   I ordered mine today as well (also a current verizon customer). No T-Mobile coverage here, but AT&T has some reasonably new Go Phone plans. I'm doing the $60/m unlimited talk/text w/2gigs 3g/4g data and optio

   I agree, but a button or link somewhere (anywhere) would be nice. Instead I have to google to find out how to do it. I've bookmarked it now ;) (I believe it is /shipnow)

   I think you are right, I was able to purchase it a few minutes ago, I think they'll all be gone shortly though

   Paypal has one of the most broken UIs I've ever seen. Not only is it horribly dated it is completely inconsistent across all of their portals. As a web payments pro member, developer, standard user there is a huge break down in consi

   Absolutely agree with all of that. Parentheses was my biggest hurdle in learning Knockout. Refactoring is a bit of a challenge also if you go from unobservable -> observable because of all of the parentheses.

    A few random comments: 2) This certainly can get messy in my experience, a complex nested viewmodel is nasty to selectively create observables. I haven't figured a clean way to do this. 3)I found binding handlers in the beginning to b

    I'm a big fan of knockout. Learned it about a year ago and it has saved me from writing a lot of code. I can't see going back to the old way at this point. It doesn't try to be everything, but what it does, it does well.

    It appears to me they have underpriced their servers to the point they can't offset the ratio of existing customers upgrading servers. Seems like they should implement longer term contracts if they want to keep offering these rock bot

    I share a similar opinion. I compare every host I deal with to Rackspace. I have dealt with them from early on 6+ years ago with their dedicated servers and mail. Their support is the real deal and if you need a managed service level I w

    I love 4G/LTE and my Galaxy Nexus, but I'm seriously considering getting a nexus 5 and straight talk. I have semi decent coverage in my area.

    I had almost a year worth of normal income stashed away. Plus my wife's income was also coming in. To be honest that was a really conservative move and not really required. I made a pretty comfortable amount plus had some pretty lar

    LinkedIn has been a great way for me to build clients and put myself out there. I routinely get inquiries from my portfolio. I just recently landed a new client through LinkedIn. I'll keep it for now.

    C#, Linq, MVC, Web Api, reasons I still use the platform. I did web forms for a few years and there is no way I would be using it today. Thankfully MVC came around.
