Yes I imagine they could be when implemented properly and not thrown around haphazardly like one dollar bills at a shitty strip joint

so I am sure you could not escape the news today that the [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051VVOB2"]Kindle Fire[/ame] was introduced by Amazon.

it sports a pretty revolutionary new browser that is explained on this page (with video) ...
wonder what the resident nerds think of it?

I heard about this shit the moment I turned on the radio

I've seen these. I think there's some much cheaper models though. I don't really know, actually. I've only seen them in my periphery. I refuse to acknowledge a music-reproduction device endorsed by a fucking hip hop star.

the cheap ones i guess are counterfeit. went to the beats website and there is a list of at least 200 websites that you are not supposed to buy from on it.

Ordered the Playbook for $199 on newegg. OS 2.0 is being updated in Feb, so it's a no brainer to go with this over the Fire.

 

[einride]

a long ass time.

1month

 

[lurch70]

hahaha ... 1 month feels like 2 years in the town Frank lives.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]
