   Review - Adobe Reader for Windows 2000/XP/Vista/2008

   9.1.2 (Jun 11, 2009)

   Again, this is an update to the current Adobe Reader and not a standalone version, so the title is misleading.

   Review - Adobe Reader for Windows 2000/XP/Vista/2008

   9.1.1 (May 26, 2009)

   This download is a security update for all languages of Adobe Reader 9; it is NOT a standalone full version of the application and requires a previous version of Read 9.x already installed on your system.
   
   For more information about the vulnerability, see http://www.adobe.com/sup...ulletins/apsb09-06.html

   Review - Adobe Reader for Windows 2000/XP/Vista/2008

   9.1 (Mar 10, 2009)

   Keir, which version did you install? Mine says 9.1.0.
   
   It's still a bloatware w/ Std installer at 26MB.

   Review - Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE)

   6 Update 11 (Dec 16, 2008)

   Bug remains if installed on Vista: Java Control Panel applet does not retain any customization to settings.
   
   and on a different note: why is Betanews posting this just now when it was released over a week ago?

   Review - RealPlayer for Windows

   11.0.0.477 (Nov 6, 2008)

   version 11.0.0.477?
   
   My current RealPlayer reports that it's version 11.0.5, so which is newer?

6. Comment - Snow Leopard and Windows 7 still can't crack the netbook problem

   11.0.0.477 (Nov 11, 2009 - 2:43 AM)

   "Funny, but if it has a DVD, then by definition it is NOT a Netbook."
   
   That's a fair assumption, but you do realize there is no official definition or standard defining a netbook must be w/o an optical drive, right?
   
   If a netbook with Intel Atom CPU and a built-in optical drive doesn't makes it a netbook, then what is it? Does a notebook (w/ a non-Atom category CPU) without an optical drive then make it a netbook? Besides, Asus (the company that started it all and coined the term "netbook") is among the companies that have scheduled or released netbooks (with Atom CPU) with optical drive built-in under the Eee PC banner.

   11.0.0.477 (Nov 10, 2009 - 7:47 PM)

   "(PS Have you seen a Netbook with a DVD player yet? Ya, they don't exist.)"
   
   They do exist, just not available where you are, probably.

8. Comment - Sprint announces its first Android device

   11.0.0.477 (Sep 3, 2009 - 8:24 PM)

   It's no surprise that it looks like the myTouch 3G or HTC Magic - the hardware is the same bar the camera (3.2M vs. 5M for Hero) and 3.5mm headphones jack, but personally I think it looks better. HTC Magic users will be getting the same Sense UI as an user upgrade in October, with all features and function available.

9. Comment - Sony Ericsson unveils Xperia X2

   11.0.0.477 (Sep 3, 2009 - 8:12 PM)

   Yes, and that's why I bought a HTC Touch Pro2 for $730 and it has a better keyboard :P

    "and ditched M2 in favor of MicroSD up to 16GB"
    
    compared to what?
    
    I hate to break this to you, but the X1 already supports MicroSD (16GB max)
