For those who want to wait for the full, integrated-WiFi experience, Bug's not yet offering a set schedule for the "regular" base kit, but Hiro P goes on pre-sale at the Bug Labs store for the regular early adopter price this Monday.

I crossed such paths with one disputant keen, Whose history revealed a single art: Contention was his only routine scene, Each statement challenged from the very start. Some warriors yield when logic brings defeat, But he fought on with unrelenting might. If "skies are blue" should ...
