QuoteHungary's new constitution is being drafted on Apple Inc. (AAPL)'s iPad, Jozsef Szajer, a ruling party lawmaker in the European Parliament, said in a blog post.

Steve Jobs will surely be happy when he gets word that Hungary's new constitution is being written on an iPad, actually my iPad," Szajer said in a post, adding that it was the first constitution in the world to be written on the device. "The best is I don't have to wait for minutes to turn it on, like with a normal laptop. I can open it anywhere and can take advantage of every minute. It's a miracle!"

Can anyone recommend software that can convert .avi files to something compatible with an iphone?

Upgraded to 4.3 and now it can't get a signal from my carrier. It just constantly sits there at zero bars, mocking me.

I'm buying an Andriod phone, anyone wants to purchase a hardly used iPhone 4?

The Zune is dead.

...long live the Zune.

The Zune will live on in Windows Phone 7.  It's likely that Microsoft will make or license a non-phone WP7 device, a la iPod Touch.  Whether or not it will be called "Zune", that's essentially what it will be.

The Zune software blows iTunes away.

I might be interested if you're serious.  My wife dropped her ~35 day old Samsung Focus and cracked the screen (super unlucky: the screen went straight down onto a rock, boom no more phone), so she's looking at options that are less expensive than paying full price for a new one ($4 or 500).  We're going to buy a new screen and see if we can fix it on our own, but if that doesn't work....

What Android phone did you end up getting?

MBM: I wouldn't waste a whole lot of time looking for an affordable used iPhone 4.  Resale value on all iPhones is very high.  A buddy of mine sold his 3GS for ~$350 on ebay.  Your wife's experience is precisely why I pay my $7 a month for Sprint's equipment protection plan :D

iTunes died on me today, claiming my computer lacks memory and therefor is unable to save the library. A message about this pops up every 2 seconds.

Winamp is the future!
Winamp does the deed for me as well.

My sisters and I bought an iPad 1st gen for my father for Christmas, he's now crossing the Digital Dad Divide and I'm getting regular emails from him about silly videos to look up on youtube.  :lol:

Now I'm expecting one day or the other he'll inadvertently send a link to some sexy pics website.

Lemme guess, you downloaded it from Best Buy so you could get Angry Birds for free for your kids?  Well anyway, that's what I did.  Weird playing it on a 22" monitor instead of a cellphone screen.
