Using a SIM card from a Motorola RAZR in an iPhone worked for many years - and why not? I never used the data side. Ever. One day I get an email from AT&T saying I've been put into a data plan, with no options out.
Dear Valued Customer,
We hope you are enjoying your iPhone! We appreciate and value your business and want to be sure you are aware of a change we've made to your account to ensure you have the best possible experience with data usage in the United States.
iPhones are made for data consumption-surfing the web, social networking, email and more. That's why we require an iPhone data plan in conjunction with our iPhones. This ensures that customers with data intensive devices are not unpleasantly surprised with high data pay-per-use charges.
For whatever reason, our records indicate your iPhone does not have an eligible data plan. We have added an appropriate data plan for your iPhone.
If you would like to select another iPhone data plan or have questions, please call 1-800-331-0500 (or 611 from your wireless phone). You can also visit www.att.com/myATT to manage your account. For additional information about iPhone plan requirements visit www.att.com/dataplans.
Thank you for being an AT&T customer. We look forward to continuing to provide you with a great iPhone experience.
I'm not. Any modern government (law enforcement or intelligence agencies) would or at least should have this capability. The real question is, do they use it without warrants, use it in an indiscriminant fashion, etc. If they were going after a legitimate suspect, they should have the capability to do so.
For Mac users, check out the Matias "Tactile Pro" keyboard. All the Model M clickiness you can stand, but with all the Mac symbols printed on the keyboard. I've got one myself, and it's a real pleasure.
I'm wondering that they're thinking with the GUI... Applications go all-white, the rest (and dialog boxes, etc.) are color... Buttons and other controls are all "flat" now.
It would appear to me, that the GUI has devolved for the sake of simplicity - or something.
What little disposable income people have in this economy these days is going to cheaper, more mobile devices. Not so much smartphones, but clearly tablets - and the largest percentage (60% or so IIRC) going to Apple's iPad.

They're not doing so well on the other fronts either. I think Ballmer needs to go - if Microsoft is to survive. ;)
Keep it.

So it's a video about nothing... Since the "finer points" are missing.

BBEdit it's not, and it has been dying a slow death from its Textmate "1" days. Hopefully this will give it a much-needed shot in the arm.
It's EUROPE's fastest supercomputer - but the topic title says "World." Last time I checked, Europe wasn't quite THAT big...
Ahh, x86. D'ohh! :p

No wonder they're not popular. C99? C11? It should be "C... X!" :p
Walk into Apple store. Pick size. Done. :)
Add Gawker to the same list the New York Times is on. That is, "pass."
All your ferromagnetic objects are belong to us!
I stopped reading NYT (which admittedly wasn't much to begin with) when they first introduced their paywall.
That's fine - now I can just ignore their site altogether. Congrats, NYT.
Agreed - that part of the story didn't jive with me either...
They're claiming a lack of coffee in the cafeteria (with caffeine) is keeping them sleepy.

Here they walk in and take all your meth, instead.
If you could invent such a device, surely it'd be worth more than the $10m prize, I'm thinking. ;)
