It fucking rocks. The footprint of the device + cradle + unfolded keyboard is still smaller than a laptop. It also serves as a nice light VNC frontend to my HTPC (built in wireless internet). I even made a movie on it with a shitty 50 dollar USB webcam, with the included microsoft movie maker software (a little tricky since I dont read japanese... I am trying to find a spot to put this... I could probably upload a torrent somewhere since I am running bt on the device). I could write all day about the variuos things to do all this... case in point, get your own when they are affordable enough for you.
HTTP URL Wrappers and file_get_contents and serialize, unserialize. With these functions alone you can recreate any CORBA SOAP XML-RPC type remoting. And remoting is good for for scalability because it lets you 'outsource' the workload to another machine. Truly N-Tier design (N>3).
If the release date is 1 year from now, the movie is already 3/4s done, all that remains is market testing and franchising. Maybe the community needs to make a entire new movie. Open Film (like open source). We can get together on a script, and with enough people the financing shouldnt be too hard. Why let 'hollywood' have all the fun making the movies.
If a free service provides you with more storage space than your physical computer, your incentive to buy a large hard-drive will diminish (for a typical (non-porn hording) user). Maybe we will notice a drop in price/gb because of this?
If you don't want interference get a bigger antenae (and or turn up the juice). FCC and 'regulatory commisions' who the fuck cares. Its our electromagnetic spectrum as much as it theirs. Is there be a technically (rather than pollitical) solution to the frequency sharing problem? What if everyone had their own frequency segment...
What about a bomb that goes off if it DOESN'T get a call from its owner. I think they are called 'dead man' switches. This thing might have some use in a theatre though.
Instead of trying to go farther 'underground' why not add facilities to p2p networks for content verification and authenticity.
By this I mean, if your looking for a old Micky Mouse (copyright symbol) cartoon, you go into the Disney (copyright symbol) 'channel', search through their offereings and download what you want... except since you are 100% positive what your downloading is what it says it is... you are willing to pay a small fee (how about $1 dollar a download, size independent... or some sort of subscription service... I pay Disney Inc. directly to be able to download their verified and authenticated content).
This would elminate 'piracy' on the 'overground' network because why would you need to go 'underground' if you allready have access to all the content you wanted through a minimal monthly (or per download) basis (instead of cable telvision... we pay the content creators directly for their shows). This will greatly help artists... because they will be able to market and sell directly to the 'listener' (or viewer)... and bypass the recording industries web of middlemen.
Now ofcourse the underground will still exists, but there will be no point going there... unless your looking for illegal (not pirated) content like child porn (and other nasty stuff). The bandwith costs of being a content producer are augmented through some sort of bittorrent like swarm download... where you are downloading parts of your content from other people who have also downloaded it. This will open up a whole new way to access media, eg. what if instead of going to the shitty theater (and paying a shitty price for shitty sugar water and burnt corn) you can wait until the release day... download a HD stream of that movie directly to your home theater. And since you have 24/7 access to all the content you want (and the downloads are fast because everyone has broadband or better (idlealy fiber)) there is no point of 'hordeing' all the content on your 400gig drive.
Computers slim back down in terms of hardware, and start to act more like what they should act like (for a typical consumer) vcrs. You turn on your fluxbox (I would like to call the system the 'flux') and on your screen is a list of stuff to watch, read, or listen to... and all you pay is a minimal monthly fee... (less than $50, and or pay per download)
Maybe we should start our own media delivery system. Using their expertise (and experience), we develop some for of newer protocol for 'television'. Why let comcast ruin something that could be great (I know whenever I had access to cable television I only watched tech tv (and I know my friend watches at least 1 of their gaming shows)). What if using current tech merged together would allow for a greater user experience. What if all they had to do was boot their computer off of a CDROM and it would allow them to have access to all the content of the new 'TechTV'...
To the story poster... just because someone is a janitor does not make them an idiot (techwise or elsewise)

Satellite Beach Library was my old pimping grounds. Nothing like surfin the net on amber vt100 terminals... funny story anyone who had a library card was able to send 'electronic mail' to another person with card (i think the system running the text terminals also ran the card id system hence anyone with a card was a 'user' on the system and thus open to having 'email'). Put your tinfoil at on for what happens next... i zap an email to my buddy (jokingly of course) that i had planted a bomb under the principals desk at school... somehow the sysops read this and informed the police (who were not amused). There was also a librarian who worked there that strikingly resembled princess Leia
I will look forward to downloading the hack to let me copy the music... or just plug the headphone jack into the mic in, and use sndrec32.exe to make a nice.wav of it.
