High tech is full of acronyms. We get to where we recognize them after awhile, without necessarily knowing their technical details. How many know what wifi, edge, tdma, gsm , CDMA, wcdma, or umts stand for, just to name a few? How many know why Bluetooth was named Bluetooth? :). But we know how we use them, and which are better/faster, and that's what counts.

One of my favourite acronyms goes right back to the Stone Age in personal computing terms. The Sinclair ZX81 user manual mentioned the acronym TLA, which stands for, wait for it, three letter abbreviation. Apparently, even in those far-off days of 8-bit processors and 1 kilobyte memory, the acronym was already firmly established.

Exactly, I see it everyday, people have lost the art of writing, they cannot spell and most of the time I do not have clue with all the acronyms.. Have fun trying to figure it out though.

I think a lot of the errors come from accidents I don't know about you but I sometimes have trouble typing on such a small keyboard for I have the iPod touch and make many stupid mistakes with realizing it. I probably have made many mistakes in this very post...

Boo. I love my iPad 2 but I'll want the 3 so badly. I'll probably have to wait for the 4.

Very true, take no notice of me, I deal with poor spelling in the workplace and it causes mayhem..

Hi Lindsey, good to see you! Those kids treating you well?

I'd love a 3 from what I'm hearing, just can't justify it right now, my daughter is getting one though.
