Master documents sounds like what I need. And yes to backup because everyone says they become readily corrupted.

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

Steve Jobs biggest flops. I seem to have completely missed the shuffle without buttons. And the first gen Apple TV. How many gens were there? Is the current streaming only one gen three? I think I have two.

The current Apple TV is the second generation.

Then they're wrong about the first generation. I have one, and I can rent and buy TV on it. It's a strange product, and I don't see the ultimate point, but I wouldn't buy shows on iTunes without it. I like being able to watch them on my 46" TV.

Yes, bury it in rice. I'd even move the rice around once a day or so. Or swap it. You are trying to use the moisture sucking properties of the rice to steal the moisture hiding in your iPod.

Will also do this. I needed to anyway, I think, as I only had Minute Rice yesterday and I want to replace it with the real deal in case the cooked/dehydrated nature of Minute Rice makes it insufficiently dessicant-y.

Thanks.

I also have a first generation and they are referring to the way it was originally released. It ended up getting software updates that added all the functionality that they say it doesn't have.

TB,

btw, I wonder if you couldn't just put everything in one document. how many pages is your doc? Word can handle larger files now and you might not need the madness of master documents.

Who has a favorite ipad browser? I used to like ichromy, but the last update frelled a bunch of things up. Opera mini is ok - is there. Way to turn off the swipey animation when it loads a new page?

What I want, mainly, is real tabs and the ability to choose "open in new tab" by holding down the link. And free would be nice too.

Atomic Web has real tabs. I like it for being able to open everything in a folder of bookmarks all in tabs. It crashes a lot, though, and I don't think you can open a link in a new tab without setting all links (or all links from different domains) to open in new tabs. Pretty sure it was free but I've had it a while.
