Talking Taco Bell/Amazon/Handheld commercial!

I just got broadband internet hooked up ! Also, cabletv...

On said TV, i just saw a commercial starring the CEO of Amazon, asking everybody to find him the "Newest and coolest" "handheld."

...the best "handheld" was their new quesadilla...

..twas funny..

I haven't seen that one yet but did see a Visor (a Prism, I think) on a CDW commercial aired last night on CNN. It was those famous ridges on the casing alonside the screen that gave it away.

I just got my cable modem hooked up last tuesday (hard to be excited about broadband on such a terrible day) and was able to download a 107MB file (TacOps 2) in under 7 min.

Eeep..an outsider...Use WinMX, it can search Video (AVI, Quicktime, mpeg, mpg, etc.) or MP3 and images. It's at winmx.com, and is pretty self-explanatory.

You know your company is in trouble

When I saw that commercial my thought was: How do you know when you company is in real trouble? When the CEO has to do Taco Bell commercials to supplement his income. I sold my Amazon stock the day I saw that commerical.

Bah. It's not so much about amazon as it is about Bezos trying to regain his golden boy image.
