An ARM9 + memory would alone go over $10 in volume. I'm talking about the lowest cost ARM9 I know of and the smallest memories I could find for a recent project, 8MB RAM and 256MB NAND FLASH. A trackball would cost more than touch-screen.
In the end, it would look like a cell phone...
Unfortunately I think it will be a huge success.
People do the dumbest thing all the time. Otherwise I wouldn't see every now and then a no-news in the journal about some lottery-ticket scam and the police saying its quite common.
Just in case a lottery-ticket scam isn't common in your area: Someone approaches the victim saying that has won the lottery, but for some bogus and nonsense reason can't draw the prize, so the need to exchange the ticket with the victim for a fraction of the prize...
Sometimes here we let it ripe on the tree exactly for calling some birds...
I don't know the name of the variety in english, we call it "branca", "white".
looks like you never ate one banana that got ripen on the tree.
It is much sweeter and tastes much better. Now, if you are doing it commercially, you better find a way of keeping birds and some other animals very far of it, as they tend to make holes in every single banana they find.
Really, high definition video. I mean, remove that horrible cable between the CPU and the monitor. Full HD(1920x1080) uncompressed transfer would be around 1.5Gbps net. And please, don't come with lossy compression, this isn't for watching films.
Yep, the important detail is that this mosquito is an alien species in quite a lot of places. And it seems much better targeted than the tons of insecticide thrown in the air now. The lack of mosquitoes in URBAN area isn't much of an ecological problem.
wrong. B and C are not the same person. C is the instruction or data path of the processor solely. B (the user) is not intended to have access to the plain text, only to a processed output. Of course, if the processed output is the data itself (video or audio, for example), it gets complicated.
Yes, it is possible. It's just not that simple. You need a good key stored inside the processor in battery backed RAM, and a real-time decryption engine from the memory to the internal processor bus. This is used for embedded code protection in some cases. This has some really serious drawbacks. First, if the backup battery is dead or removed, you have a brick. Second, if its to be used for DRM, the key must be unique for each unit and software distribution will be a nightmare. And the list goes on...

Yeah, now you see SILICONE in almost every breast arroud...
