Transmitting uses much more power than receiving. This peer-to-peer method may play havoc with battery life in a weak cell reception area. I hope they are considering that ramification in the design and metering of the service. How much traffic should one phone carry and how does it benefit the phone holder? Perhaps a credit scheme for carrying traffic?
My initial thought as well. Upon further research, the Danish noun sværm (transliterated to the proper name Swarm for the three-satellite program) may be translated as swarm, flight or cloud. I can see referring to three satellites as a flight.

Who here honestly believes that a US government required weather satellite carries only a weather payload? Try reading a spy novel now and then, my fellow nerds.
Look for non-profit schools in your area and offer these systems for teaching keyboarding and intro to programming. These functions don't require much horse power or graphics and free (as in Beer) software and courseware is readily available.
Ask your local clubs (e.g, Lions, Rotary, Exchange, Optimists) whether they have a need for free office automation.
Weight does not equal mass but mass is vitally involved in determining weight.
Only when a gravitational field is measurably present. Gravity is the primary determinant of weight, vice mass. Mass is only a secondary or tertiary determinant of weight.
Have you been sleeping during the past coverage of Stuxnet, and the analysis by researchers? Stuxnet was introduced using infected USB sticks. (emphasis added)
See, we have learned something valuable from the Chinese!
Since the Air Force has dozens of spares of this particular airframe, it is more economical to pull a newer one out of storage and move all the stuff that makes a JSTAR a JSTAR to a new plane.
JSTARS is not built on the C-135 airframe, exactly, but they share a common ancestor. JSTARS aircraft were built on a number of different commercially available used Boeing 707 variants. Essentially, each one was a custom installation. Air Mobility Command could not spare any viable KC-135 airframes for JSTARS, as they needed every refueler they could manage to maintain the fleet to meet unified command requirements. The other special purpose EC/RC/OC-135s were not available either, as their missions took precedence over the JSTARS effort.
The JSTARS program likely will not receive adequate funds to purchase another airframe and integrate the equipment. It's more likely that the JSTARS equipment and viable airframe parts form this aircraft will be salvaged for spares to extend the lives of the remaining JSTARS aircraft. Other platforms are more likely to be funded to absorb portions of the JSTARS capability. This decision will be driven by high and growing supportability costs for JSTARS.

Try this on for size: Lewis's First Law of Metrics: You get what you measure -- that's the risk you take.

Facts speak louder than vociferous opinions.
But this is geologic real-time!

Does the law encompass Hulu and other internet streaming services? Loud and repetitious ads are worse than merely repetitious ads.
Wasn't that the goal?
Note the absence of a golf course or driving range.
Do they have to be in "Airplane" mode?
Seriously, I haven't been able to find (in a lunch at my desk search) any clear direction on the mode of operation required. Anyone know?

Sudden, otherwise inexplicable increase in popularity of "Higgs" as a baby name.

Voltage exerted on a ground wire can do silly things to pyrotechnics.
The verity and verifiability of the accusations is immaterial; the "I want to believe" factor is just too good to pass up!
The NYTimes is a reliable source, with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.
Absolutely. A terrible reputation is still a reputation.

Rather than ordering more sophisticated attacks, why not just order more effective attacks?
Military grade refinement capable centrifuges failed (hardware damage) due to stuxnet. I'd call that effective.
Addition of a diagonal cross bar to the red circle should suffice and matches accepted international symbology.
Given typical government contracting practices that will cost another $325 million (inflation adjusted from initial cost of $244 million in 1998).
You sir, are an optimist!
