only runs on their products, with their approval, and with them taking a nice cut. What I can't understand is that you could argue that that is better.
Hotel in Amsterdam
I rather like this one, although it isn't that cheap. NH Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky - http://www.nh-hotels.com/nh/en/hotels/the-netherlands/amsterdam/nh-grand-hotel-krasnapolsky.html
If I had to guess
The only reason cloud computing is being touted as The Next Big Thing is to justify these stupidly massive, ever expanding datacentres that everyone's building. Cloudc omputing is a means to prop up the server market thus counterbalancing widespread uptake of virtualisation and reduced spending as a result of the downturn.
Native apps on a fat client are best, it's easier to replace the client than it is your web connection, fact!
Hotel In Amsterdam
Hotel Jimmy, 15 Martelaarsgracht.
It's cheap. I stayed there ONCE! But you get what you pay for. Close to the Centraal station. Though I understand that there is an Ibis at the station as well.
Paris, to keep you warm at night.
@Ivan Headache
So Booking.com have a website that's f*** all use on mobile devices (not clever, given that travellers are their target customers) and instead of fixing this so everyone can use it they have taken a deep swig of the Kool-aid and built an iPhone app?
They deeply deserve to go bust.......
Here's a hint for anyone seriously clueless to whom mobile trade is critical: Build one, good, mobile-friendly web page and your entire client base will be satisfied. Take the "app" route and that'll be one for iOS, one for Symbian, one for Android, one for BB (etc. ad nauseum) to avoid sending significant chunks of your potential client base elsewhere.
Now. Which of those approaches makes sound business sense?
Depends on what you mean by 'good'
I used to stay at The American - clean, reasonably priced, good bar and a GREAT location for seeing the charms of the city. Have a great time.
Good plan, but with one small flaw...
You *don't* make one web app for all devices, because in the mobile world everyone's device has differing levels of memory, screen size, speed, memory, etc., etc.
Try visiting Google's mobile site with different devices to see how the layout and functionality changes for each device and how crap it looks on large-screen devices because it needs to also work on small screen devices; it really isn't as straightforward as you think.
Are you a manager?
Have you heard of CSS? Have you heard of media queries? Have you heard of liquid, elastic and fluid layouts?
No. It's not straightforward. It's much fucker harder than all the "web's not real dev" twats here seem to understand. But would an easy job make for a fun life? I thought geeks liked an intellectual challenge.
Nope, YOU don't understand
I'm not saying the World Wide Web should be rewritten as a collection of iPhone apps. I'm saying that there's a place for web pages/sites/services and there's a place for native apps. Making a platform that only runs one or the other will lead to failure. RIM thinks it's sooooooooo great that apps for their platform are written using HTML/CSS/Javascript. Super. Ask Apple how their "web API" for the iPhone is doing.
What the world needs now...
...is a grown up competitor to the iPad, and Blackberry might be the ones to deliver it.
I've seen the odd early adopter try to use the iPad to supplement their locked-and-bolted down work laptops, and come up against highly restrictive IT policies hard. Blackberry seem to be one of the few companies that understand that to get widespread adoption in the workplace (where technology is viewed with suspicion rather than gleeful understanding) you need to visibly add value, not just 10,000 ways to waste your employees time.
I for one, etc.
Is a leapfrogger...
RIM and others are scurrying around in catch-up mode. If they want to do something cool, then jumping forward of where iPad etc is is the way to go.
Looking forward to this
This looks like a really nice piece of kit. Certainly the first of this type of device that I'd actively consider buying. As long as I don't miss out on features by not having a BES account.
QNX always was a very nicely put together OS - I'm glad it's finally breaking out of the worthy but dull world of embedded systems.
Vtech anyone?
Do the iDevices remind anyone of the VTech computers for kids? Oh, and I thought the JesusPlatform (the jPlatform if you will) killed Flash what with it being a CPU/memory hog with poor performance and all? Guess not and now we have documented proof. Well, truth be told, we've had it since Froyo but I thought I'd humor the fanbois.
