It wasn't melted after it was removed lol

It was removed because the key no longer registered a click. So it was taken off so that the button under the key could be used instead... 000 ))))) like that.

hehe ;) Definitely take that baby back and get the store to figure out wtf happened. If it's either the optical drive or the subwoofer, my minimal knowledge of heat generation in electronics leads me to believe that those shouldn't be generating that much heat except from friction in in the drive or a short in the subwoofer.

Android Market's reliance on Google Checkout makes life hard for developers who want to get paid.

The choices aren't based on sales but other factors such as innovation, features, ease of use etc. How much they have changed the game as it were.

If Apple markets a Netbook-type appliance the way it knows how, developers will jump on board. That's just how it works.
