Does your computer not accept cookies? That's what Google is reading, not ads.

It does. Is there another step I need to take after I click that link?

    On Windows it sounds like iTunes is staying.  On Mac, the app is splitting into three (podcasts, music, TV).  Based on what I'm reading, the store will still exist for music and video and will be acce

Just scroll down to "Your demographics". But if you're not accepting cookies from anywhere, then the Google can't read where you've been and guess your demographics based on that.

So does anyone know when ICS is coming to the Razr (Verizon)?

 

Syncing Google contacts on the iPad isn't self-explanatory at all. And it comes with stock Android devices, but I just want basic Google talk on the iPad and I can't find one, all these paid apps. Yeah no... see, Google is free. f*** you mean PAY?

I downloaded Google talk for my iPad..I think I had to pay $2 for it, which is ridiculous. I'm not sure which I downloaded because I am at work, but if you just read the reviews, you should be able to find one that works well.

I found some free app, I forget the name of it, but it does basic Google chat w/video and s***.

So I've had this iPad for a few days now and I'm showing absolutely no signs of morphing into a pretentious douche. So it is possible after all.

But accurate.

I've always used the phrase "pretentious douche" to refer to appleheads.

Lol. You don't really act like it. In this thread you just sound like a guy who likes cool toys.

 

Edit: yes it's an iPad 2

No, thanks for checking in though, sorry to force you to write on that. Could still happen in future, but family fooled me.

I have the Nook Tablet. Love.

Rooted the Nook Tablet for side-loading of applications.

 

It. Is. Awesome.

Well, Coke was supposed to have an interactive super bowl website set up through Facebook, with the Bears reacting as the game went on. Their app/website is completely down.

 

Fail for coke.

Amazon.com Inc. is dipping its toes into the physical world as the largest online retailer offers more products in stores that may benefit from hands-on interaction with shoppers.

 

Analysts said the move may be inspired by the success of Apple Inc. , which has hundreds of its own glitzy stores to show of iPhones, iPads and other gadgets and accessories.

 

Quidsi, an online retailer Amazon acquired in 2010, opened its first retail store in Manhasset, New York, last year to sell expensive cosmetics and perfumes under the BeautyBar name.

 

Amazon also plans to open a physical store in its home town of Seattle in coming months to showcase and sell its growing line of gadgets, including the Kindle Fire tablet, industry blog Good E-Reader reported this weekend.

 

At a conference in late 2011 run by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, some industry players hinted that Amazon might launch a retail store presence like Apple to let consumers test its gadgets, according to Cowen & Co. analyst Jim Friedland.

 

“The primary goal of the test is to determine if a physical retail presence can accelerate sales of Kindle devices and follow-on consumption of digital content at an attractive return on invested capital,” Friedland wrote in a note to investors on Monday. An Amazon spokeswoman declined to comment.

Heh, installed an alternate keyboard (Swiftkey tablet) on the Nook Tablet. It's pretty much customized exactly how I want now.

 

Nice keyboard for tablet since I'm a thumb typist.

What do you call that Nook tablet of yours? ;)

LOL, well, that wasn't a screen shot from MY device, just an example of the keyboard.

 

But "girrlkitty" would be a pretty sweet name.
