Only $900!

Compassionately intolerant

Right. Though I don't love Verizon, they are the best game in town...but not for the spanking new iPhone. Still haven't figured out what to do.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Only $900!

That's $3.52/Gb.

Hmm, about $1 more per Gb than a solid state drive, in a convenient little package.

It'd make one hell of a tiny server with that wall plug wireless dongle.

Hey. New board.

I just bought a 1 TB external hard drive and plugged it into my Airport Extreme Base Station with 2 partitions (350 GB of HFS+ for laptop Time Machine backups and 600 GB of FAT32 for Improbable Girl's backups and media server duties for when I get my LG BD390 in sometime later this year).

Time Machine is working beautifully.

What do you recommend for simple backup solutions on Windows? Ideally, it would back up everything incrementally, similar to Time Machine, since there's plenty of space.

One of my purchased iPod games has started closing when I open it. If I delete it from the iTouch, will a sync bring it back?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I would try rebooting the iPod first.

Alas, I already did that.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Theo, yes - if you delete it, it'll come back when you sync again.
