In that case, if the price is lower because of subsidies provided by the bloatware suppliers, then it's not unreasonable for them to put restrictions that make it difficult to bypass the bloatware.
And the fiber can still have a 15-30 year lifespan. The speed of the network over the fiber isn't as much a function of the fiber, but the electronic/optics connected to it. The fiber that Verizon installed in my neighborhood a few years ago can theoretically transfer terabits/sec. However, the cost effective equipment that Verizon installed is only working in the 100's Gb/s range. In 10 years, Verizon can upgrade the equipment in the CO and in my basement to bring that up to 10's Gb/s over the same physical cable plant. Much in the same way that they installed DSL equipment over the twisted pair copper of the 60's to bring me 1.5Mbps DSL.
Congestion is what happens when there are too many clients busy on the channel that you are on. This is workable. Interference is what happens when there are clients/AP's on adjacent, overlapping channels (802.11b/g 2.4Ghz). This is unworkable. Just because you have your AP's on the proper channels, doesn't mean that those around you do.
The best solution is to move to 802.11a (5Ghz) where there are a log more channels, and they don't overlap.
Creating picocell infrastructure won't help you if you don't control the clients. Most clients don't support 802.11h, so even if your access points are transmitting at low power, the clients are all still screaming at the top of their lungs.
even the most touted and expensive 'enterprise ssd' can die out on you unexpectedly.
Yes. Unlike a magnetic hard drive. I often go into our data center, filled with 600 servers, and go listening for the hard drives that are noisier than normal so that I can predict which hard drives are going to fail next.
Except the article is talking about MS's published database, which is the MAC addresses of IEEE 802.11 devices in infrastructure mode. Not tablets or phones.
Then the fire inspector came and cited him for not having any functioning smoke detectors.

You forgot the perfect color convergence, and straight lines that are actually straight on a fixed-pixel display. My first HDTV was a 36" Tube. The picture was sharper, but despite my best efforts, it still suffered from the distortion that is inherent in a spherical CRT trying to be a flat screen.
In the summer we (Northeast) get 15 hours of sunlight, with the sun directly overhead at midday. In the window, we get ~10 hours of sunlight, with the sun relatively low in the sky. I would wager that the benefit of a white roof in the summer is greater than the benefit of a black roof in the winter.
I have an OG Droid, a Nook Color running CM7, and an iPad2. Whereas there are definitely a LOT more iPad specific apps available for the iPad than there are tablet specific apps available for the Nook, that's not a balanced equation. On the iPad, iPhone apps are barely usable. They scale horribly, and don't take advantage of the larger screen in any way. OTOH, apps that I use regularly on my small screen Droid, work just as well, if not better, on my large Nook. The Android platform simply does a much better job scaling to different screen sizes. (the 'fragmentation' of handset designs made this a requirement from the start, unlike the iPhone)
As for tablet specific apps for Android, it's a matter of time. There haven't been a lot of tablets on the market until recently, and as I said, the phone apps fit the bill for 80% of the tablet users' needs anyway.
I'm a network manager- not a developer, but being able to have log files scrolling on one screen while I perform an action that's not functioning makes me more productive. Also, having a configuration window on one screen, while a full page of documentation on the other makes that process more efficient.
Truth be told, it's about available screen real-estate, not necessarily a second monitor. However, in my experience, I've found 2 19" displays is much cheaper than the equivalent screen real estate in a single monitor.
The problem is that cars with human drivers have been around for a long time. It's (for the most part) an accepted fact that when there's a car accident, if anyone is going to be sued, it's the driver. We generally don't sue the manufacturer except in cases of hardware failure. If cars had been invented today, in the modern legal era, they would never succeed as the first time there was a car accident (driver error), the lawyers would sue the car manufacturers out of existence. Adding self driving cars to the mix would open up the established paradigm, and lawyers will go after the manufacturers for any accidents; either killing the manufacturers/suppliers, or putting an end to self driving cars shortly after they are introduced.
3. Your doing it wrong.
I've seen poorly written database applications that have the client pull entire tables down to process them locally, rather than write proper queries.
Cat 5e has been pretty much the standard for at least 10 years now. If you had run that 3 years ago, you'd be easily pushing 1Gbps to each device on your network, rather than sharing, under ideal conditions, a maximum of 350Mbps between all your devices.
Richest? Unlikely. They'd pick the poorest. The ones with the least chance of fighting. Why fight a battle with someone who has a good legal defense, when you can hit the low hanging fruit, and add 100 precedent cases to your belt?
Then it's not multicast. Most ISP's don't support multicast. If they did, then it would be trivial for broadcasters to begin simulcasting their channels over the Internet. It would cost them practically nil. This would go against the cable co's interests.
...so much as usability. CD's were a major step up in usability over casette; likewise for DVD over VHS. And there is no downside to a CD/DVD compared to what they replaced. What does BD add? You can see the menus without stopping the movie, and there is some more advanced interactive features (which I've never heard of anyone who used...) What do you give up? These discs that look just like DVD's can't play in any of the other DVD players that you have. They are more sensitive to dirt/scratches/etc, they cost up to twice as much, and they are slower to load, etc.
I've had a BD player by way of my PS3 for years. The only time I buy a BD is when it comes packaged with a DVD copy. My copy of Cars of BD is no good to me if the kids can't watch it in the car.
No- the parent's point was that even if you are streaming multiple Netflix HD feeds, you don't need more than 20-30Mbps. They won't use it. One of the benefits of 105Mbs service is that downloading content (not streaming), which generally is of the more illegal content, is what benefits from high throughput, low cap services.
The camera on the 9000 series phones is nothing like a flip phone. It's simply a USB web cam, that plugs directly into the phone. It's not HD, and it doesn't have very good optics. They didn't need to spend $500mil for that.
Judges are not supposed to be expertly trained in the specifics of a case. That would imply pre-existing opinions. Judges (and jurors) are supposed to hear (presumably) expert testimony in the case from both side, and then judge who is right or wrong according to the law.

The C&D had nothing to do with modifying the phones or OS, but why let facts get in the way of rhetoric.

And what two are those? I can think of 4 off the top of my head- G1, Nexus, Nexus S, and original Droid.
