    Commented on:   Cell Phone Use Linked to Male Infertility... Will you stop using it?
    There is no option for "Using more cell phones".

    I think only time will tell if cell phone is that harmful to our body.

    Commented on:   Will Steve Jobs stars in the next Mac commercial?
    Isn't the "No way" outcome the same as "result unknown by closing date"?!

    Anyways, I think the Microsoft commericial are not that funny. But a good atempt to win the heart of regular people like me.

    Commented on:   How many web browsers will you have on your computer by 2010?
    Exactly. Unless I am a web developer, I don't see the need to have more than 1 browser.

    A promotion isn't something that can happen every month. The chance is very slim.

    Commented on:   Will you make any charitable donation in September 2008?
    This a tough question. It reminds me how long it had been since I donated anything last time. I suppose donating my old clothes counts right?

    Commented on:   How many web browsers will you have on your computer by 2010?
    Why do I need more than 1. If a web site cannot even work with a browser that comes with a major OS, then I won't even bother visiting it.

    Commented on:   Cellphones Powered by Solor Energy by 2010?
    During the late 80's and early 90's, lots of gadgets were solar powered. Like calculators, watches, even desk lights. I wonder if solar power will become a new fashion trend.

    Sorry to say this. Clipping a mouse on top of the laptop is useful but ugly.

    Commented on:   Will you buy electronics from a vending machine in 2008?
    First of all, I don't see any fancy vending machines in my area. And second, I like playing with the electronics in my hand before I pay for it. So, this is not really for me. But what black-shoulder said about buying USB drive might work for me. They are cheap enough for me to buy in a vending machine.

    Commented on:   Will Google offer iTune type music store in China before 2010?
    Yes, it is possible. But I expect Apple to do it first. And Google is more likely to stick with the advertisement business model.
