I have the Cr-48, and think it's great. The biggest use I see for it is in enterprise, since it would be so easy to set up a network of these (since the web is much more cross compatible than other things). Working in the cloud makes a big

The maps are always fine on subways and very useful. The maps on buses, however, are non-existent or for the wrong routes. In addition, there's very rarely an announcement for stops. I would use them much more if this were fixed, as it's so

100%. I had a friend in High School who liked to play Neopets (www.neopets.com). He would try out tons of old accounts with valuable pets on it, trying to see if they had guessable hotmail usernames. 1/10 times they did and he got the accou
