    this was posted for the humor fact that he is broke as hell now, he used to buy such things like toys.

    Broke? According to this Time article he was worth an estimated ten million dollars in 1998.

    He must of gotten some bad investment advice -- was he a major Enron stockholder or something?

    "Recent advances in global positioning software (GPS) systems and antenna technology coupled with the declining cost of processing power and two-way networking make the possibilities for new devices and services really exciting,'' Wozniak said in a statement.

    A report in the New York Times on Wednesday said Wozniak would not immediately announce what products he is developing. A spokesman for the company was not immediately available to comment further.

    If he's interested in hyping up his GPS doo-hickey, perhaps he should tell us what it is.

    If he's interested in hyping his stock, he should hang out with Dubya.

    Is a device that will change electricity into money. Like Enron does.

    Oh, I mean did. "Power of why" my left buttcheek. Can somebody please explain to me who thought that this energy broker was a good idea?

  7. Enron is a formidable company by rmcd · · Score: 1 · on Bandwidth as Commodity

    Enron is an extraordinary company. Their bandwidth initiative is outlined here. Jeff Skilling, the President, has vision and the ability to put the resources together to pull things off. Under his leadership they were one of the companies which have shaped the market for natural gas since deregulation in the '80s, they have been a key player in the market for electricity, and they were one of the first to trade weather contracts (for example allowing one to speculate on the average temperature in St Louis in April -- you wouldn't use a contract like this, but think about utilities). I heard Skilling give a talk; he said that Enron is working with the New York Mercantile Exchange about creating a bandwidth futures contract!).

    For the reasons others have mentioned in this thread, bandwidth trading is inevitable. Check out band-x as an example of what is happening now.
