  8. Good luck competnig with OUTLOOK on OpenOffice.org 3.0 Wants to Compete with Outlook · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Without any kind of SEAMLESS intergeneration with ACTIVE SYNC you stand ZERO CHANCE of prying Outlook from my hands. Sure I use Open Office but dumped Thunderbird after giving it more than a fair chance.

  23. Re:What do to in the stores to give them a message on iPhone Business Model Hits a Snag in France · · Score: 1

    Also, we have a COOLING OFF PERIOD where if we do not want to continue the contract withing weeks or a month or so, we can return it for a cancellation and refund :) I do love consumer friendly laws. So we can sign the contract, get the locked phone, then return it :) One used crippled useless phone later that has been subsidised by the mobile phone operator. Customer churn is deadly to mobile operators, Also a good rebargening tool for a new better contract.

    Depends on how much you are good at the gift of the gab :) One sales person was going to lock it, i said RATHER LOUDLY IN THE BUSY STORE I AM NOT PAYING X amount for a CRIPPLED PHONE. He was very very embarassed at my inability to CONTROL THE LOUDNESS OF MY VOICE (must have been the freezing process :) ) so he give in and did not lock it, I even confirmed this by my own collection of Sims (subscriptionless anonymous SIM's :) ).

  25. America's phone records are handled by.. on FCC Declines To Probe Disclosure of Phone Records · · Score: 5, Informative

    .. Amdocs , an Israel company and has ALL records perfect for phone data mining. Great for the intelligence community. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUXFHON_v9o Still want to have a SUBSCRIPTION service where they can know everything about you? I strongly recommend VoIP abroad or subscriptionless mobiles if you value your privacy.
