@5, Korean companies have been pushing tactile feedback glass for a few years now. Samsung has been the biggest adopter of the feedback tech for touchscreens. Apple may catch up with iPhone 2.5 or 3.0, but it would add more cost. It would take another big drop in memory prices to enable it without cutting margins. Probably at least six months, more like a year.

This would be a shame, because I recently found WMWifiRouter, a nice little program that binds Sprint's 3G connection and re-broadcasts it out to wireless clients using the phone's WiFi. I regularly get 1700/800 on the phone network, which is ironically way faster than my DSL landline. Sprint's amazingly fast network lets me use Orb to stream videos and music from home, and stuff like Skype/fring or MS Portrait to do VOIP, both audio-only and visual. Whatever @dssstrkl likes to believe, some of the Sprint PDA phones are little techno miracles (thanks, HTC), but a lot of that hinges on an amazingly fast, unfettered and unmetered network.

I set up my first 1TB hardware RAID array in 2002, in a tower-case PC box. It's still running 24x7, although to date just over 50% of the dirt-cheap IDE drives have failed and been replaced. However, since that time I've chained various enclosures to the box, ranging from non-name $20 USB boxes to pricey on-brand firewire and NAS boxes, config'd as software RAID. Almost without exception, within 2-4 years of always-on, the non-PC case boxes have failed, either through bad fans or dodgy PSUs. Some within warranty, some without. Always basically impossible to repair, leaving only replacement. The cases fail more frequently than their contained drives. Meanwhile, the tower PC's PSU ticks along, and I know I can replace that at any time. If I've learned anything from this, it's to go with commodity, interchangeable hardware. Your expensive system is only as reliable as the cheapest fan. If power consumption is a factor, install a mini-ITX or similar low-power board.
