Almost off-topic: I voted you up because I am also interested in knowing a little more about this and thought by voting you up other people would see there's more people interested in it. Then I realised points are hidden...

Read this in a funny way but I really hope I never get one project done with this, I am so bad at understanding family relations, I struggle to remember what a niece or nephew is, what's the relation name of my brother's wife, etc.

The details do matter. I know it's a cheap product so you can skip that but for more expensive products I don't think judging a book by its cover is wrong. If an expensive product can't have a really good cover than I wonder how lazy that c

It sure does. I'm just not sure about these factions, I mean Nokia has the resources to have two teams on two different operating systems without there being some sort of fight between them.

I believe you missed the point, this is to help users start interacting with the app, it's not on the homepage. So as someone visiting the site you would see if you like its idea or not and then, if you do, you would for instance try a demo

I guess it wouldn't be good marketing to say "hey, here's my new project done in PHP!" so even if you actually enjoy working with PHP you probably end up not talking much about it. I know that's what I do. I don't see it go away anytime soo

Don't forget the matte screen on the Samsung Series 9 laptops. And keep in mind the rumours about a refresh of the MBAs on the upcoming days/weeks with sandy bridge (thus i5?). Edit: And I forgot the screen resolution which is better on the

It's not even the fourth generation! So: iPhone, iPhone 3G (second generation) + 3GS, iPhone 4 (third generation). I really don't like when people say 4G because it's twice wrong but it's hard to blame those who do it.

I can't really answer your questions but I've been using Freedcamp for a month and I'm pretty happy with it. It can be slow sometimes or even down every once in a while but I still think it's a good deal.
