Always wanted one of those but always scared from reviews.

Don't be scared. I have 3 of these (1TB for Time Machine, 2 TB for media drive and a 500GB mini for mobile storage). One of them showed up dead but was replaced and I've had no issues with any of them. It's been well over a year now I think.

Haha that actually scares me.


Getting a replacement is cool but the failure is not.

True, but on the bright side at least it showed up dead so there was no data loss, just the minor inconvenience of having to send the drive back. Like I said though, no issues with the performance or reliability of the drives since then.

As a T-Mobile subscriber, I would say that the problem is not with the availability of the handsets themselves, but that iPhones are limited to EDGE speeds on the T-Mobile network due to an incompatibility in 3G/4G technologies used by AT&T and T-Mobile.

I know that. However, it will function. How many places are you without wifi? And of those places without wifi have you found yourself "needing" 3G? Pandora streams fine over EDGE, webbrowsing is fine over EDGE, even Youtube is fine over EDGE. I would say video chatting would suffer... but Facetime only allows video chats over wifi.

I was just saying that it's available as an option.

I've only found myself wanting 3G for doing Google Maps out and about. Those other things are fine on EDGE, but I personally can't see paying that much for a phone that can only do EDGE.

I know it's still an option, I was merely making a guess as to why someone wouldn't want to use an iPhone with T-Mobile. :p

Sold my old macbook pro. (mbp 1,1) :(
But bought a new iPad! :)

I'm not that portable anymore, so the iPad should suit me well. Bought the last one at wally world. White, 16GB. No 3G for me, I can tether it up to my android phone.

Agreed nice looking bike. Is it for trails and such? Sorry I'm not a big bicycle guy.

I would say that it is for a little of everything. I ride mostly cross country, single track, some stunts, and a little downhill. It will do all of that, easily, and comfortably. Imagine a Cadillac floating on the highway over every bump, but this is a bike, floating over roots and rocks on a trail.
