Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, thanks, -t. I'm interested to hear his evaluation.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

We have a 32" and would go bigger. To me it's not big enough for HDTV and Blu-Ray. You're paying for it but not seeing the details anyway.

TB, do you require an online reader?

Now that I think about it, no. I take it an "offline" reader would be like an email client? It downloads stuff. Cause, Yeah that would be better in some ways. Stuff does not get deleted until I delete it? An offline client would be fine if it works better than Google reader.

Our wings are not tired.

My problem is that I love large screens for movies, but I loathe huge tv shows. So I went for a 32" and it's perfect for me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ahh. You can get an addon for Firefox that will spoof the user agent. I haven't tried it, but here's one: [link]

I just installed this. It works great for Google Reader.

eta: This actually works better than using the mobile url for Reader that I mentioned earlier. With this add-on, Reader functions exactly like it does on my iPod Touch.

I'm thinking 42 (or 40 if I go with the samsung, which is where I'm leaning, because I tend to run electronics into the ground)

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

I got the cheapest 37" LCD I could find four years ago, and already the picture is starting to look splotchy.

Hey. New board.

We have a 32" and would go bigger. To me it's not big enough for HDTV and Blu-Ray.

Really? That's my size, and I can definitely tell a big difference between Blu-Rays and DVDs, and even more difference between SDTV and HDTV.

Of course, in my living room I'm never more than 6 feet from the TV, so much bigger would require me to be constantly moving my head from side to side. Yay NYC.

My experience as well.

Thanks! The Samsung isn't that much more expensive, but the choices are 40" and 52", a big difference.

Samsung makes 46" panels as well. The difference in viewable area between 40" and 42" isn't really all that much. I have a couple of 40" sets in the studio and they are quite nice.
