Today Ill finally find a way to beat the DRM on iTunes movies. I cant believe its so much work to take a movie I paid for and put it on my DVD player. If I can "authorize" up to 5 computers, why cant I damn "authorize" my dvd player.
I am not buying an iTV but I am immediately buying the new iphone when it comes out.

If I had a job I would buy that thing so hard.

Yeah I'm glad we're finally getting it down here. I'm waiting to see what the plans are like before I get one but it's sexy tiny tech so it's only a matter of time.

The cheapest plan last available was $60 and that comes with unlimited data and hundreds of minutes. They haven't posted any plans for the 3G. I do hope this means ATT is going to invest in their 3G network expansion. Here in the states, its only available in major metropolitan areas, and even then, not all of them.

[Doc]

3G is fairly wide spread here at least around the major cities, which is why I guess we haven't seen one until now. They're going to have it on a couple of carriers here nad I'm hoping that maybe I'll be able to buy it outright and get it on a prepaid plan... but I doubt it.

According to Wired you'll pick one of ATT's existing call plans then add $30/month for data. $45/month for data if you want the business plan. It's unclear if the business plan is required for Exchange access.

Work technical wizardry and connect my macbook, wirelessly, to my tv thereby allowing me to watch my downloaded movies directly on TV. Next up: figuring out if it would be cheaper to build my own bumper pool table or buy one.
Tomorrow: Feed cats. Mow Lawn. Chicken.

What did you do?

[smick]

And you deserved a can for that post, but with all this rude talk about 40 year old ladies flying about, I'm just not in the mood.

I was just reflecting the other day on how a 32 year old lady took my virginity.   Now, as a 32 year old I gotta say "Alright Lady... You go!"

In other news: Today I biked through downtown Portland with about 1,000 nude people.  As the song goes, it was a heap of trouble for all concerned.

What did she do with it? Did she give it back when she was done?

[Doc]

I don't know that he'd want what she did it with back. At least not until after she wiped it off.

I connected my old powerbook to the TV via the S-video output. Connected audio to my sound system with the audio out jack. Then I ran itunes on the powerbook, and connected Screen Sharing with my macbook and also ran itunes, with itunes sharing on. So I am able to control the powerbook, which is using my tv as a monitor and sound system as audio, wirelessly from my macbook and I am able to access both computers' itunes libraries and an external harddrive of downloaded movies connected to the PB. 
I might work harder to make it a total media center computer slave.

Damn, I could totally do that if I had another computer, and have often dreamed of using a mac mini and a huge external hd to this purpose, but yeah, i thought there was going to be magic involved I guess, free magic.
