Well, I called up Kindle, and since I'm not trying to lie, admitted it got wet. They said they could send me a replacement for $72, so I agreed. Sigh. Stupidity tax, I guess--and I'm about to go order a waterproof cover, too!!!

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

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

does anyone have the Boxee Box? It is intriguing. But the Amazon reviews seem to point that the actual box software doesn't do all the things the software on your computer can do. Most strange. Notably Hulu and Netflix. Not sure if that is stupid people, or if that is fact. But tempted by the prospect!

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

IIRC, the Boxee people have been having trouble with Hulu since forever - they just don't want people having access to their content on anything other than a computer screen.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I've been hoping that TiVO would get access to Hulu, but that doesn't seem to be on the horizon.

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

There are lots of devices that let you watch Hulu Plus on your TV, though: [link]

Has Hulu Plus improved since it was first launched? I remember most of the initial reaction being "Hey, there's LESS CONTENT HERE than on the free version! WTF???" and so haven't bothered to check it out.

Sigh. So I didn't want to add another account, but could someone share a dreamwidth code with me? Email is username.1 at gmail. ETA: THANKS! Done.

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

Gotcha, sarameg

Taken care of, thanks! eta: same name there, for those who want to know.
