Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I have a Hd-DVD player. Oh well.

Hey. New board.

We use AT&T in Pasadena and get fantastic coverage. Was that before it took over Cingular, Gris?

My issue was actually with Cingular. To be fair, when I say "Pasadena" I probably really mean "On the Caltech campus." It was college and I didn't have a car.

The status is NOT quo.

Huh. I suspect that they've added cell towers, because I have gotten great coverage all over town, including around CalTech. Maybe it's something actually on the campus, some Real Genius forcefield or something!

Is there any way to save a YouTube video to my hard drive so I can watch it offline?

Once you've got the FLV file, I think VLC will play it.

I'm fed up with at&t wireless, and I'm thinking about switching cell service providers. Verizon and Sprint are out because I need to use my personal phone overseas, so that leaves me with T-Mobile.

If you're planning on being on the Eastern Shore at all, Verizon was pretty much the only thing that worked when I was there. I got T-Mobile since that worked best at my new place in SF and I essentially couldn't use my phone until I moved. However, T-Mobile has been great to have here in France.

there's also this, which allows you to rip just audio too.

Hey. New board.

I use a program called "TubeSock" to download YouTube vids on my Mac. It will let you convert the files into a format that iTunes/iPods can read as well. Pretty cool.
