Hey, Micky, thanks for sharing that. Honestly, I didn't see the Japanese from that side. I mean, I always thought they were something like this "+40" described them.

As someone living in Japan right now, I can tell you that the iPhone is far beyond anything they have here. People here rarely buy smartphones, and the browsers on the 3G phones leave much to be desired.

Perhaps the sale of iPhones will increase peoples exposure to Apple as well, it would be nice to see some more variety. I can hardly talk people out of using internet explorer, much less switch to a different operating system.

I carry my shame in my tragically bitten nails...After growing up with a 'psycho' abusive mother, i would use nail biting as a calming device...I did not suck my thumb as an infant...This must be connected. Maybe a child's way of self-calming from a borderline-Mother??
I invite any feedback. Fortunately, I do not have an addictive personality, otherwise, WHO KNOWS??

I have a wooden katana and 3 Blunt katana's but i have the 3 blunts as show. Some people want them for show and respect that in the end yes their swords but if you treat a katana with respect but there is no real places to learn all this when you want to learn. Im the 17 but its mostly people who have nothing better to do and think their clever that go around with this sword to kill

It's a very good law. According to recent surveys, the number of knife/sword related crimes have decreased. This shows the effectiveness of this law.
Obviously the ones who want to buy cheap replica swords are teenage punks who think they are trained ninjas because they watch too much TV and spend too much time on the net.
And the majority of knife/sword related incidents are committed by these kids. So by passing this law, it puts yet another weapon out of their reach. And as for you who think swords and knives are the same-they're not. It takes one blow from a sword to cause serious injury or even death. As for a kitchen knife, it takes 2-5 minutes to cause the same damage. So stop whining, grow up and face reality.

It's obvious why HD-DVD lost i mean "HD-DVD," what a mouthful!

I think we can all agree that if it was mearly "HDVD," or "High Definition Video Disk," it would have done much better in the marketplace.

After all "Blu-Ray" is just so much easier to say than "HD-DVD."

"HDVD" rolls of the tounge much nicer.
