Yamaha and James Celebrate!
James and the entire L&M Racing crew were invited down to Yamaha Motor Corp. in Cypress, California on Wednesday to take part in a championship celebration with the entire Yamaha staff. From day one of joining his new team, James was immediately impressed with the family atmosphere that Yamaha creates around its racing program, and never was that made more obvious than on Wednesday afternoon, as the entire staff gathered on the lawn in front of the corporate headquarters to await his arrival and honor his incredible Supercross championship!
James and crew rolled into the Yamaha headquarters in style in this black stretched limo, and you can tell by the smile on his face just how flattered he truly was by the warm reception when he stepped out of the car.
Yamaha supplied all of its employees with white championship t-shirts and copies of James’ number one plate to wave throughout the presentation.
Perhaps the most memorable portion of the presentation was when longtime Yamaha racer and champion, Doug Henry, surprised James with a heartfelt congratulatory speech. Doug is a Yamaha legend, and is the man largely responsible for the development of Yamaha’s four-stroke motocross racing program. Not only did he help with the R&D of the machine in the late ‘90s, in 1997, Doug made history when he won in Las Vegas, marking the first time ever that a four-stroke motorcycle won an AMA Supercross!
In addition to the many kind words, Doug also presented James with the ultimate championship trophy of them all—his 2009 championship-winning YZ450F race bike! “This one will stand in a very special place amongst my collection,” James said. “This bike represents the sweetest of all my championships!”
Henry and Factory Yamaha Racing Manager Keith McCarty look on as James offers thanks and relives the highs and lows of his season with the ecstatic Yamaha faithful.
James enjoys the moment in front of Yamaha’s headquarters before retreating inside the building for a photo session with the appreciative Yamaha employees.
James would once again like to thank everyone at Yamaha for all of the hard work and support throughout the series, as well as his incredible fans for cheering him all the way to the title in Vegas!

I like what you all have to say. Very straight to the point. All in all great blog
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
Just basically wanted to mention My partner and i seriously value your work on this weblog site and the high-quality posts you produce. These kind of posting are likely to be exactly what continues me going through the day time. I discovered this article after a great close pal of my very own recommended it to me personally. My partner and i do some blogging as well as site-building professionally and I am always grateful to check out others contributing top quality information towards online community. I am going to absolutely be following and additionally have book marked your own website to my bebo accounts intended for other people to see.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
While this subject can be very touchy for most people, my opinion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do appreciate that youve added relevant and intelligent commentary here though. Thank you! from the very first strains of “Love Me, Do” to the last refrain of “Hey, Jude,” beatles music crosses generations and bridges cultures in a way the music of no other artist.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
This really is actually very good advice, many thanks.
Wow this takes me back. Like your blog design too.
Great post, thanks. A good quick read.
If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.
I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
