pretty simple, companies should not sell and buy patents!
Either that or they should be treated as real property and taxed, like real estate is taxed in most states. Then annual taxes would be assessed to patent holder.
because then Geico's commercials will really be offensive to cave men.
Ok seriously, why would we clone a Neanderthal? What make them a prison spectacle in a cage? Just because we can does not mean we should. This is one that we should not clone. Didn't they see Jurassic Park? Well not exactly the same thing, but who knows, that Neanderthal could have some disease that could kill all humans. Or we could kill it with a cold.
It's already possible to put android on the N800/N810 Nokia tablets. I'd imagine it would be just a matter of getting someone to do the installer or try it out. Android is after all Linux under the hood, so it is possible that any netbook that runs Linux already can run android with a little bit of work. The CPU should not matter too much either, because Linux runs on almost all CPU's out there.
As for the iPhone and it's OS, it's called a mac. The iPhone is supposed to be running Mac OS X modified to run on the arm and with extra restrictions.
Personally I think the iPhone UI is more suited for a pda/phone type device and the android OS would probably work better on a desktop, but that's just IMO.
and a distinct taste if you lick them ( not eat them ). Yeah very sexual in a sense to get that close to someone, but hey, unless your some type of prude who denies that people have sex, then you probably have done some licking of another person and have said, she/he tastes so fine or something.
the point is that the iphone is what the g1 needs to and is trying to compete against and the iphone has had a year lead on the g1. maybe there will be updates to the g1 that will change the playing field, but the ui of the g1 is not that great.
Unfortunately the iphone is considered better than the g1, here's why:
1) more apps for the iphone, but that could change in time
2) iphone = itunes, which everyone seems to use. while there are alternatives, I don't believe any are as popular
3) iphone has better touch interface, the 2 finger resize is a very popular feature that the g1 does not have, there are other features.
4) the g1 has this ridiculous bend at the bottom of the phone
5) the keyboard is a odd layout compared to say the iphone onscreen keyboard or even the keyboard of the nokia n810, I actually think if the n810 were to be made into a phone in it's current design it would be a better item.
this is what several iphone users who have seen the g1 have said to me at least, and I kind of agree.
If these people would put their time into doing good, they could probably do some real good in the form of character recognition for scanners and hand held input writing recognition. Think of taking this and using it to understand what someone has written in their pda and converting it to text without someone having to learn a new writing language. Or scanning written letters and other writings and converting them normal print.
that someone else knew what his password was. That means that they track and can read your password. I don't think that would make me feel comfortable. I would hope that passwords were stored encrypted and not decryptable by staff.
Photoshop allows you to digitally take all your exes out of your photos and never have to see them again, unless you run into them on the street. My luck I would too, and have!
an earthquake or tornado is not preventable at this day and age, but dumping ssn and other sensitive info out on the web is.
You have to much faith in humanity. Obviously you haven't seen the price of gas in the US, greenhouse issues and the lovely war that our oh so faithful president has gotten us into. But that is just MY opinion and I'm sure lots of people will disagree, and I usually call them dumb!
Actually Linux stole from Minux not UNIX, and UNIX stole from BSD.
Also SCO stole from Linux, and there has been LOTS of code sharing that people wont admit all around. Like network code came from BSD, but everyone uses it, including MS.
In a day and age where we have so much identity theft, they basically gave the thieves the identities to steal. Then the government is going to say, hey it is your problem not ours and people will spend huge amounts of money to fix this.
It is not overblown, IMHO, and the responsible people should be canned! There should be laws against this also. This includes corporations that do this. Like maybe jail time for aiding a thief!
Well this explains why so many people see things in the night sky's that they mistake as UFOs. A satellite falls or moves from orbit and shows a weird reflection into the earths atmosphere and it looks like a UFO.
I think it would be a 'use tax' and I think that use tax would be something that you could use on your income taxes. At least I am hoping that would be the way it would work, like sales taxes. But who knows. I think this senator is a f****** a**h*** for even suggesting a tax, and no I am NOT a republican, but I hate taxes! Out taxes need to be managed, not abused like they have been for years.
.. I should have patented this when I thought of it.. of course it is so obvious.. rather than have a large screen on a device, put a small projector in it and then you can have as large as screen as you can a surface..
Imagine taking a nokia N810 and adding a projector in it. Add a usb hub for a little larger keyboard and a mouse and you can have an ultra portable desktop anywhere. Just add white surface.
You will probably need to get a CS, CE, or EE degree. An MIS degree would not be that bad either. You have also take languages that are less 'in'. You would need Java, php, or.net before most places would even look at your resume. Then you would also need to know either UI design, or database. If you wanted to do database stuff, then you should learn either hibernate, or.net, as MS has their own db stuff within.net. If you wanted to do UI then you would either need to know.net forms, Java swing, or CSS/JavaScript/HTML.
Then you need experience, and since you have none, you would need to be ok with getting paid less. For database, I would say mysql or oracle. You need to understand sql and table design layout, as well as how to stop table scans.
I think that any company that has patent and is not implementing them, or selling them or letting other use them for a fee ( or free ) within 2 years of the issuance of the patent, should loose their patent and it should become public domain. This would prevent people from being patent trolls. Basically use it or loose it, and using it to prevent people from implementing it or suing people who implement it does not count as using it.
I guess that is what duct tape is for. Stick a little over the camera and viola. They can't see squat!
Personally I think this would be a huge invasion of privacy. If some hacker tapped into this and got video of some guy doing his wife. If they were 'in front of the tv' and watching pr0n, and then it got posted on you tube. I'd imagine that there would be a huge law suite in the US.
I really hate comcast at this point. I wish there were other cable companies in my area, and no dish does not work so well were I live. It is too windy and foggy.

Well this just seems like the AU gov is really f'd up these days. IMO.

In any case I always thought Eureka was a US or at least Canadian city, not an Australian city in the series?
not vaporware, just watch your data and applications disappear into the clouds where you'll never see them again ...rotflol
as they say in school .. the g1 needs improvement
1) more apps for the iphone, but that could change in time
2) iphone = itunes, which everyone seems to use. while there are alternatives, I don't believe any are as popular
3) iphone has better touch interface, the 2 finger resize is a very popular feature that the g1 does not have, there are other features.
