    This will likely disappear soon, so I included a screenshot. http://www.verizonwireless.com/droid-does/[^] Oh, it's already gone, except on mine because I've had it open all day. http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/Uploads/2587207/DroidCountdown.png[^]

      But is it accurate? As a developer you should appreciate knowing that the event will start in negative 3 hours. You should understand what that means. :-\

      There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

        It's confusing to have a negative sign for each number place; there should be one at the beginning.

            I was just watching it count down some more -- 00 doesn't have a negative sign.
