So I was able to convince the wife to let me finally get an iPad. The retina display sold me on taking the plunge. Also the dictation feature is very nice. I'm using it right now, actually. The screen really is incredible. I'm a stickler for visual clarity, and this one is definitely the best.

Messa back!

Even with the increased resolution, it is more powerful for heavy 3D games. I think once more games take advantage of the quad core graphics chip, you'll see it outshine the iPad 2. But the 2 is still an excellent device. Having this makes me want to get back into photography. I still have a $5 credit in iTunes right now. Deciding if I want to get iPhoto or a new game.

Meanwhile, in Antarctica...



It was pretty warm here in Vegas, too. We've been up and down the past few weeks. Hitting 80s one day, dropping back to upper 50s the next.

I mostly drink diet soda these days, but I usually keep some instant tea packs around. The kind you pour into the 20 oz water bottles. I prefer peach tea, but I get a mandarin orange one that's really good. And a raspberry tea.

Would be nice to see a full resolution image. Photobucket seemed to scale it down on you.

Full resolution is 2048x1536! But yeah, Photobucket has a limit to mobile uploads. I'll see if I can find an FTP app and upload to my domain instead n

If we'd all just agree to post the same amount of times per day, everyone would rank! But that'd probably be worse in terms of activity. Everyone would do 3-4 posts most likely.

You gotta do what you gotta do, but I think that schedule will get to you pretty quickly. Maybe see if one of those places can increase your hours eventually and drop back to 2 or 3?

Well, I couldn't find a free FTP program to use directly from my iPad. I just had to connect it to my PC and transfer the file manually. Linked due to enormous size.

I actually like coffee. But since you actually have to brew it, I prefer just to drink something straight out of the bottle. Although my parents have a instant coffee from a company called organic O'Gold. It's pretty good for instant coffee and it's good for you.

I like it when candy comes in yellow, purple, orange, blue, red and green because I have this weird thing where I enjoy eating candies with their complementary color.

I'm guessing you like skittles.

My brother used to watch hockey a long time ago. Back when Gretzky was still playing for the Kings. After he retired, my brother stopped watching. I never really got into it though. Although my brothers and I used to play street hockey all the time. We'd always use the line from Wayne's World, "Game off!" when a card would come by. And then "Game on!" when it passed.

Need a pick me up this morning, so drowsy. Nothing is working so far, wish I could take a quick cat nap.

Sega's Phantasy Star Online 2 won't cost you a dollar -- unless you'd like an item or two. Sega has announced that the upcoming sequel to the everyone's favorite "light" MMO, Phantasy Star Online, will roll with the standard MMO free-to-play model, and charge users for select item transactions from its in-game store. Also, an iOS and Android version has been confirmed. Both are slated to hit at some point in "winter 2012," according to Andriasang.

It goes on to say that the mobile version may not have the same gameplay as the PC/Vita versions, but that's fine with me. I enjoyed PSO on my Dreamcast, Gamecube, and PC. Can't wait for more information to be released.
