Our wings are not tired.

Looks like they both have 4 HDMI inputs, so I don't think that's the difference (I didn't look through the rest of the description).

We have one LCD with LED backlighting and there is a difference. Mainly it is in the contrast ratio. With LED backlighting the black level on the panel is excellent. Without it even a total blackout can have a bit if a grey tinge to it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Correct. It does simple alert and alarm tones only.

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

Huh, and apparently I haven't had this phone as long as I thought - my contract isn't up for renewal until September. No new phone for me next week after all!

AT&T Moves Up iPhone Upgrade Eligibility On Eve of WWDC Keynote

AT&T seems to have adjusted user eligibility requirements forward for many customers. This means that several readers who previously were ineligible to purchase a new subsidized iPhone now find that they are eligible. Previously, dates for eligibility ranged from June to November depending on your rate plan.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oooh! Thanks, Tom - looks like I'm eligible after all.

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

Yep, I've been bumped up too. CURSE YOU, APPLE, WITH YOUR TEMPTING AND YOUR EVIL AND YOUR TEMPTING!
