What I've hear is the tie-breaker that moves a lot of people to the ipad over the Galaxy is that the touchscreen on the ipad works so much better that there is no comparison. I've never used either so that is second-hand, but I have hear that repeatedly.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Maria, that is good to know! Thanks. I would LIKE an iPhone, but I will research T-Mobile smartphones now; I'm not wedded to it. I just need something that will let me be a bit more operational on the go for work related stuff...and, you know, life.

IIRC, B&N is going to be announcing their own tablet sometime this week, right?

“Not dead yet!”

Poking head in to ask for help in extracting video from a disc so it can be saved as a file for uploading. This isn't a commercial disc-- it's just the disc I had recorded at my ballroom dance competition. I've been trying to use VLC, but none of the streaming/saving formats are allowing me to open it. (I'm on a Mac, btw) Any suggestions?

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

“Not dead yet!”

Yeah, I'm at a complete loss. I'm so non-intuitive when it comes to this stuff. I've downloaded Handbrake- I'm flailing a bit, trying to figure out what next.

ETA Nebber mind. I somehow figured it out.
