I'd be happy if they could just release the hardware they've been hyping the bejeesus out of. You can't get a Wii Fit for love or threats of murder in the UK.

I live in a major city and the local large game chain stores in the city centre get two a week, which goes to first come first served.

I'm about another week of asking the assistants (who won't take pre-orders) if they have one yet before I sell my entire Nintendo setup.

Very poor customer service, Nintendo.

Considering the closed and crippled DRM platform that is the iPhone, I won't be getting one of these superphones until Apple allow me to do what I want on my property.

But of course, that's not how they see the iPhone is it? It's just a product channel and they can't have any free competition hurting their monopoly can they?

My iMac and Macbook (both less than 6 months old) run whatever I want just fine thanks.

The iPhone is an overpriced turd. A well-polished turd, but a turd all the same.

Just another reason why I will only use providers that I can cancel with a month's notice and move on.

I don't believe they will ever grow up enough to encourage me back as a customer.

If anyone threatens me or my family I consider them an enemy, not someone I would ever consider paying again.

I just wonder when the mainscream media and the sheeple will open their eyes too. Probably never.

I think they may be onto something here.

There is far too much negative news out there. It feels like a constant erosion of civil liberties, corporate strong-arming, illegal wars and governments riding roughshod over the people they are put there to serve.

If Google could find a way of including positive stories in it's headlines (and perhaps allowing them to take priority) it would certainly improve morale for many.

It's.... it's.... almost as if the powers that dictate the laws of this land are doing so to solve our housing crisis by persuading every right thinking individual to leave.

Not allowing you onto the aircraft is just the final kick in the face before you head off for good.

This is so enormously short-sighted I'm almost speechless.

This doesn't deter piracy. They'll just take the sounds from another source, possibly a line source and dub it back in. All this does for pirates is throw down a gauntlet of challenge.

And if they ever attempted this in the UK, where I regularly spend £15 a ticket for Gold Class seats not only would I complain the roof down until my money was refunded they certainly wouldn't be getting my custom again. I've already boycotted the music industry. If they want to make sure I never pay for "product" again, they are certainly proceeding with the right attitude.

Crippling your product to deter people who have no intention of paying is genius. This just hurts their real customers. Next, they'll be refusing entry to their customers because they might remember too much about the movie.

Who has the address of the think tank that generated this crap?

I could see a very real use for this for someone who is experiencing a recent bereavement. The loss of a long-term life partner is a space that is almost impossible to fill and something like this could help someone get a little comfort during hard times. Especially at bedtime when you feel completely alone.

It would of course require planning prior to the passing, but people do odder things when planning for their deaths.

It genuinely feels as if England is going down the tubes. Every day another ridiculous law is passed that infringes on the liberties that we just assume are still there.

Sadly, the populace is happy to sleep-walk into an Orwellian reality. So long as they keep their football and reality TV, they won't care.

No wonder 10% (and rising) of nationals born in the UK, leave each year.

Wouldn't it be useful if there was at least ONE programme on the many useless TV stations that we have that detailed just how many rights we have left to do the things we thought we always had the right to do?

Only found out last week that the penknife that I carry in my bag is so illegal it could get me prison-time. Millet's might sell them, but you can't use them outside the home. Go figure.
