If so, the answer is "no". Nobody else questions it, and nobody will. The response from her camp, of course, will be "They shouldn't have. We didn't do anything wrong. Nobody saw it, you can't prove a thing." I have to question whether Palin’s email was really hacked?

Are you asking yourself a question?

If so, the answer is “no”.

Nobody else questions it, and nobody will. The response from her camp, of course, will be “They shouldn’t have. We didn’t do anything wrong. Nobody saw it, you can’t prove a thing.”

Anybody could claim to be them. Even the Republicans or the scientologists. They'd love to discredit anonymous, with this. And then get some legislation passed banning the existence of all such groups from posting on the web (for reasons of national security, of course). I seriously doubt that Palin's inner most thoughts are that easy to get access to. Or that what's in any emails she writes, is truly what's going on in her head. It's probably just a fake front account, being run by an assistant. Like a publicist. And anything found there is easily denied. I have to question whether Palin’s email was really hacked?

Because obviously, this implies a lot of females are checking him out, and getting their PCes infected. And I suppose most of them don't know, or don't care, how to prevent this. Their geeky brother or father (or hubby) will fix their toy for them. Yeah, maybe it is sexist. But doesn't this Brad Pitt association say it all? It wasn't about Pamela Anderson fans.

It is much better than the other Java models such as RIM or Symbian (which really should be done in Carbide/C++). JCD is right, it will affect MS Mobile but won't touch the iPhone, RIM, and Nokia that much. The Valve buy is interesting - gaming is important. Expect the hype to pick back up again.
