The Sony - Mylo is one of many devices that will force the phone companies to rethink their approach-- just as the widespread acceptance of digital cameras forced Kodak to rethink theirs.

Amazon has done it again-- on the page for Amazon.com: Omnivore's Dilemma: Books they have placed an interview with the author, Michael Pollan. Teetering on the edge of buying yet another food book, the engaging arguments in the video tip me over.
