Mindless Ramblings of The Cool Ones

[kasseen]

I've yet to be impressed by the iPad. It still seems just like a bigger iPhone/iPod and thus no need for me to buy just for the bigger screen. I've been dying a little on the inside with the glut of tablets that has been released thus far. In that, I've wanted to jump up and run out and buy one of these Android tablets for some time now, but they are just now starting to have features that I actually want. USB ports/hosting for instance, and mostly they've barely been getting this right. I fail to see what the big deal is.

I want a tablet for productivity in my workplace/on sets. Not to sit around playing games, twatting (twitter), or facebitch (book). lol I want to be able to pull up my images from my camera and review on a bigger/portable screen, I use DSLR so it's Compact Flash not SD. I wouldn't even mind first putting images on laptop and then onto usb to view on tablet. They just keep dumbing down these awesome tablets to be casual consumer experiences instead of focusing on the awesome business potentials. At this rate, Microsoft will have the ultimate tablet I want, but I'm still holding out for Android as I really do like what they've been coming out with, just can't justify the price when I still can't use it practically on set.

yea i feel you completely! An your right An Ipad is basically just an big screen Iphone....But yea A multi ported tablet would be awesome to use for shoots to quickly review images on set....an iv seen some good android ones that im extremely tempted to get, like the Samsung Galaxy, Toshiba Thrive, or the Motorola Zoom, all seem like pretty damn good tablet choices.

I got a idea Remy that could work with what your trying to do with reviewing images on any tablet without a usb port.....You could just buy a wireless compact flash card for your DSLR to wirelessly send the pics you take to your PC automatically, then download a streaming program on your tablet, such as StreamToMe or VLC Streamer to instantly view them from your PC on your tablet.... It should work theoretically!

BTW Since were on the topic of Apple...RIP Steve Jobs...

I have been trying to give the wireless CF cards a little more time to develop as it's fairly new compared to the SD wireless cards.

Yes indeed, RIP Steve Jobs

Understandable, I collect shows for archiving and love to watch them in marathon format as well!

Me too!! Sadly, I just started watching this show this season so will enjoy going back through the previous seasons to get caught up. Will have to go out and find the box sets.

***Spoiler Alert****

I didn't see it as Walt doing that, despite seeing the plant at the very end. Seemed more like Jesse backed Walt into the corner and Walt came up with the most logical explanation for why the kid was poisoned. After all the damn cigarette was missing. Maybe I need to go watch the last two episodes again. I mean, what you are basically saying then is that Walt actually did poison the kid right? I don't think that's what happen, the kid tried the berries and got sick. Jesse came at Walt waving the gun making wild assumptions and Walt said what he thought happen on the spur of the moment. Walt mind was a bit fractured at this time with everything going on, the maniacal laughter in the crawl space at the end of the third to last episode shows that. I don't think Walt had the wherewithal to go so far and poison the kid or really plot out that specific series of events. Walt was thinking big, i.e. explosives after the poison in cigarette bit failed.

Im with Kasseen on Walt manipulating that whole situation. Walt got the ricen or risen, however you spell it, from Jesse in the Meth Lab when he asked for a cig. Thats when he took the poisoned one, flipped it and lit it up. Then before the whole Brock poisoning part where Walt is sitting by the pool spinning the gun on the table, on the last spin it points at the same flower pot from the end of the finale episode.

As for how he poisoned Brock, I got no clue how he would get close to him so maybe Saul was involved with that. Ill leave that for season 5.

And yea Remy watch em all, its been on fuckin point since the beginning

Yea, I dont know exactly how he poisoned him yet, as they'll probably explain that in the next season,(either Saul, or the night before the finally when he visited Jesse at his girls house) but he had to as all the evidence suggest so....
I believe Walt basically planed his move out to get Jesse back an turn him back on Gus by playing off his emotions (known issues between Jessie an Gus about killing kids) and by using unknown science to Jessie 2 trick him by using the non lethal plant poison and making Jesse think it was the lethal risen instead....
Thats my best solid theory....

Yea Exactily!!!! i waz going to go into major detail to break it down 4 remy after i rewatched them this weekend but drunkmonkey pretty much jus summed my words up completely!

Basically Gus an Walt were secretly playing a real life game of chess an they were both using jessie as a pawn in order to kill each other, an win their "game".
b/c just a as Walt said at the end talking to his wife..."I Won" an indeed he did

[Ms Remy M]

Well explained you two, that all seems to make sense to me. I do remember the bit about the flower and gun so I'm with ya'll.

This is probably too low-brow for this section of the forum, but anyone excited about the Avengers movie? http://www.reelz.com/movie/262408/the-avengers/
