Microsoft Orange SPV Phone Review

Posted by timothy on from the sticky-fingers dept.

Ian Bell writes "HowardChui.com just posted a review on Microsoft's new Orange SPV which is the first commercially available Smartphone. The SPV stands for Sound, Pictures, Video and you can download games like Doom or listen to MP3s on the speaker or even chat to your friends using the built-in MSN Messenger. But for all that the SPV features, there is no Bluetooth support. It still looks like a killer phone and I like that it is smaller than the PocketPC phones currently on the market."

  1. GPL'd libraries purged of GNU virus by Michael's+a+Jerk! · · Score: -1, Troll

    I have just now written a version of readline() that:

    (1) conforms to the standard GNU readline() API
    (2) in fact actually uses the standard GNU readline() function
    (3) does *NOT* poison your code with the GPL

    Because we now have the existence proof that there somewhere exists a
    non-infective version of the library API ,this means that readline()
    is now safe for anyone to link against without any viral contamination.

    Enjoy!

    Of even greater interest is that my small proof-of-concept example is
    not specific to readline(). All GPL'd library code can be effectively
    purged of the virus.

    Rejoice!
