@rarson It is "with special offers" what does that mean if not ad supported?

@craigprime the iMac is a desktop computer. The iPod, iPod Nano, and the iPhone are all targeted to music listeners with different needs. You may have a 160 gb iPod classic and an iPhone but you will never have iPod classic and an iPod Nano or a iTouch and an iPhone. iPad and the iPad Mini are again not to be own together. You buy one for your needs. Nintendo came out with three different DS they wanted you to buy.

@rarson For 199 you get an ad supported Kindle.

@nedrith You mean like all cell phones contracts ever?

@MeatWood89 Those prices are insane.

@nathangray You realize that FiOS is a marketing brand of Verizon. Do you also realize the reason you have Verizon vs ATT or Comcast vs Cox is because of decades(meaning pre-70's) old zoning right sales. TW is in NYC because they pay to overlay there wires in a zone they do not currently own. RCN does this in Boston and NYC. Idea that Google needs to sue anyone is comical.

@RAHBRT You realize that when the PS3 was first released it put all of Sony in the red. They fired everyone associated with the PS3 including Ken Kutaragi. It lost Sony ton of dough. It would probably would have been killed if it did not serve as a vehicle to beat Toshiba and HDDVD.

This was interesting. Boston is also a huge tech hub in general. Look at the Microsoft New England Research and Development Center and the tons starts ups.
