"In a nod to the iPhone’s color scheme, the new iBeetle can be ordered in “Candy White”, “Oryx White Mother of Pearl Effect”, “Black Monochrome”, “Deep Black Pearl Effect”, “Platinum Grey”, or “Reflex Silver”."

So yeah, black or white.

Re: And for the Gamers out There:

No, I personally didn't pay $90 for that game, I found it funny because I have several friends who did, I've always maintained that Battlefield was a better series, especially considering its "only" $50 for BF3.

If the Call Of Duty series was priced fairly I'd happily by their games, they're fun, but at $90 it's ridiculous. It's like paying $25 for Infinity Blade on IOS, still a fun game, but not at that price.

Re: LOL

"b) you are stupid enough to believe that a phone that only supports HTML applets is going to somehow rock your world. (despite the fact it's trivial to make HTML5 apps already in iOS and Android by wrapping a webkit control in a app container)."

I dont know about Android, but iOS has 2 JS engines, one for Safari and apple apps, and another for HTML web apps and third party apps that runs at half the speed, and as you can't use another rendering engine this limits we apps to being just websites.

Re: Hmm

I could be mistaken, but there are only a handful of different cameras in the Xperia E series, where as there are many different carriers to sort out, wifi and bluetooth definitely should've been sorted out thou, but cellular networks are a whole different ball game.

Re: High Hopes

I also hope, and believe, that mozilla's OS will go well. I know I mentioned C, but my mother tounge is HTML. And I would love to have an OS that is as tinker friendly as Mozilla is suggesting.

P.S Have an up vote for not being a dick and replying with a real argument, not the usual commentard crap.

Re: Wow

@Obviously you either misread my post or are very technically narrow minded.

"Mines the one NOT made by Samsung"

You see, I believe you've mistaken "Samsung" for android. In fact, I believe you've mistaken Samsung for EVERY PHONE other than iOS. If I may point out to you, Samsung is but one of many android OEM's. Heck, we could sit here and spend quite some time rattling off a list of all the different manufacturers, but I can't be bothered. Suffice to say, you've made a massive assumption that I use an iPhone. And that's a bit silly.

I am in no way stating android is inferior to iOS (let's just not go there) or any other OS, I'm simply stating I'm not going to picking up the shit Samsung's flinging.

Re: Here's a fun question for you

@stranger I believe you'll find 2 is the only even prime, and its the second number in your equation there. So I'd say 3 is out.

I think I might be taking this a but too seriously... 3 posts already

Re: Here's a fun question for you

I'm not sure if you mean whole positive number or a negative number, if so, this debate could go on for quite a long time....

Very well stated sir, censoring the problem is not the answer, all that does is leave them unprepared for that one time safesearch isn't on....

Re: Parents are the problem

Agreed, if for the children, at least do it for the sake of your bandwidth.

Child + YouTube = no more bandwidth, just a black hole where your quota was...

YES! The movie could be called "The Hunt For The Red October Exploit"

Re: Matt Bryant

Wow, matt you've really outdone yourself. If it weren't bad enough that you are clearly a gun nut who's smeared this article with your insanities you also, coincidently or maybe your parents planned your childhood so you'd become a spree killer, share almost the exact same name as Martin Bryant, the sole reason Australia has gun control laws that stop wackos and nutters like you and Martin from destroying the hole bloody place. 35 people dead, 35! Children, mothers, fathers even the frickin elderly. Yeah I'm happy for Americans to have guns, just not Americans like you. Police officers, army troops, people who are not just properly trained, but also clearly identify themselves as people who carry guns.

It's truly amazing to even fathom that people like you still exist today, I'd hoped that evoluti- oh wait, why would I mention evolution to a gun toting American, sorry "god" would have gotten rid of the imperfections that turn what would be an amazing planet of people into a self murdering hole.

Really, just take your 2nd amendment and shove it up your 2nd ass of a mouth. Just be careful, I hope your expensive shinny rifle doesn't misfire and blow your brains out, oh how that would be a shame.

Re: From personal experience

Instead, surely we could just take the second amendment literally, "the right to bear arms". Ok here's a bear arm, hell you can have 2.

Re: but the only place where regular mass shootings occur...

"When I've been in countries that have gun ownership (like the US, Canada, Switzerland) I always ask people why they have a gun. Normally the answer is because it's a legal requirement (Switzerland) or they use it for hunting or sometimes it's for protection.

But when I ask the same question to an American they nearly always go misty eyed and explain some scenario where they come across a shooting in progress (usually in a shopping mall or schoolyard) and they are able to save the day by whipping out their concealed weapon and gunning down the shooter.

I'm not really against gun ownership EXCEPT in the US."

From my experience with gun owners in oz, the only reasons I've ever heard for guns have been

A) I'm a farmer

Or

B) I'm a cop or similar public guard

Your statement is to true my friend, too true...

Re: Battleship?

Game or film, there is only 1 correct answer.....

Re: Battleship?

I could not agree with a post more. The seen towards the end when they fire up the battleship Missouri and the veterans help them..... god help us

Re: Hawkeye

Agreed, it's rather depressing to think Aquaman is more memorable than Hawkeye...

Re: Circular reasoning?

I believe heels became sexy round the same time London was flooding with shit and other undesirables on roads during the 1800's. They were practacle back then to keep crap from tarnishing your dress. Rich women wore them, people wanted to be rich or be with rich people.

Of course I could be completely batshit wrong about this. Here's a Wikipedia article for those interested enough to keep reading, but not interested enough to find material on the subject.

Re: sad to see them die

And no f*cks were given....

I got a relative of mine a $400 netbook, it performed worse than the iPhone of that same year and had a white line across the screen. While my $480 laptop which only weighed slightly more still runs crysis well and has the advantage of not needing to carry 4 peripherals to make it useable.

Either that or just eat more bran, this white turds would have more figure that way.

Re: Keep well away from aeroplanes

"Hmmm... aeroplanes ... brittle and crushable ... "no sir, that's no explosive device in my luggage, just my 100 m headphone cable.""

My god, you would have nearly a kilometre of stretched cable, what on earth could you possibly do with that much cable!

Re: Resistance is futile + 3rd effect

Ignoring the statement in the article about possible applications in wearable computing, I could imagine this as a very useful temporary wire. Imagine your setting up a concert, a jack cable snaps and the replacement(which you should have anyway) is missing, whip out your elastic wire which is nice and stretchy, allowing it to fit many uses.

Oh god, not my orientation!
