It needs to be held perfectly still, or it will detect it's own movement too, though. I wanna know why they don't just use an acelerometer to detect the devices motion and subtract that from the detected motion?"

Now I wonder how soon it will be on my local bookstore's shelf." cloudmaster points to this description -- in German, there for the babelfishing adventurer -- of the new release. In addition to the ever-evolving SuSE logo, you'll find there that SuSE is branching ala Red Hat and others into Personal and Professional versions; the Personal comes with "three easy to understand handbooks" intended to guide new users, one of which is all about system configuration.

cloudmaster sent us something pretty sweet: a document describing how to send files byte by byte using TCP headers. Pretty crazy covert channel if I've ever seen one. Anyone see any other clever ones lately?
