The Quest Continues for a Tablet PC - NYTimes.com: Pretty good article about the state of Tablet computers from the New York Times. In particular, I liked this:

“I can imagine something like the iPhone with a much bigger screen being a gorgeous device with great capacity, but I don’t know where I would fit that into my life,” said a former Apple executive, who declined to be named because of Apple’s secrecy policies, but who anticipates an Apple tablet next year. “Those are the debates that have been happening inside Apple for quite some time.”

A pretty accurate summary as to why we haven't seen an Apple tablet as of yet, and why we may not even see one next year.

Afterlife: Review of an unproduced Joss Whedon script from the 90's, which looks like it has been recycled into Dollhouse. What's interesting is this quote:

"I don’t think it’s a stretch at this point to declare that, simply put, Joss knows that people (characters) make the best stories. He understands relationships."

While I agree with the above quote, and it is typically something that Joss does well, I think that this is sorely lacking from Dolhouse. The lack of characters, and their relationships, is what is really frustrating me about Dollhouse. Who am I rooting for on this show? I think that Joss can potenitally pull this out. I hope.