I'm just waiting for El Reg to write an article titled something along the lines of "Fanbois howl as true value of the jPlatform is revealed" or "World laughs at fanboi devs fannying about with yet another pointless app".
Full-on strawman mode
Um, where exactly does Apple say that apps on the iPhone "need to go through some kind of SDK"?
I have a bunch of web apps on my iPhone, written with the exact same technologies that old Jimbo is waving around like he invented them.
Actually, that raises a point. If Apple hadn't developed Webkit (you know, that thing that Apple lets you use to write web apps for the iPhone) how exactly would RIM be stepping up to this pissing competition? With their own in-house browser? Yeah, I'd like to see that.
And performance comparisons are meaningless. What the video demonstrates is not (necessarily) a faster browser, but simply more recent hardware. Does anyone doubt that the next iPad will out perform this thing?
he's right
Well he is right isn't he. Apps shouldn't replace the web, or a website. Apple can't mke a device to offer FULL web so they use apps instead and blame Flash. Before Jobs said he didn't like Flash, no fanboi had a problem with it. Now, magically, they all hate it because their leader has told them to hate it. :o)
It's more a case
of Adobe being unable to make a version of Flash that runs well on mobile hardware. Even the version that they have for Android (3 years after the release of the iPhone) needs top of the range mobile hardware and web optimised video sources to make a half hearted stab at being reasonable.
Let me get this strait
A twin core A9 machine with 1GB of RAM, not due out until next year, is faster than a single core A9 with 256MB of RAM that has been on the market for over 6 months. You do surprise me.
Also Apple tried to push the "Web Only" approach with the original iPhone. People didn't like it. They relented and went to an Apps plus Web model, and most devs wrote Apps. I'd like to see RIM demonstrate a web version of Epic Citadel to prove that Web is just as fast as a native app.
RIM to developers: we don't want your apps, go make money elsewhere?
A Thumbs Up to you sir, and a FAIL to RIM.
Whether or not a web-only model can achieve native-app like speed and efficiency is only a small part of the equation, and a minor one when it comes to attracting the dev community.
Re native apps vs web, how exactly is a developer supposed to _sell_ "the web"? "Come buy the emperor's new clothes"?
App developers are loving Apple and the App Store because they are making money selling applications to users. Some of these apps accomplish things which are still possible with a web-only model, but who the hell is going to want to develop for that model when it's much harder to make money?
Adobe Air+QNX seems like a win
I think he's playing up web apps because their Air implimentation won't be ready at launch. I think they should take their time and release it with enterprise level features such as RBAC. In my opinion RIM should deepen their corporate focus to keep their main following. I think Andriod and IOS will dominate the toy market and niether really addresses the needs of the Smartphone's early adopters which was the business sector. It's really where the money is anyway.
Then again Intel proved a first to market, temporary kludge can beat out "taking the time to do it right" with their dual chip package quad-core versus AMD's "true" quad-core a couple years ago.
Isn't this what we all laughed about when apple tried it?
Didn't apple argue "we don't need no stinking SDK, write web apps" to the original iPhone... Didn't we all ridicule them for that?
Blackberry isn't fighting the Jobisan way - they're embracing it! The thing is, Steve worked out that his strategy didn't work and pulled a Sir Robin....
The thing is, for technical people you are correct. But for the average user the most important things are:
(1) the device does what the user wants it to do
(2) that the device is easy and intuitive to maintain, upgrade and add functionality
(3) that the device works
I think 3 is the reason why Jobs' way is working - I have had "open" systems in the past where I could install anything I wanted. At some point this has inevitably broken the device I was using. Your average user just doesn't want that - they want to know that whatever they install (through iTunes for example) will do what it says, will not be malware ridden and will not brick their tablet. You can only guarantee this if you control the distribution point.
"There's a module cavity," he said. "So, it can hold a module. So the question is, 'Do you pair this with a smartphone or standalone wide-area [hardware]?'"
Remind anybody else of the Handspring Visor and it's Springboard expansion slot? I've still got a 56k modem module around here somewhere.
