- @cksthree True, the Storm feature *list* looks good. But reading between the lines, the touch UI has been tacked on and the phone is buggy.
- After reading many Storm reviews, I've concluded: if you want a touchscreen, get an iPhone. If you want a keyboard, get a traditional BB.
- @mas90guru Yeah, I want to learn more about the Storm's multimedia features and the cradle/dock that it ships with. Unleash the bloggers!
- AppleTV 2.3 update is out. New Airport Express streaming feature. And Boxee loading hack killed...

Re: Why the world doesn’t need Hi-Def DVD’s
I think David Pogue hits the nail on the head when he compares Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD not to VHS vs. Betamax, but to SA-CD vs. DVD-Audio. Traditional CDs won that battle, and I think plain DVDs will win this one.
At least until online distribution, which I don’t think will come as soon as some others are saying, but that’s another post . . .
