I'm going to guess this has been posted 100+ times already. But...
The HTC Kaiser, or the Wizard, or the TyTN would all make great remote admin machines. Real keyboard, slightly larger than a modern phone, but smaller than my first mobile. Windows CE, so a lot of applications out, everything (including: VNC + SSH tunneling, emacs, javac (with some playing) and Quake 2). They keyboard (on the Kaiser) combined with the Fn-Tab combo (brings up a symbo pad) makes coding on it doable, and not completely unpleasent.
If you are after cheap, and don't mind EDGE or GPRS then the Wizard would be idea. At 2+ years old it should be on E-Bay for pennies. If you want modern then the Kaiser would be good, but it has issues playing video (I take it you want more than just a putty session.
If you really do just want a putty session then any phone with IR and can act like a modem and a Psion Revo.
A few final thoughts: The Kaiser is a little crippled in the video playing department. The HTC Diamond is round the corner, you might wish to wait for that. ActiveSync hates you, but don't feel alone, it hates eveyone else as well.
OK, as my brain was in the wrong gear and it is the end of the day so it changes gear very slowly I took "Jackass" as Jack Thompson and now have delightful images of little kids chasing massacres in suits and bad shirts screaming "The Video Games Did It!"
Most of the last season/series was really good. It was all the good two parters that would have held up otherwise mediocre seasons/series. I recommend watch the last season/series of Enterprise.
Everyone clicks the links so they can look for Flash or PDFs to bitch at. Many also how that/. has a Goats.cx on the front page. But clicking the link is not the same as reading the article.
Alas many (shittly written) email validations don't like + in emails.
I use SneakEmail, create a new email address per service. They get forwarded to my main email. If the address starts to get spammed, and I like the service I filter to just that service, if the email needs to be public I add a filter to the header, and if neither I kill the address. Simple.
Not really. My guess would be 80% use Windows at home full time, 10% Mac, 5% have windows "but only use it when they have to" (read all the time), 4% as before, but actually do use Linux as the primary system and 1% (if that) are 100% pure Linux users.
My crappy memory tells me: Geeks had 2k. XP was pointed at as it had a weird cute interface (and thus was evil). By the time SP2 came out 2k was old (and so a little stinky) and the Geeks (I knew at least) were buying new computers, a few remained on 2k for a little longer before giving in.
However my memory sucks, I would not believe it if I was you.
Thinking about my use of Bluetooth: a) Headset to phone auth - Done once when I bought the device, why would I want to make the headset heaver and more expenive. b) Computer/phone auth - Done twice once with my home computer (a desktop-replacement laptop) and works desktop computer (not likely to pick that up and shake it) c) Snyc with friends phone (share numbers) - I think I have done this once, normally I just send them a text message or quickly call them etc, but if I were to do it again I'd have to either let a friend shake my phone (top of the range smart phone) or a friend will let me shake his/hers (jokes abound). Mostly also top of the range smart phones. That is not likely to go down well.
Very true, it did grow quite a bit. From what I have seen this growth has mostly stopped and has been at the expense of the PSP, GBA, PC and PS2. The 360 has remained strong and the PS3 has got what was left from the PS2 space after the Wii had its fill.

My compact camera is my smart phone.

Sky not BBC.

Move to the UK, and pay the tax?
BitTorrent, Not sure the Mighty Boosh is on BT, but Dr Who is.
Does it run windows? Yes until you try to use it.
So like any other computer then?
.invalid would be a better option. Example.com is for examples.

I would guess that the 3 or so minutes you spend in space looking out of windows and enjoying zero-g sex is not going to do that much harm.
Where as astronaunts spend days in space, doing something that one hopes (given the costs involved) is at least somewhat important.
4 passengers with the plane in TFA.

They appear to be doing a limited release of the old car. Why not, I'm sure 100 or so people would buy one.
They do look cool, and it is not as if you travel over 25mph in central London.

My windows mobile device?
I'm sure any other smart phone could do it as well.

A Windows Mobile device, such as the HTC TyTN II.
Chuck Opera on it and you have a good web browser. Windows Media Player for your MP3 & videos.
Don't have your Palm apps, but I would guess most would have WM versions.
:lol:
That was joke right? The mobile world smells of Internet Appliance to me.
When someone has deleted AWK, and not before.
It is that game on the Wii...
Odd, dope seams to reduce my score on it. Maybe I'm not taken enough.

My guess is that is Sabeer Bhatias business plan.
And we could expect to see Mario on the iPhone soon?
The DS would make a crappy phone.
