Yes, that maybe so, but there is no home VOIP cordless phone that I've seen. The killer app for this is a cheap way to integrate your current cell phone into your home 802.11b network, so when you are at home, you call through your WiFi connection. That router is acting like a Digital-Analog converter, sending your voice to the regular POTS. I'm in the market for a cordless phone system right now, any suggestions? (Its for my parent's house, nothing too expensive, but it needs to be long range and cool looking)
Real phreaking is sneaking out of your parents house at ungodly hours to clip into your neighbor's line, or to build a BlueBox and scream 2600hz down the handset. Those were the days.
You know, after I pushed submit to the story, I wondered, "will this get posted because it is an interesting read" or "will this get posted because the Slashdot crowd wants to talk about thier penis size". 6 comments down, and I've got my answer.
Best story, ever. I see a pretty decent looking PC by the garbage cans as I carry out my refuse. Printer, Monitor, keyboard, mouse, and ofcourse the case. I take the case home, plug it into a monitor and start her up. Its a PIII 500, elated, I wait for the boot. Windows begins to boot, but it has some errors after you get into it. My hypothesis, Windows stopped working correctly, so they thought they needed a new one. Oye.
For those who will denouce this as unnessassary and a waste of money, look at your HandyCams with thier image stabilization, or those nifty Mirror-Chip based TVs and projectors LINK. Tickle down technology is very important to us nerds/geeks/uberusers.
1. So disallow cookies! It works fine with out them.
2. Google uses that statistical information to improve thier search algorithems.
3. What are they talking about?
4. Would you share the reason why your search engine is 100X better than the next runner up?
5. That is the DUMBEST reason ever
6. The Google toolbar TELLS you it is spyware, multiple times, and gives you the option of NOT participating.
7. The Google cache is just as illegal as the cache you have of the site on your computer. Except that they are using THIER bandwidth to provide a service, for FREE.
8. Google is the best search engine out there, come up with something better and someone will make fun of that.
9. Ok, maybe THIS is the dumbest reason ever. Most paranoid too.
Cost myfriend, cost. If you figure the amount of time and money it would take to rewire an airliner, PLUS take into account the weight of all that cable, it would be a no-go decision real fast. The airlines are not making money right now, cheap people like me make sure of that (MYR-CLT-BOS $159!!). They need a cheap easy way of charging thier customers for something they want anyway. The easiest way to do this is with WiFi, hands down.
Someone is going to point out that terraforming is good, someone is going to say it is bad. Flames will be exchanged, and people will be modded down. Can you feel the LOVE that is/.?

Here is a mirror.
I Didn't get a chance to fix the links to the images, so Here is the directory with a dump of them.

Excuse me, but have you read the FAQs of Slashdot? Click here if you have not
You Sir, have a great city named after you.

Is it legal for the ISP to sniff your packets? I'm very ignorant when it comes to such things, but this screams privacy issues.
I've personally renamed my Phoenix browser as "Firestorm". Make it sound all cool. But hey, what do I know, I'm just a drunk college student.

Well, I think I'll just forward them the link, because if I talk to them in real life then they'd realize I wasn't 6'2" with a boy builder's body.
Fool, You should read my mind, this 'talking' is so inefficient!
