I’d rather have them with the TOS cast on them.

The reactions remind me some what of 1990 when TNG was to premier, some loved it and others thought it degraded the 60’s TOS version. I guess honest true views will not be valid for another five years, or at least until the next movie in 2 years.

When will a iPhone emulator come out so I can see it. I guess I’m old fashioned because I stopped liking MAC stuff back in 1980 when I bought an Atari 800 instead of a Apple II, because Atari made a better computer at the time and it went with my Atari 2600 game system and Star Raiders at the time was my 3D space war anti withdraw fix solution. At the time that 4K game was as good as todays Billion/Trillion byte games.

P.S. When is Nimoy going to be asked for his views on the Movie?\

Well, I don’t know how to photobucket this but it’s on the opening page of the weekly announcement. Then you click on it and it’s not there. It just takes you to a very pricey “Federation” phaser from the Enterprise series. But before that happens it says, and I quote:

Straight from the new motion picture, this electronic Starfleet phaser is constructed of vacuum-metalized plastic and makes authentic Star Trek movie sounds when the trigger is pressed.

$19.95
Coming Soon!

will they do one for TOS and not the movie?

I hope they do

Everyone seems to be forgetting the past 40 years of Trek due to this movie when it comes to cool stuff like this.

I hope to love the movie and am excited about it but can’t there be stuff from the five shows and previous 10 movies we do things like this with as well.

My Twitter skin is all set! http://twitter.com/El4short
Odd, though . . .the date looks like Aug. 5 instead of May 8. Hope that doesn’t confuse people.

Next we’ll get the phaser for my wife’s iPod touch. Too cool.

Tomorrow is going to be difficult. The leaks will be Tsunami-like and there will be nowhere to run.

One whole brutal month?! With all the piss-takers in Australia…

I’m going to have Space… Madness… by May.