I remember
When Palm went the way of the Apple (by removing the screw on backplate) it was time for a lot of folks to jump over to Handspring. I never actually owned any extra modules because even then it felt like the slow death of PDAs was beginning and 'smarter phones' were on the rise.
I do miss graffiti though.
How quickly people forget
That when webapps were all that were available for 3rd party developers at the release of iOS, pretty much everybody moaned for a native SDK.
News Flash, HTML/CSS/Javascript based webapps never went away, they don't need to be submitted to the Appstore and you can code them with whatever tool floats your boat.
Also good luck to RIM with AIR, I'm certain that will turn out nice for Adobe.
Epic Fail
Poor Jimbo seems a bit desperate and sad to me. His ass must be so sore from the daily whipping he is bound to be getting from his company's stakeholders.
That's a really lame attempt to deflect criticism for being very late to the party, having no app strategy, declining market share in their primary market of smart phones and, worse still, Apple starting to nick the corporate business they once completely owned.
As many others pointed out, Jobsy already failed to convince people that all you needed were web apps. If he couldn't pull it off, Jimbo has no chance.
What's really funny is that these comparative performance boasts have such a short shelf life and now Jimbo has goaded the Apple faithful bloggers into trying to tear his new product to shreds - when it finally ships that is. Furthermore when the next model of iPad comes out they will have a field day making the PlayBook look like an antiquated POS. You can bet your life that Apple will make the javascript performance great for them without shouting about it themselves.
Jimbo might just as well have written out a cheque for Apple to run another marketing campaign because it would have cost him less in the long run.
Apple must be wetting themselves with laughter at this.
Nice that it supports multicore, but a shame that neither JavaScript or ActionScript have any language support for threading.
(I know that's not completely relevant - the OS and browser can still make use of multiple cores and GPUs, but from a development point of view it is).
And that's the heart of my complaint - there's a presumption here that developers would, by preference, choose to write everything using web stack technologies. That somehow, we're being railroaded away from the 'familiar' environment of Flash, towards native SDKs.
At least some of the success with the iPhone is the ease with which console developers could port their C++/OpenGL code over. A lot of Android development is by people familiar with Java. And without wishing to sound too snobby, I'm sure that the best Flash and JavaScript developers have previous experience in other programming languages.
@Ivan Headache
It used to be called the Sonesta, a great hotel often used by rock bands. It's now called the Renaissance Amsterdam Hotel, Kattengat 1, Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, 1012 SZ.
Allegedly it's still a brilliant hotel (I stayed there many times back then.... apparently...)
Sounds like he is talking out of his module cavity
On the issue of the iPhone app store. Yes, Jobs tried to sell web apps as good enough, but I believe this was only because their SDK wasn't ready to publish yet, so he was trying to activate the reality distortion field to stall for time but that time it didn't work.
The jailbreak developers I'm sure pushed him forward faster than even he wanted to go.
Thanks for the hotel tips
While the lovely Ivana was recovering in bed today, she decided on the Convent Hotel (just down the road from the Renaissance).
I wonder if she's trying to tell me something?
I think the point has well and truely been missed on this one
As someone who does not hide his distaste for all things jobsian, I WILL admit for the standard joe bloggs home user, having Native Apps can be more useful at times rather then having WebApps.
The thing most people have not really mentioned here is the fact that the Playbook is aimed at firstly at Enterprise users, with the general public as a bonus. The main reasons some of the Companies whom I help support are waiting for the Playbook before they even think about tablets, is very simple. The Blackberry Enterprise Server/BES.
As much as the MD's and CEO's I work with like the look of the iPad's, it has been asked numerous times, "Can we control them from a central location?" and they are usually disapointed when we say "no, not really". It is simply easier on an administration level for larger scale Companies to have a BES infrastructure, add the Playbooks into the servers controlled devices and off we go. Nevermind they can add their Blackberries into the same BES server as the Playbooks.
It has been an added bonus that with the Blackberries, the in house dev teams can just make a WebApp for something they have made in house and do not need to buy/use/train any software to get their apps to work on their mobile devices. Its even nicer that the same applies to the Playbooks.
