Apple iPad

Interesting device. Not exactly priced as cheaply as other eBook readers but of course it is much more capable than that. Just annoyed that the 3G capability costs an extra $130. Though like the iPod Touch, many will fine WIFI only capability enough.

I think if it imported and handled camera RAW files and had a regular USB port instead of needing that camera photo adapter, it would be a great travel companion for photographers.

I am really interested in the initial comments about the speed of the device from Daring Fireball.

Yeah... I'm thinking if Conan was such a 'failure', his ratings wouldn't rise even if he is leaving.

Ok.. so if Conan is such a failure, there should be no reason for a non-compete clause if Conan ends up out of NBC.

winter weather

Cold out but not terribly windy yesterday and today like earlier in the year. With temps this cold I'd like to live in a 'winter wonderland' but all the snow that has fallen is gone. You may spot a few patches of dirty snow. Let's see how much falls on Tues.

Happy New Year

It is winter in New York City so can't really expect great weather especially on New Year's Eve. Could have been a little more pleasant for the people standing in Times Square but at least it wasn't bitterly cold.

To everyone please have a Safe and Happy New Year.
