The L5 moniker "safety of life" is an accurate name. It will assist GPS aircraft navigation, especially during the safety-critical landing approaches. Aircraft rely heavily on both GPS and WAAS satellites for corrections. Actually, L5 has b

Yes, do you use OS X? I haven't found the issue to be as pronounced in the Windows versions.

In terms of freedom, T-Mobile was the only large carrier to oppose warrant-less wiretapping of Americans. In terms of cost, T-Mobile offered the best non-contract prices, and I could use my Nexus One or iPhone on their network for a reasona

The 13" Macbook Air has a 1440x900, the new Macbook Pro has a 1200x800 screen. The Air has a discrete NVIDIA GeForce 320M video card, the Pro has an integrated Intel card. Besides the CPU, why would I buy the Pro over the Air?
