The IBoob will cost $499 or $599 depending on size.

This is considered to be a major breakthrough because women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

The first iPod with a color screen, I can scroll through my 5000 songs buttery smooth. But I was playing with the new iPod Classic, and while it is thinner, has a bigger screen and more "eye-candy," there is no chance I'll trade my old reliable iPod for the new one. I was using the scroll wheel in the Apple Store and it was so jerky. I guess the difference is that now Apple has to sell an 80GB iPod with a color screen for $250, whereas when I bought my comparable (for the time) iPod they were selling for $450. Gotta cut down that margin somewhere, I think the new iPods are simply built cutting every corner possible. Good business move for Apple.</p> I have an iPod Color.

I believe our dear ol’ Coyote has been a MMORPG player at some point.

“Nerfing” is when a particular ability or feature of a type of character in a MMORPG has been toned-down or removed in order to make the game play more fair. In otherwords, their awesomely powerful ability is replaced with a Nerf(tm) version of the same ability.
