had netflix. Got tired of the lack of quality items. Very few actually good popular items, and then they only show up months later. Redbox gives out enough promo codes to keep up with the new stuff. The rest of the stuff, who the heck watch that crap. Movies that no one has ever heard of. Why take the time to stream them? Just to get their "we offer XXXX streaming items" numbers up

If you find some TV series to watch, it is nice to be able to go through them, until they decide to stop streaming a few random episodes or a season in the middle. Or had problems with random episodes that would continually lock up or audio would go off. So no good there. If I had extra money sure, but I just can't see it being really worth it.

I share a Hulu+ account with someone else. I am not really a fan. I am paying, but there are still commercials. WTF. Plus too much of the content is computer only, so I can't even watch it through my BR player in all it's glory. They need to figure out what they are doing.

Laser printer. Economical. Lasts forever on one toner cartridge. Clearance models can be found for cheap.

the targus slim case and vuscape are fantastic. we have both.

it took me awhile to find the case i wanted and i am very picky. they have a really nice material. Not leather, not fake leather, kind of a plastic/fabric with a waterproof coating. magnetic on/off. good protection of edges. tilts for movie viewing. the slimcase is like a snap on hardshell back with a flip over cover. Better then the too thin smart cover that offers no real protection. Holds it very securely.

only downside is the damn hole they put in the back to show off the apple logo. really who cares? stop doing that. it just makes it so stuff can get in your case. makes no sense to me.

I have had other cases and these are by far the best.

they are for the "new" ipad but they fit the 2 as well.

every post about password strength makes me remember this

i know i do a stupid thing, but i still do it. i use the same password for a lot of things. but i can only remember so much, so something has to give. If there could be a nice standard, that would help. Sites keep on adding the next thing, more characters, caps, numbers, symbols, emoticons, hiakus...

lasers do not necessarily cost more up front. My BW laser was $70 and i am still using the same toner cartridge 1.5 years later... i gave up on inkjet for home. I really have no need for it. If i want to print photos I will send them to walgreens.

some lasers can produce really good images too. not high end inkjet quality, but then again it all depends on what you are doing.

we have one to rule them all which is both a benefit and a problem. for apps it is great. for the calendar sure, we like to be able to see other's appointments (just my wife, our 6 month old and myself). I love that she can take photos, mostly of my son, and they show up in my photostream.

The problem. I really dont want to pay for any additional icloud space and the 5gb is not large enough to support 2 devices this way. Especially with the larger photos from the new ipad. i think $20 for an additional 10gb of space is pretty steep. Especially with dropbox i have 9gb for free (and you could have up to 18gb for free, or 100gb for $100 where as with icloud you get 55 gb for $100).

Who knows I will probably bite the bullet and upgrade to the lowest amount. I am just a stingy guy.

i wrap my sandwich in saran or cling wrap, and i eat at my work desk everyday. i open the wrapper and it lays nicely over the keyboard. everything is protected, when yu are done, clean up takes 2 seconds, done and done.

needs a card reader...

now how about a dock that can do 2 ipads, not take up a ton of room, and work with some cases. then we'd be talking

switch to a BW laser and you'll never go back.

I got mine on clearance for $60. I have had it for 2 years, I actually print all the time at home now and I still have over 50% of my toner.

for day to day things, an inket has no place.
