I have read a little on Apple's unveiling of the Ipad and I still can't tell if it lets you use it as an art tablet. I have a feeling its a no since that wasn't touted. The wife and I were both really hoping it would work like a Wacom tablet. While I love all things Apple, I am not interested in the Ipad unless it can do that, I would rather pay $400 more and get a macbook, or $200 less and get a cheap Wacom tablet. Oh well, time to move on (even though it probably means getting the wife something windows based, Windows 7 sounds ok so maybe it wont make me frustrated as much).

On another point, this comic from XKCD made me a little sad.

On January 26th, 2274 Mars days into the mission, NASA declared Spirit a 'stationary research station', expected to stay operational for several more months until the dust buildup on its solar panels forces a final shutdown.

Poor, deluded Rover. Maybe we'll visit it in 2430 when we get a manned mission to Mars after Earth has been destroyed.

Most of the time when they say something has shut down, what they mean is "gone black". As in... secret.........

Mars has secrets they won't tell us about. /public-announcement
