Bluetooth and 802.11 b/g run on the same frequency band and can potentially interfere with each other. Only recently have some vendors demonstrated devices in which they successfully coexist. In most cases, their coexistence results in internal interference (collisions), causing dropped signals and lost packets. So far the only successful combo devices I am aware of, are some highend handheld devices that contain some new combo wireless chips.

Why not just call him Abe Lincoln, or Frank Roosevelt? Who writes this drek?

not blank discs for some one else to use. A mass produced pre-encoded disc (for ex. a movie) has not yet been produced.

they haven't successfully mass manufactured a dual layer Blu-Ray disk yet.

is already told. But how about telling a different one? Maybe Jason and the Argonauts or the Battle of Thermopyle or something like the Three Musketeers? There are millions of stories available. Why do you have to see the same one over and over and over and over and....

with this title is the plot:
"Equipped with the heavenly sword, Nariko will leave on an adventure in order to avenge the people of her village exterminated by the army of the King."
How many thousand more times must this hackneyed piece of trype have a game built around it? Are there no creative writing courses in Japanese universities?
For the love of God, please, some one come up with an original idea!

science is what gets you things like a state kicking the theory of evolution out of it's science curriculum, and replacing it with creationism. 70% of politicians are lawyers and the rest are divided between farmers and small businessmen. They don't know a theory from a fact from a hypothosis from a paradigm shift. A good example is the California politician who while working to kill the nuclear industry proudly remarked to the press "the only physics I ever took was Exlax".

in West Philly last summer, and I know what you mean by "ghetto". I really hate to admit it because it is an american city, but the last time I was that nervously uncomfortable was in southern Lebanan in '82. Puting a school of this type in such a place is just another example of the good work with the education system that MS has been doing for many years.

for the spelling edit, that was embarassing.

to a few PC based games, but it could change if any of the console based services were to allow you to win redeemable "points".

if it had only gone up 2% more, the story might have made Coast to Coast AM.

We need more public/private collaborations like this to improve the school system.

consoles, only between games. The A.I. is in the software, not the hardware. A game that plays dumb on one system will play dumb on another, and the same thing goes for a game that plays smart.

Notice I said decent numbers, not "win". They would have to hire one or more japanese development houses to crank out the "dating" games and Hentai porn games that sell like hotcakes in Japan.

You are aware that the PS2 has a catalog of around 5000 games, right? What's the reason you've never seen anywhere near that many yourself? It's because a very large number of them would border on illegality in the US and maybe even Europe. If you think politicians and...

I am a big watcher of movies, I've been collecting them since '81 and have a library of over 600. I'm simply saying that with the exception of the PS3 (because it's got the Blu-Ray drive whether you want it or not) I would not buy a player of either format until there is a clear winner in the war. The players and movies both are too expensive to risk possibly picking the wrong horse. I'm a veteran of the Betamax/VHS war and though I guessed right, I had a lot of friends who got burned when...
