Apple stole the "slide to unlock", minimalist design and other features from existing devices. Then they had the balls to sue companies like Samsung over these features that Apple didn't even own or create. BAU for the new evil empire.
So this President wants to continue a payroll tax cut that effectively defunds Social Security (that's the tax that is being cut), but at the same time blames Republicans for trying to destroy Social Security?
What are you talking about? You can find Cisco IOS firmware pretty much anywhere. Ask the IT department at the office. I'm sure they can get it for you. Plus recovering a password does nothing to the "savings". Reset the password and move on with life.
I just love it when someone say, "I'm looking for a motorcycle," and some smart alec says, "What you really need is a pickup," like he knows better than the OP what it is he really wants...
Not sure if serious. The OP said that he wanted a router that he could customize with lots of features - quasi enterprise features. What he's looking to purchase will likely cost $50-$70. The information that I provided can get him enterprise functionality for $50 to whatever he wants to spend.
I used lots of enterprise equipment at home because it's fun, educational, and just because I can.
Just go to eBay and buy some used enterprise equipment dirt cheap. Cisco 2600 (2611 or 2621) or 2800 series routers will do what you want and have the horse power and code base for your needs. There are some good bargains to be had.
I guess they probably won't support DynDNS, but everything else should be covered.
Says who? Every time we get into one of these debt crises, people say we have to cut spending and raise taxes. And in the end, the taxes get raised, but the spending never actually gets cut, and so the Government just gets bigger and bigger and bigger. It's gotta stop somewhere. That's why I say no tax increases until we've really cut spending. Like not a small decrease in the rate of future increases, more like 10% actual cuts across the board, including both entitlement programs and the military.
THIS! A thousand times this!!!
Raising taxes would only bring in more money that would be spent. I don't care what your party affiliation is, but you know damn well that more revenue coming in means that it will all be spent and none of it, NONE OF IT would go to reducing the deficit. Prove to me that you can cut spending and then we'll talk about raising taxes. Until then you're not getting a single cent from me.
So, I'm supposed to trust that Microsoft's antivirus software will work better than their OS? On what grounds? If they can't make an out-of-the-box OS secure, then why should I trust that their antivirus application will work any better?
I'll stick with my current 3rd party provider until Microsoft can prove that they can take security seriously.
This would not have been feasible, which is why it didn't work. the idea of a carrier pushing through a wifi network with enough coverage space is laughable. The 3g/4g wireless spectrum operates entirely different than wifi because wifi is limited in many ways..
The point is, we can all sit around and throw ideas and himhaw back and forth, but if things don't pass engineering/financial spec the don't get done. Applauding Jobs as a visionary for an idea that failed on technical and financial merit is kinda stupid.
The success was in the not doing it.
Bullshit. It was a retarded idea from the beginning because unlicensed Wi-Fi is absolutely atrocious on a small scale - it can't even be done on a national level.
If Jobs was brilliant and the plan was successful for not being implemented then I must be a god damn genius for all of the stupid ideas I've crushed at my company.
Fox News will have a fair and balanced field day with this.
I would think that all media outlets would have a field day with this. Can you imagine what would've happened is this were Bush bad mouthing foreign leaders in a private conversation? The liberal media (NBC, CBS, MSNBC, PBS, etc) would cream their pants!
BlackBerry has had all of these security features since 2004/2005. Remote wipe, policy enforcement, encryption, etc. Why not use a product that was secure off the shelf? Was it not expensive enough???
perhaps it this kind of thinking that lead to the whole mess in the first place.
Exactly. I remember being told that if I watched my pennies then the dollars would take care of themselves. In the same way if we watch our billions then the trillions will take care of themselves.
We nickled and dimed ourselves to death. Over decades to get to this point. The longer we wait to get serious about our debt the more it is going to hurt. People need to stop acting like we can make serious cuts and improvements in our debt overnight. It will take us years and decades to reverse the trend - which is what is needed to do it right.
The hurricane hunters measured winds > 74 MPH, so it was a hurricane. The fact that winds > 74 MPH weren't recorded as having much land impact has nothing to do with the classification of the storm
There's a difference between measured winds and sustained winds. He could've measured 200MPH winds, but if they're not sustained for long periods of time then they are just wind gusts.

Got it.
Wow - lots of unions on the list.
I've been pleased with 1&1's service over the years. I have both personal and business accounts with them.
Originally there were reports by Iran that they shot it down. Iran seems to keep changing their story on how they acquired the plane.
JVM is not loaded on BB Playbook 1.x. My comment is correct.
I stand by my comment. BlackBerry phones run JVM. The Playbook does not. The applications are based on Adobe Air.
As of right now the Playbook does not run JVM.....you retard.

Actually, it's running QNX. I don't believe the Playbook is running Java.

Google wanted to spend billions on spectrum. Google CEO was on Apple's board for a while.
Google wanted LICENSED spectrum which is quite different from the wild wild west of UNLICENSED spectrum.

It still beats the hell out of ActiveSync. Microsoft should be ashamed that a 3rd party can tie in their devices to Exchange better than ActiveSync.

$12 billion is not a lot?!!?!??!?!

They need to pay Matt Mulholland for original material. He's funny and talented as all get out.
US Cellular doesn't charge to receive incoming calls.
Also, Verizon has free mobile-to-mobile (VZW customers only) calling. It's not the same as free incoming, but at least it's something.

True, Obama hasn't lived up to what he promised, let alone what we hoped he'd do, but we're still better off.
With over a 9% unemployment rate (that's actually closer to 18%) I think there are millions of Americans who would disagree.
You bastard. My head hurts after reading that.
I like the idea, but I think that trade agreements don't allow us to overtax imports.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
