My Nexus One is only just now starting to have issues with the microUSB port. I think if the device had a better battery, that I wouldn't be having any trouble at all with it. And even now, it appears that the port is going to outlive the device as I'm starting to have some weird issues with the...

Video chat would be sweet with a Pyra. Especially with more RAM and a better processor.

That's a terrible way of handling the problem of too few votes. Unless and until there's some evidence to support the supposition that anonymity is causing the ratings to deteriorate, there's not reason to even consider doing away with anonymous ratings. It's deeply disturbing how many people...

I suspect the term is going to be pyrites, not sure what the nick name for pyra is going to be, perhaps pyres. Unless ED has changed his mind, I thought the preorders weren't going to involve any money changing hands until the units were produced, hence the finance aspect. As much as we trust...

That's not surprising,it would have been reallly nice if the production run hadn't taken so long, so that there could have been a much larger number of Pandies out in the world before the plug got pulled. Still, there are quite a few of them out there and I'm starting to put aside money for an...

You mean just reds and blues without any greens? If that's the case, that sounds like a cabling problem or possibly something physically wrong with the LCD. And no amount of changing settings is likely to change that. Or at least that's what this sounds like, perhaps if you could post a picture...

Or English speakers for that matter. You don't have to know much German to understand some Dutch. I wonder how that translates over to Afrikaans.

I'm well aware of that, I've got a natural sciences degree. It's just a really crappy standard for use outside of the sciences as it doesn't in any way shape or form reflect ones natural sense of temperature. Basically how much does the temperature differ from my body temperature and what I feel...

I don't think it makes much sense to include DAB support in the Pyra. Looking at the availability of DAB signals, it's pretty much Europe, Australia and China, which means that a considerable chunk of the Pyra user base would be paying for hardware that wouldn't serve any purpose. And that of...

This is pretty much the same problem that we have. There aren't a sufficient number of votes to be meaningful. It's just that we would have a situation where nearly all the apps are within 100 points of the starting position. Adding a layer that requires people to understand isn't going to...

I like the idea of cellular, it's a shame that it's going to not be realistic due to the size, power and the fact that many people won't be using it. I wouldn't bother with IR at this point, seeing as we have BT support and that can do basically everything that IR does, providing one has the...

This isn't a particular problem. Once you have a sufficient number of samples to have a statistically significant set of data, it doesn't really matter how many more data points you have. Sure, you will continue to see improvements in the accuracy, but the amount of accuracy will still be...

Perhaps politely inquiring about the license would be in order. I'm not sure that it would be unreasonable for them to keep the assets proprietary and just release the source code for use with source ports. However, it would be awesome if they opened the source code in general. It might be...

That's a non-standard use of the word persistent. Persistent means across boots or executions of the program. There's tons of settings that I can set that get wiped out by closing the application or shutting the system down. This is generally done when a setting might break the application to...

And what are you planning to do, haras the person that gave the bad feedback? Barring the case that they make a comment like Conrad does, you don't really have any way of responding directly to a star rating anyways. What's more, if there's substantial negative feedback building up, you've...

I'm not likely to buy a PS4 considering the shenanigans that Sony pulled with the PS3. Removing features from later editions and the effectively forced updates that removed the Other OS feature and such.

That's an inaccurate reinterpretation. We don't need to verify the safety because nobody has put forward a plausible mechanism for them causing cancer or any other health problems from being exposed to the wireless that's in our environment. We don't have unlimited funds for scientific...

The point is that until somebody comes up with a plausible mechanism by which these rays are dangerous, it isn't even worth studying. Without that scientists can't even formulate a hypothesis to test let along collect useful data. We've been bombarded by much more dangerous cosmic rays for the...

X-Rays are completely different from the EMR that's coming off of wireless devices. They're high energy and have been known to cause damage to the DNA the same way that cosmic raise and UV does. Microwaves themselves are normally safe, but the applications that we use them for are much, much...

There's presently no evidence that these radio waves are causing health problems, nor is there at present a plausible theory under which they harm humans. And as they're not comprised of ionizing radiation we can definitively state that they don't cause cancer.
