   Review - CopyTrans Manager

   0.817 (Aug 24, 2009)

   Very nice music manager which works with the iPhone 3G/3GS (although you need to get at least v0.855). Allows me to add music from multiple computers, while iTunes will only let me sync from one. Free is also a very good price!

   Review - Allway Sync

   4.6.8 (Aug 1, 2006)

   E.T. - I agree that this should be labeled shareware as it has limitations, but if you go to the developers website they have this clearly explained right on the front of the page. Whoever added this to betanews is the one who screwed up and labeled it freeware.

   Review - Balloon Browser

   0.4.2 (Jun 27, 2006)

   actually, if they used a format such as gif or jpg rather then png they'd cut down in image size. If it isn't a decent sized image to show the actual application then its not even worth the little screenshot imo.

   Review - Picasa for Windows

   2.5.0 Build 32.01 Beta (Jun 21, 2006)

   takes my full directory structure and turns it into a flat view requiring me to label everything and categorize again. Not worth the trouble.

   Review - foobar2000

   0.9.2 Beta 5 (Jun 5, 2006)

   Really wish they would add a better synchronization tool so I can add new music to the library without it having to do a full rebuild of the library. Currently torn between using Foobar or using Musikcube. Cmon Foobar guys, make my choice easier!

6. Comment - McCain's 'Real Stimulus' to go head-to-head against FCC's 'net neutrality'

   0.9.2 Beta 5 (Oct 24, 2009 - 2:58 AM)

   Mccain trying to help us drop even lower on the list of countries that utilizes innovative technologies by telling corporations they get to police themselves at no risk of intervention! This means the big corporations set the rules.

7. Comment - Amazon launches the first third-party Xbox Live store

   0.9.2 Beta 5 (Apr 8, 2009 - 1:44 PM)

   Not sure of the value here, other than if I had an Amazon gift card I wanted to use on an XBLA game. Besides that scenario, this seems like nothing but an inconvenience of having to enter some code rather than clicking on Buy Now from Xbox Live directly.

8. Comment - TiVo Series 3 software update adds ads

   0.9.2 Beta 5 (Apr 7, 2009 - 12:36 PM)

   I haven't received this update yet on my TivoHD, but I really don't care about the addition of some "more info" option when I pause. I think people are confusing this with TiVo filling the screen with some irrelevant advertising to boost their revenue, which is not my understanding.

9. Comment - Psystar releases yet another 'Mac clone'

   0.9.2 Beta 5 (Mar 19, 2009 - 3:00 PM)

   Maybe there is something to this, otherwise I would have figured by now Apple would have pushed out an update that identified if it was genuine Apple hardware or not and just locked down OSX if so. Didn't expect Psystar to still be breathing.

10. Comment - Discovery says it thought of the Kindle first, wants royalites

    0.9.2 Beta 5 (Mar 17, 2009 - 7:20 PM)

    So basically they squatted on the idea knowing somebody would come up with it that they could then sue after it was successful. Love the patent system!
