I've never seen anyone needing a cheat-sheet to enter their PIN around here. So, it appears that the French population at large is able to remember a 4-digit number.
I'm sorry to hear that the average American is unable to do that.
Providing PINs (which is a 4-digit number) look a very welcome idea to me!
* it's something like already occurs here in Brazil, with SIM PINs and bank ATM machines ^^
NET was not "the market first", but the market-only in the case (and, I think, it only made the investments [several years ago] thinking this situation will persist up to now [but it changed, by government intervention [some years ago]: it causes the near-bankrupt of the company...])
NET was not "the market first", but the market only in the case (and, I think, it only made the investments thinking this situation will persist up to now [but it changed, by government intervention: it causes the near-bankrupt of the company...])
I think this naming problem is is a consequence of o major problem, that relates to all open-source community: poor "marketing" decisions (it's not natural?)
with internet access: it generated a plan form a major cable company here (now with 2mbps speed, from 512Kbps on beginning [in 2009, I think...]) for R$ 39,90 (equivalent to ~US$10 now...)
something like it happened here, in Brazil: NET, a private company (owned by the largest TV Broadcaster here), made large investments in cable distributing lines (and nearly bankrupted) - this kind of thing can only be done by near-monopolies (because near-all the return of the investment will be captured from this only company...), which was the case here (and, as a private thing, the cable distribution don't cover small and non profitable markets [which is also the main goal in public investments])
The "invisible hand" don't helps, always:/
I recommend Opera Mini over "normal Opera": it has a much minor size and memory footprint (by been very light, it works very well on old phones and tablets)
DownThemAll is a must have add-on to me, and it's not available for Chrome (since long time, now): it was the primary cause that made me stick with Firefox over Chrome:P

I didn't understood the "government intervention" in this case: can you explain it to me?
it was part of PNBL (in Portuguese, or National Broadband Plan, in English)
