I have to agree with many of the other posters, Ford/Microsoft have done tremendous things with the sync technology. I remember that Apple had once been rumored to be working with VW on a similar project but it was scrapped. I wonder if they (Apple) are starting to look back and see that they could have moved itunes/ipod integration even further had they not quit on the idea. If I was in the market for a car in that class, I have to say that the Fusion, the sync option would take it to the top of my list. All of this praise for Microsoft.........from a Apple fanboy. See bipartisanship can exist in the computer/technology world! In reply to: "Ford cars to become Wi-Fi hot spots"

jakemochas appears to be the one who is bogus, he obviously has never experienced the benefits of having wireless printing via router for all of his or guests computers or the ability to have hdd's attached for either backup or machine to machine data transfer.

Brandon.........you are obviously a man of overstatement..........."appears as useless as the iPod"...........even users of other media players have to have some respect that over 100 million iPods have been sold. This alone discounts your comment that the device is useless. It actually is preferred by the overwhelming majority of the buying public In reply to: "How the Kindle DX could be worth the price"

And what you are describing is a device which is not great for reading for long periods of time and has a limited battery life if using on the go! Still you guys are missing the point as to who and why this technology is interesting and useful. Just because you don't see a purpose or can't afford doesn't mean that others do see a use and can afford. In reply to: "How the Kindle DX could be worth the price"

As a owner of a Macbook Air RevB, I have to tell saw that it is my laptop of choice, even over my MBP. You get really used to the lightness and compactness of the unit while not having to give up a full size screen or keyboard like most of the netbooks. I think it is sad that most peoples complaints about machines like this and others from Dell and IBM always focus on the price. Yes it is high, and yes we made compromises or choices, depending on how one sees it, but why do you care about how we chose to spend our money? If value is what you desire, more power to you, Walmart loves folks like you and I mean that to be a insult. I choose to like and spend my money on other items that I desire and meet the needs that I intended to fulfill! And as for the one commenter about the ethernet port missing on the Air, I am still searching for a time and place when I will need it! I hope you are using yours every single friggin day! It seems to provide you with great comfort knowing you have one! In reply to: "Hands-on with the Dell Adamo"

My only issue with all of these ultra small netbooks is the fatigue issue of looking and working with a screen that small for a long period of time. With that being said, these machines are not supposed to be desktop replacement, just very small and light weight laptops for people on the go who are willing to make the compromises for portability. As for price, to each his own. I am the owner of a 2nd generation Air and I love it. It was expensive and it does everything that I wanted it to do, and I more than happy with what I got in return. So in regards to this new Sony, if you like it and are willing to pay for it you will be rewarded with a machine that you like and meets your needs. Refinement does come at some cost. Innovation and choice are great, we all benefit in the long run. In reply to: "Getting hands-on with the Sony Vaio Lifestyle PC"
