So I go to read the press release blurb on Yahoo...what gives? The info was non-specific and contained no links to Motorola's website. Anyone got more info?
If taken at face value, this could be a boon to 2-way paging devices or 'sports boxes' that deliver info to rabid sports fans anywhere/everwhere/all the time.
Finally, something useful. The flexibility will allow technology to be used to manage multi-function devices for the home. People love to buy convenience. Imagine what a product designer could do with a flexible logic board. A blender will never look the same.
From a business standpoint, computers and technology can be customized for each application. Computers that can fit in a curved area or wrapped around the back/base of a monitor or flat panel display.
I was cynical at first. I read the stories in the paper, on the web, and watched on TV. I wondered aloud if the parents were a factor. Then I remember a link from Slashdot: an article about kids in Idaho written for Rolling Stone. I realized that people of all ages make decisions on their own. Sometimes these decisions are well reasoned and sometimes not, as evidenced by this week's tragedy.
I talked to a friend of mine at lunch yesterday about Colorado and the killings. He and I agreed that the problem was communication. The kids (the shooters) had something to say and, they thought, no one to listen. How many times have you been hurt emotionally and felt "too whipped" to say anything to anyone. A friend or loved one says, "Hey, how are you doin'?"; is your standard reply "Fine" or are you willing to open up when you need to.
The shooters expressed themselves in a way which they believed everyone would (finally) understand. Don't blame the internet or parents. Let's let them take some of the blame themselves. Ozzy Ozbourne, DOOM, computers, and Bill Clinton aren't to blame for your behavior. You are.
Your favorite horse, one you raised from birth, is being sold by your father to be used as glue. Would you shoot it in the head or let your father sell it?

Are the only people who post to /. anymore ones with user IDs greater than 10000?

Wow. I am humbled.
