cyclingplatypus commented on Netflix Online Video Becomes All-You-Eat Tomorrow; Can It Compete With iTunes Video Rentals?, at 10:29 PM on Jan 13 @ MONTY Right, because the iTunes store is just doing amazing with video. Business week seems to think that Apple has 75% of the video market right now without rentals...so it would seem that your sarcastic statement would be true...they have done amazing with video.

I'm trying to figure out if you are doing it to buck the "everything in the world has to be perfect trend" or you just can't figure out how to remove it... That being said, +1 regular. more » [gizmodo]

cyclingplatypus commented on iPhone Nano or Cheap Chinese Knockoff?, at 7:55 AM on Oct 29, 2007 "Their source "implores" them that it really is the iPhone Nano and it originates inside Apple" Take a look at that keyboard that should be the first clue that it didn't originate in Apple...I'm quite certain that if it did that it'll be pretty easy to track it back to that employee. more » [gizmodo]

cyclingplatypus commented on AT&T Earnings Call; Apple's Stock Down Due to Wild Analyst Predictions, at 11:10 AM on Jul 24, 2007 They (Apple) were saying that it was 2%, that still 2,920 people who went uncompensated for their frustration, now I'll admit that expecting compensation shouldn't be a given but it would of been real nice if AT&T would have waived the activation fee for those unlucky 2,900 people...but then again that would be being customer service oriented instead of money grubbing oriented.

cyclingplatypus commented on Prepaid iPhone Plans Possible? Please., at 1:51 PM on Jun 7, 2007 I do the prepaid thing with an unlocked Treo 650 and I'd love the option to do prepaid with an iPhone, I realize to some that the thought of someone who doesn't have his phone attached to his head at all times is odd but some of us like the convenience of a cell but don't "need" to be in touch with everyone all the time. more » [gizmodo]
