It was actually worse than that. At about 0730 the line referred to above on the BBC said "The overall death toll has now risen to etc etc" . So you had: Nuclear; Nuclear; Nuclear; Death Toll; Nuclear; Nuclear etc with the quake and tsuami not mentioned until half way down the page. I was so amazed at the transparency of the agenda being pedalled (or the incompetence; you decide) that I took a screenshot thinking it would probably change during the course of the day.
The firmware glitches and annoying problems will be no suprise to anyone who has had the misfortune of paying for a Iomega consumer NAS device recently. Just check the user forums of the Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive: device bricking firmware updates, clunky software, unpredictable performance, an administrator log on screen that can be bypassed by pressing enter a few times....
Wouldn't touch Iomega again with a bargepole.
