    Air Toshiba vs Samsung SSD, Real issue?

    I wouldn't say its a real issue, the samsung SSD (example SM128) is the most update SSD, a little faster. A tech i know states they don't use TS SSD's any longer, new refurbish, or second hand MBA may have them. I'm not sure of the date, i think the switch to SM-SSD occurred around feb-March...

    Anyone have any spare G+ invites?

    Google Plus is starting to run... tons of groups... phones, cars, guns, military, apple, Climbing, Business, Actors, football... No impostors, you need your real info/name... although nicknames can be use on your home page after you join.

    Is it possible to remove a person from Google Plus?

    If you don't have many people in the circle, delete the circle and start a new one. its not that much of a hassle since all you have to do is drag-drop names into circles. Google Plus is great

    XOOM WiFi available today

    what's amazing to me is... why someone would want a device that nobody wants, and not want a device that everyone wants... across the Globe. to each his own i guess.

    Upgrade to the Thunderbolt or wait for something better?

    Right now it seems users have to sacrifice speed for battery drain, with all these lighting speed cell phones, the Battery will be your master. Then again, just carry a portable charger and charge the phone when you can or need to.

    Anyone else pre-ordering the Verizon iPhone 4 tonight?

    i can't buy an old phone at top prices with the new iphone only a few months away. Too many high lined phones are being release between now and the summer, i can't take a step backwards... and get locked into a 2 year contract, that's just me.

    Apple's Tim Cook on iPad competition> Android tablets just 'scaled up smartphones'

    Tablets are becoming like cell phones.... this is better, this one doesn't do this... that one doesn't do it as good as this one...that one lacks this... this one lacks that. Tablets will be the future, they're just starting out, so get ready for all the new and improve tablets.

    Why do I want an iPad?

    i think an iPad can do anything a computer can do for most people. You can email, surf the net, text for free, play games, and make calls for free.

    I tried a Galaxy Tab

    The practical effect of this decision is that the Galaxy Tab is effectively an 'over-sized phone' for the purposes of web content. For example, an iPad-style side-navigation section just won’t fit on the screen. We think it’s probably best to treat it as a phone with big pixels rather than a...
