  • @tristan nobody used it before the #dickbar, people just wanted an excuse to rant online. #
  • @julie_anna just think, by staying here you get to hang out with me! #winning #
  • Nice of @thekarladam and <redacted> to be respectful of those who legitimately waited in line all day! #
  • Realized when I got home that had I not corrected Apple's mistake, I could have saved >$100 today. /me is too honest of a person! #
  • Insanely awesome #tsunami wave height visualization from the NOAA! Utterly amazing and a definite must see! #japan http://t.co/vdAyJaH #
  • I've owned an iPad for nearly 2 hours and still not opened it yet. Why? Because sometimes there are bigger picture things one needs to do ;) #
  • @davglass Bought 2 VZW ones today. :) Still not had a chance to open it yet though. Day off and yet still work is keeping me hopping bigtime #
  • @stroughtonsmith once you go white you'll never go black… Errr back… to black…

    I was hesitant at first, but so far happy I chose well #

  • Good thing I didn't pick the Verizon model for network speed or latency. Yeesh! ;) #ipad2 #
  • Is it just me, or does Hulu Plus not play videos for anyone else on the iPad 2? #
  • Wish Apple would release the MobileMe screen sharing feature for iOS. Every VNC app I've used for the iPad was crappy in some critical way. #
  • @dong1225 Screens, no. iTeleport, yes. I'm lumping the later in the fatally flawed (to me anyway) category. #
  • Is Apple being devious in their AppStore marketing & AirVideo (iOS app) does not support video over AirPlay or is it something w/ my content #
  • @dong1225 I said I've not used Screens, but I'm gunshy now. #
  • @jadedfox worked for me with Discovery App, but AirVideo is a no go (does audio only), Hulu won't play content at all, locally or on ATV. #
  • OMG. I fire up a game (RealRacingHD2) for first time and it suddenly starts outputting the audio out my ATV without asking!? Do not want! #
  • @pskennedySOS uses gmail for "auth", server side app is poorly written, fails to connect half the time, buggy when it does connect. #
  • @pskennedySOS sucks in many environments, not just corp environment. ;) #
  • My brain is fried… After being up for over 40 hours now the Japanese is blurring into something more akin to Klingon to my ears. #
  • Woohoo! @Yahoo has helped raise over $150k for Japanese #quake and #tsunami relief efforts via the Yahoo! front page! Rock on team! #
  • @sampullara 1) yes, I'm at the latest, I said Discovery HD works. 2) Apple listed them as one of the apps which "worked" in the AppStore. ;) #
  • This scares me for the people in Japan: http://t.co/25Ydl9o — Can we once and for all get a clear answer on the possible nuclear meltdown? #
  • @ChiperSoft the person donating picks the organization it goes to… ;) try clicking the link on the homepage and making a donation! #
  • @tenbus_uk the lip movement sure seems to be linked to the mouths of the people on NHK news (non-english version)… ;) #
  • @eridius Ty! Definitely most helpful reply on the topic! Maybe I'll now forgive you for making me wait longer… ;) #
  • @mantia that's what I bought too. Not sure how to feel about that! :P #
  • @chronic which? Switchboard, Unixbox, Chatterbox, or MobileGenius? #
