Of course not. Nobody ever does. One thing you can say about every business deal Microsoft has ever done, is that Microsoft came out best from every deal. Pretty much every company that gets into bed with Microsoft gets screwed.
It might help temporarily, but would turn your phones into commodities. Nokia would be forced to sell based on price alone!
Nokia could have sold Android phones based on hardware quality and openness (i.e. providing driver source so developers could collaborate with them, and selling phones unlocked). Both are areas they excelled at.
dunno if the cars relly did speed out of controle or not. but what i am saying even if it happon the braking force would be grater then the stuck acclerator could provide.
Yup. Regardless of whether the accelerator pedal was sticky or under a floor mat or whatever, the driver was still at fault for not using the brake pedal.
One auto magazine even carried out a test where they verified that the brakes on a modern car more powerful than any of the Toyotas at issue can easily stop the vehicle, even with the accelerator held down.
That's because QuickTime X Player is missing most of the features of previous versions. If you install QuickTime Player 7, which is in the Optional Installs on the Snow Leopard disc, it still nags you to pay more money if you want the extra features.
For being so fundamentally flawed, the product is quite remarkable, don't you think?
I suspect that most of the good content was written early on, before the current culture took hold.
I know that in the early days, I contributed quite a few fairly long articles. Now I rarely even bother to fix typos.
But its OS so the community can support the hardware the manufacturers drop.
Only if the manufacturer has obeyed the GPL. HTC hasn't, I'm still waiting for the kernel source they're supposed to provide on request for the phone I bought nearly a year ago.
Basically, I play this thing when I ride the bus to work. Anything that can be done in short spurts works great.
That's why the DS beat the PSP for mobile gaming: no loading times, flip the screen closed to pause whatever you're doing, flip the screen open to resume, and inbetween there's enough battery life to last for days.
I recently saw someone using a PSP in public. It's literally the third time I've ever seen someone use a PSP in public. Whereas in an airport recently, I saw an entire family with DSs...
But since I like Sony franchises and have been a PlayStation gamer through all three generations, I'm kinda hoping they'll get it right this time.
They don't make unlocked versions of devices because they absolutely do not want you doing what you want with your device. This is true for almost every iOS/Android/WP7/Console made.
Except the Android dev kit is free, and you can run any code you care to write with it on your Android phone without having to break any security features. (*) If the PS3 was like that, we wouldn't see so much effort put into cracking the security features.
(*) Except for that one crappy phone AT&T released that nobody bought.
For optimum readability, you want about 12 words per line. With very large numbers of words per line, it's hard for the eye to track across consistently.
That's why newspapers and magazines use multiple columns, instead of one big wide expanse of text right across the page.

Exactly how old do you think the iPad is? Or for that matter iOS and for that matter Linux is including Linux on mobile devices?
Simple proof? Which has the most mature and capable media player for FREE? Meego (VLC Mplayer), iOS or Android?
Well, since Android has mplayer and VLC and just needs the bugs shaken out of them...
They didn't get enough from Microsoft.
Of course not. Nobody ever does. One thing you can say about every business deal Microsoft has ever done, is that Microsoft came out best from every deal. Pretty much every company that gets into bed with Microsoft gets screwed.
As for the other two, Microsoft would have to pay me to make a phone WP7(radioactive)
That's exactly why Nokia picked WP7.
Also, Verizon's 4G network is GSM LTE. So CDMA is dying even in the USA.

This. If Nokia had released an Android phone that was unlocked, had drivers for all the hardware and got regular OS releases, I'd have leaped at it.
MS got: IE as the default browser on the Mac, and the end to patent lawsuits.
Not just patent lawsuits. Microsoft had been caught stealing QuickTime source code and putting it in Video For Windows.
I'm sure Oracle will be only too happy to work with Google to add this to the JDK, right? Right?
Bad Fur Day was done by Rare, not Nintendo itself.
Nevertheless, Nintendo licensed it for the N64 and manufactured the cartridges.

Yes. MyTouch 3G Slide, and they haven't released the BlueZ source, so Cyanogen Mod Bluetooth doesn't work properly.
If it's any consolation, the toy helicopter missions were a bitch on the PS3 as well.

Do we really need to have 3 ipv6 article a week on slashdot.
Judging from the moronic head-in-the-sand and downright wrong replies they get, emphatically yes.
The benefit of hotmail doing it is that web sites won't be able to block *@hotmail.com the way they block *@spamgourmet.com.
Well, if you're going to be pedantic, the original Super Mario Bros was in 3D, it's just that one of the dimensions was time...
Something like "Rubber Dinghy Rapids, bro!"?

It's going to ruin the Facebook experience for people like Oliver Sacks who suffer from face blindness.
Why? Well, for me the SVG import functionality is reason enough.
Only on Windows. They used to have Linux and Mac versions. It's obviously in death spiral mode.