So with very little effort a Dev can make a WebApp, we can load it into BES, download it to a device and we can either have said Web front end as a homepage or as a icon on the menu. That can be done with one Blackberry or 1000 Blackberries with very little more effort involved never mind it will be just as easy on the Playbooks.
(I will apologise if someone can prove me wrong here, slight ignorance with all things jobsian but) I cannot find a way to do the same thing with a Companies set of iPhones or iPads, I.e. roll out a change to the iphone home page to point towards a WebApp within the local infrastructure OR install a menu icon to them all at once, pointing towards the internal web server.
Forgetting the things that one Companies hardware and devices can do better then the others, that list is endless and will only spark more debate. The thing that will make the Playbook a success of any kind is that it can be administered from a central location. That's where RIM will always make its numbers until the day that Google or Apple decide to make their version of the BES.

Now that nice weather is finally here, how are you taking advantage of it? Any plans? Post a comment in this story, comment on WTOP's Facebook Page or use #WTOP on Twitter.
WASHINGTON - After a long winter, spring has finally come to the D.C. area, and people are taking advantage of it.
Temperatures Monday are expected to reach 73 to 78, and meteorologists say it could get into the mid-80s on Wednesday.
"Tomorrow looks even warmer with a southerly breeze and a partly sunny sky that will help boost temperatures to near 80. The middle of the week will bring the warmest weather with highs in the low- to middle 80s Wednesday and near 80 Thursday. That's about 15 degrees above average," says meteorologist Brian van de Graaf.
The last time it hit at least 80 degrees was Oct. 24, 2012.
Expect lots of folks to be out at the Tidal Basin this week, checking out the cherry blossoms.
This year's cool temperatures delayed their peak bloom.
Also expect people out on the golf courses.
At Hampshire Greens Golf Club in Montgomery County Sunday, tee times were filled through the late afternoon and early evening.
For most people, Sunday was the first round of the year.
"The sun feels great on the skin, and you know muscles are getting pretty loose under the sunshine. I love it," a golfer named Paul said on the driving range .
He and his son were on their first 18 holes together this spring.
MONDAY: Patchy clouds, 73 to 78. Overnight, maybe a sprinkle and lows of 54 to 60.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Around 80.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy with a highs in the low- to mid 80s.
THURSDAY: Evening showers. Highs near 80.

The exterior component and the Stainless steel tub may be okay, however, all the plastic parts that MOVE are inferior. They started breaking within 3 months of buying this and to date we have spent over 300.00 in little cheap plastic pieces so we can have an operable dishwasher. Then the topper, the motor burnt out. To buy it from Sears it was double the cost of purchasing it through the direct manufacturer and of course Sears didn't have it in stock either at a store or online and we would have had to wait longer (or never get it). So we purchased it from the mfg. Now the unit when being used sounds like I have a jet engine going in my kitchen. I am not going to buy another Kenmore product ever. I've had nothing but disappointments and inferior quality from my refrigerator, my oven, my gas grill, and now this.

I have owned this dishwasher for just over a year and love it. The stainless tub really helps with drying and we love it for washing/drying all of our baby bottles and dishes. I just purchased a new home and have to leave this behind, so we went ahead and purchased the same dishwasher to install when we get there. .

We've had this dishwasher for almost a year and it does not clean the dishes! I am disappointed that Consumer Reports recommended it because it definitely is not worth the money. My old dishwasher cost a third as much and cleaned perfectly. Also the spinning arm in the middle is too low. It almost hits the top of my dinner plates and limits what I can put in there. Do not buy this or you will be rewashing half of the dishes you put in it! I wish I could take it back!!
