You (would?) watch movies on that?

To clarify...I'm at the point where I want each piece of technology I "consume" to just do one freaking thing well. I've got too many crappy all-in-ones in my life that really bring life to the old saw: jack of all trades - master of none. I want my camera to take great pics. My MP3 player to play tunes to my every whim. My phone to....call people and not download viruses (um-hm) while checking my email, which is what my computer is for!! (Except the viruses part). Good god I want to watch TV and movies on my big screen at home, which is why I bought the thing, not on some stupid portable wee device.
I am officially done with gadgets and their...gadgetry. If Steve Jobs (or any others of his ilk) can invent a device that will clean my toilet, I'll worship him like the mac-kids do. Until then, he's just trying to get in my pockets and tell me what I "need."
