Do u think they're coming out with too much stuff, and too fast? I mean the regular ipods were just invented like a couple years ago, now they got an ipod touch, and a phone similar to an ipod. what will they make next?

Hi no Seijin

I'm hoping for a laptop that won't crash and burn for no reason.

I'm sorta glad it's doing that, I think they're compensating for not being in flying cars by now like Back to the Future said we would.

That's business for you, JDog; they need to rake in the cash somehow, and...well, that's all they're really good for.

We need to pull through eventually, though. Remember what Sarge said in RvB: "The solution to today's overabundance of technology isn't more useless gadgets; it's more useless features and fewer usable gadgets."

Or something.



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

I can't wait until Metal gear-esque Codecs come out to the public.

That'd be awesome.

I heard they already started making the PS4, and the PS3 hasnt even been out that long.

They already have them, but they're for military use only.  They work by touching your eardrum and making only it vibrate, essentially turning your ear into a speaker.  They're very expensive, but they aren't classified or anything-- they just require a license to own and operate.

They can also cause permanent ear damage if not installed by a proper technician.

But still wouldn't it be cool? I mean having it so no one can eavesdrop on your conversations? They'd hear on side but thats it.

Probably trying to make up for Nintendo's release of their new DS-i System.

jdubroxs

Yeah but still, I just got a good game collection for the PS3, now they're making another system already lol

The Glamour Nazi

Well let me first say, Pics or it ain't happening.

I mean Come on I think nintendo is the only on Daft enough to release a new system right now.

jdubroxs

Im surprised Xbox hasnt released a new system yet. lol

The Glamour Nazi

Eh, It's microsoft, They won't spend money when they're making so much right now.

I mean all the money they get for charging to use online when you already pay for your internet.

Keaton

Surely you've heard about the newest Microsoft project, right?  They're trying to incorporate blu-ray graphics and a fully integrated motion-sensing system into the newest Xbox.

...

...

...

it's called the PSWii60.

......PFFFFFFF

jdubroxs

yea, am just saying...im actually surprised that there isnt a handheld xbox system yet lol

The Glamour Nazi

Well, That's because they want to be able to charge for online and not a lot of Portable games can be internet capable.