We've had this dishwasher for 17 months and the wheels on the top rack broke about 3 months ago. I called customer service and the rack is not under warranty and they wanted $75 for the two small parts + shipping. I said that I'd find the parts on the internet elsewhere and there you go DISCOUNT and brought the price to $35 for both. Here are the problems with this dishwasher that I over looked: 1. Plastic parts on top rack. They break and if yours haven't broken yet, they will. This is a huge problem every single time you load, roll, unload, etc the top rack. It slides off the roller and the rack hangs there with your glasses. It is heavy. If you have kids, you'll start to monitor them and eventually tell them to stay away from the dishwasher because the rack is so delicate. 2. There is a round food catcher in the bottom of the dishwasher to catch large food particles. It needs to be twisted out and cleaned - not just rinsed. You need to clean the grime / slime / film that lines the filter. It is gross. Why do I need to clean the dishwasher. But a dishwasher with a grinder. 3. I have the model with the power washer in the back. We rarely use it. Do not pay extra for it. I had a whirlpool for 10+ years and the rack was warranted for 5 years. We had them replaced when they rusted. A electrical component eventually went bad and the dishwasher needed to be replaced. There is no way that this Kenmore will last 10+ years. I don't care if whirlpool is a maker of Kenmore. It is an inferior product and I won't be purchasing either brand.

I love this dishwasher. Our dishes come out SO clean, and our old one actually worked ok, so I was hoping a new one would work as well as the older models. The stainless is easy to clean with the swipe of a damp cloth. Its very quiet. I was told by Sears that this is made by Whirlpool. Get it on sale and you'll be thrilled! Love the top rack wash only and heated dry.

Police Chief Mark Magaw plans to release more details of the arrests at a press conference Thursday afternoon.
Police have not released the names of the two people arrested nor what charges they face.
The arrests come less than a day after police pleaded with parents and community members to talk to their teens to find out what really happened at a teen party that turned deadly last weekend.
Thursday - 1/24/2013, 5:59am ET
Michelle Basch,
FORT WASHINGTON, Md. - A 16-year-old boy was gunned down as he left a birthday party at a Fort Washington, Md., home last weekend, and officers are begging for tips that will lead them to his killer.
Police say the house party for a teenage girl was carefully planned by her parents. Only certain kids from Friendly High School were invited, and they even had to show ID at the door.
But despite the efforts by adults to keep the party under control, Prince George's County Police Maj. Michael Straughan said word of the celebration spread to others.
"It went out on Twitter, and it went out on Facebook and it got to people that were not invited. It got to people that weren't welcome. It got to people who were turned away or just showed up outside," Straughan said. "So what happened strictly at midnight when the party ended, and a lot of parents were showing up and pulling up to pick up their children, as the crowd was letting out someone in the crowd fired shots."
The shooting happened early Sunday morning in the 7700 block of Webster Lane, and 16-year-old Marcus Jones was killed.
The gunman is described only as a black male in his late- to early teens, with a medium complexion and a medium build.
Investigators called a community meeting Wednesday night at Friendly High, and urged parents to talk to their kids and convince them to share anything they know about the shooting.
More than 200 parents, students and concerned residents attended.
"Somebody knows who did this, who committed this crime and any information you have, please do not withhold it," said Prince George's County State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks.
"We cannot tolerate the loss of our young people."
Prince George's County Police Maj. Jason Bogue said he, like many who attended the meeting, is a parent.
"It ticks me off that something like this, this tragic event, had to happen because we know it did not," Bogue said.
"This meeting is about getting information and making certain this case is solved for your community," Bogue added.
Police have increased patrols in the area where the shooting happened, and the number of school resource officers at the school has been increased from one to two.
Friendly High also has brought in extra psychologists and counselors to help students deal with what happened, but there have been fights at the school and some students have stayed out of class out of fear.
During the meeting, someone asked if the school would consider adding metal detectors.
"We are presenting a comprehensive security plan to the Board of Education on Feb. 7," said Rex Barrett with Prince George's County Schools security. "Everything's on the table as far as that goes. Metal detectors will be part of the proposal, but that's something that we have to look into."
Also at the meeting, a man who identified himself as the dead boy's grandfather took to the microphone speaking in a voice cracking with emotion.
He spoke about losing both his son and grandson to bullets.
Anyone with information about Jones' death is asked to call Prince George's County police at (301) 772-4925.
Those who wish to remain anonymous with tips can call Crime Solvers at (866) 411-TIPS.
Those with information also can text "PGPD plus your message" to CRIMES (274637) with a mobile phone, or provide a tip online here.
