- like people who work in finance take buses, right. -- nm - znufrii Sep 11, 13:12 1

      - Non-story: Striking teachers hear the governor was at a library, went there. - ty97 Sep 11, 13:10 4
        
        And they immediately left when they found out? - spamlet Sep 11, 13:12 3
        
        When did they find out? - ty97 Sep 11, 13:12 2
        
        Also, how much thought does it take to assume that if the Governor is at an event on the morning of 9/11 that it might just be a memorial event? - spamlet Sep 11, 13:21 1
        
        At a library? I would assume it had nothing to do with 9/11. - ty97 Sep 11, 13:26
      - yeah, they are kind of coming off as spoilet brats in this whole thing IMO. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 11, 13:09 2
        
        not according to polls -- nm - ty97 Sep 11, 13:11 1
        
        well, I conducted no polls, which is why I said IMO. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 11, 13:24
- truly, it would be awesome if they just fired all the striking teachers and brought in the replacement refs. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 11, 13:06

- same as oblique with the new iPod touch. - spamlet Sep 11, 13:08 8

    - When? This is the fall event. If it is coming out before Christmas, it's coming tomorrow. -- nm - spamlet Sep 11, 13:11 5
      - This is the iphone event. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 11, 13:11 4
        
        Until Apple diverts from the schedule that -- nm - spamlet Sep 11, 13:12 2
        
        has been constant for a decade, I'm not going to bet on that. -- nm - spamlet Sep 11, 13:12 1
        
        I thought I had read that they were doing an October event for ipad mini. -- nm - pmb Sep 11, 13:16
        
        It can be both -- nm - ty97 Sep 11, 13:12
    - I agree, I don't think we see a mini-iPad tomorrow -- nm - oblique Sep 11, 13:09

- iPhone 5: LTE, NFC, mini-dock, upgraded specs - oblique Sep 11, 13:04 3
  - I'm not so sure about the NFC. On the lesser side of things, I hope they increase storage again, and improve the front camera. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 11, 13:06 2
    - Apple is all about software innovation now with the iPhone. Skipping NFC in this round does open the door for Samsung/Android to do it better - oblique Sep 11, 13:09 1
      - perhaps, but apple also likes to do it right and it's still a very young technology. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 11, 13:10
- more crap -- nm - Spawn Sep 11, 13:03
