Re: New release named "chinook"?

<q>Although I wish it had a camera, the N800 is a portable device with many of the features of the iPhone. Camera, multimedia, email, etc. The cost is $399.99, and you know, Skype or Gizmo (which the tablet-like device is already compatible with) is usually cheaper than Wi-Fi.</q>

Uhh... First he makes a mistake in the camera-part and now "Skype or Gizmo is usually cheaper than WiFi" ??? Yeah, a very serious journalist.

Yeah, I'm not really sure what point he's trying to make about "cheaper than WiFi" but at least it's positive overall! :)

So the o/s's are all wind.

Now that explains the stink I smell whenever the o/s "breaks"

No wait, it could be OpenGL! Finally a driver for powerVR? It can't be could it! No no, it must be both of them! With Skype! And real Rotors for better wifi AND Wimax reception! Maybe we're getting wireless USB host too? A miltary grade Laser stylus? Transformer-esque stand? OpenGL accelerated Skype with Youtube plugin, and wireless Rotors with lasers???

Oh my, i can't keep track of all these! :eek:

The release names are all appellations for wind. Dunno the relevance. ;)

EDIT: lol Mark. Beat me too it.

kudos to Laurent, this morning, who noticed the wind analogy. see above in this thread. Diablo sounds cool, but Elephanta?
