    What is "Banc of America

    Why do I keep seeing this Banc of America with a 'c' as opposed to a 'k'? Two different companies?

    Re: "Banc of America"

    From the text at the bottom of this web page it looks like it might be a subsidiary of Bank of America.

    Why It's "Banc"

    KoolKid1976: I asked this very question once sitting in a BofA. The answer is simply that while, yes, they are the same basic company, because "Banc of America" handles investments and whatnot, some Federal Agency doesn't allow a Bank and an investment firm to have the same name, so BofA had that creative solution. I'm sure if you Google it you'll find more.

    Yeah Right!

    I come from the future, where the new iPod is being renamed iBrain. It is now fused to your brain and you can upload 2 tbs of songs and movies.

    Though the last update I did, messed up my reasoning among other things.

    So stay away from any "firmware" updates for the iBrain. Some out there are false updates to make you go over to Windows 2050. They mess with your mind man!!

    PS. the new bluetooth (now mind meld) is awesome in these new iBrains, finally I can talk telepathically! And steal I mean borrow music form my class mates!

    PPS. Oh and stay away from Star Wars 8 I sucks big time!

    Bluetooth Shmootooth

    Isn't the Motorola iPod w/Bluetooth likely a reference to the much-rumored Motorola cell phone with iTunes support? Otherwise this doesn't sound like much of anything interesting.
