Microsoft is trying to defend a way of thinking
that's indefensible. Updating files without user

The California legislature recently banned employers from mandating RFID implants for their employees. Why isn�t this a Federal ban? No one should implant a device to get a job. Keep the devices, but lose the mandates.

- Apple iPod Nano (third generation, 8GB) Full Review �
-
- The good: The third-generation iPod Nano offers crisp, bright video playback, an exceptionally thin all-metal body, above-average battery life, built-in games, and an advanced user interface. The bad: We're not crazy about the wider body, the smaller scroll wheel, the lack of video output, and the average-sounding audio quality.. The bottom line: The shape may have changed, but Apple's relentless attention to detail remains. The third generation of the iPod Nano provides loads of entertainment for a down-to-earth price.
