Updates from the land of broadband, part 2

Just some quick notes (and sorry for the super-long posts recently — I gots time on my hands).

Korea is:

• Fast broadband, and without filters! I can now torrent all those legal HD movie trailers I’ve been aching to see!
• Awesome because of DMB — Digital Multimedia Broadcasting. I watched TV on the long car ride from Ilsan to Ewha Womans University on a cell phone. It was free over the air, not through some stupid data plan.
• Easy because you don’t really tip anyone.
• Way, way, better delivery food than the United States. You can get almost anything delivered, plus you don’t pay extra for the convenience. Mind blowing. Bonus: your order will probably be delivered by a dude wildly driving a moped carrying a large tin box with your food in it! Bonus+: Your food often comes on real plates with real silverware. Bonus++: Just put the plates outside your door and the random driver dude will come pick them up!
• Gadget land. Not just the little ones that Gizmodo and Engadget are always drooling over, but even their refrigerators are cooler. Check these pictures out. A simple door-in-a-door to put your beverages. Keeps them accessible without opening the whole door. Awesome!
  
• I sat on a heated toilet seat in a public restroom. ‘Nuff said.
