Android uses DalvikVM, which is a vm designed for mobile devices. It's not as advanced nor as fast as Sun's JVM, it doesn't use JIT yet and the JIT implementation it has is very new.
Firefox will be a native port. Chrome Jr. that comes with Android is similar, it's webkit, which is also a native library.
Same here with my G1. I upgraded to Cyanogenmod and it was like installing a new phone on my phone (cyanogen must have heard I liked using phones!).
It's great to see options. If t-mobile and HTC are slow to upgrade their phones, other people can pickup the slack. I'd have PAID for cyanogenmod if I knew how good it was going to be.
This diversity is a great thing you won't see on the iPhone until the Android port becomes stable enough for regular use.;)
You realize it's a router, not a switch, right? This is going to be hooking up to your ISP... which probably isn't anywhere near fast ethernet, let alone gigabit. If you want gigabit, hook it up to a gigabit switch. If your network edge is gigabit, get real networking hardware because nothing netgear (or PC Engines) sells is going to handle that extremely well.
As far as wifi, it's mini-pci, so you can choose whatever hardware you want. Want a really nice high watt atheros N card? You can use it and you can easily use any antenna you want as well.
(no I don't work for them, I'm not even from Europe)
They have all kind of configuration options, removable storage, lots of case options, they're reliable and they're pretty fast. They run a few distros, including OpenWRT, so you can choose what your favorite Linux or BSD router distro is and have at it.

Apple To Buy ARM?

Apple doesn't seem to mind fucking it's existing customers over for personal reasons, I doubt they'll hold back against competitors like Google and others.
Slashdot Mirror
It was probably canned because Microsoft didn't want to be publicly owned again by Apple, Google and the other competitors out there.
They've horribly failed at just about everything except their latest OS upgrade.
Dude, it's all about tightening up those graphics.
RIM accounts for the great majority of the market, it's a fallacy to lump Apple in with them. Apple is a bit player right now, just like Android.
And Android's growing a lot faster than Apple's offerings.
I fail to see what this has to do with upstart.
Or diverse, however you want to look at it.
Saying it's fragmented is like saying "US business is fragmented, there's a bunch of small and large competitors who perform similar work!"

Chubby Rain.
Come on Node 3, refute this guy's anti-apple rhetoric!
The context was between Android and Apple.
But even so, do you think RIM would not instantly jump at the chance to trade places with Apple?
Please cite where I said anything like that. I sense straw man.
You should.
Yeah well, we'll see if it can put a dent in the iWhore's market share.
Why for are you beings a so mean?
It's one out of dozens of Android phones, each model with it's own features and price ranges.
Steve Jobs has been quaking like a motherfucker (and not in the fun way) if the reports of his Google tantrums are true...
Because it's not appropriate to post links to pump and dump scams on Slashdot?

PC Engines' ALIX routers are my favorite: http://www.pcengines.ch/alix.htm

Dear god I hope this falls though.
Valve should partner with Canonical and work with them to get a first class Ubuntu release working.
Canonical could put Steam in their official partner repo for closed source stuff like Adobe's software.
You hear me Gabe, contact Mark Shuttleworth at Ubuntu and lets get this rolling!
Dumbass,
If you look at brainfuck syntax and the operator example I quoted, you'll see a slight resemblance.
*your
before some pedantic douche bag posts about it.
Okay you got me on the Xbox, but other than that you're post is reading comprehension FAIL.
They're both failures no one really uses, they occupy a tiny fraction of the markets they're in.
I rock the 'buntu champ, I really doubt "my time is coming" in regards to DRM and lockdown.
True, although I've never owned any products in the Xbox line either so I guess I don't know first hand.
I generally avoid Microsoft products if possible, but Windows is the only one that's really hard, nigh impossible, to completely eliminate.
