Let's hope that they've engineered a relatively foolproof way to ensure that user data (or their own data, in some cases; one airport was using unencrypted 802.11b to exchange sensitive data) cannot be sniffed by other people over the air.
On a barely related note, I've heard that most "Wal-Mart Supercenters" (bleh, I hate that store) connect to their gasoline stations via 802.11b to transfer information.
One would thing they would want to publicize these items.
Considering that the service has only been in a fraction of Verizon's coverage area, they may be attempting to maintain the option to retract their company from the 3G market in case significant service problems arise.
Yes, they've most likely executed extensive tests on the technology, but it is logical to wait and ensure that the implemented technology is stable before asking $30-50 a month per individual for the privilege of using it.

Review: Kung Pow

Yeah, but even when they aren't prescreened there are usually more reviews than there are presently...
It doesn't seem as though many movie critics are acknowledging this as a "true" film. Whereas the majority of recent theatrical releases have already been reviewed at least 40 to 70 times, the Movie Review Query Engine lists only 14 reviews for Kung Pow.
Roger Ebert hasn't released a review for the movie, either. Oh, and all 14 of the reviews are negative. It appears that everything remotely amusing was included in the trailer.
Katz is, for once, correct. Skip the movie; read James Berardinelli's review instead. It's probably more humorous than the actual film.
On the Hardy toll road in Houston, I was able to connect to eight wireless APs at 70 MPH (so read the log when I reached my destination). Three even went so far as to assign IP addresses via DHCP.
I would suppose that says something about wireless security.:p

You can most likely contact Mr. Chiu via his website contact information (at alexchiu.com). He may not be receptive to your idea of assuming his body; you may simply wish to transfer your mind onto his ATM card the next time he stops by San Antonio.
Perhaps you should check out Alex Chiu's solutions to your problem. However, wouldn't the magnetism damage critical components of such a complex, sentient ATM?:)
I heard about a ring of theivery around here a few years ago. The theives would simply request a test drive from a gullible salesperson who would allow them to drive off alone. They would then drive the car into an eighteen wheeler's trailer waiting on a corner a few blocks away.
Programs such as the ISS and the space shuttle give NASA a chance to figure out what to expect on these long term missions (medically with their astronauts and physically with their equipment), not to mention allow them to increase their skills as engineers (we don't want a Mars mission's shuttle to explode somewhere in between).
There are many, many benefits to the space shuttle and ISS.
So we have a reputable, giant hardware/software/etc. company backing up a P2P filesharing system. Perhaps if the RIAA or MPAA persue IBM, a standard could be set against their futile attempts to stop filesharing (because we know P2P = piracy) on the Internet.
A government mandated ban (due to a court ruling for the RIAA or an equally greedy bunch) on TCP traffic containing a certain protocol (FastTrack, for example) in order to "save the artists from copyright violations."
It's possible in today's world. And then he may just get what he wanted: a lawsuit against Cisco for not hardwiring the ban into their routers.

Not just planets, but some moons too.

To be honest, if it were the end of "cyber BS(ing)," you'd no longer have editor access to Slashdot, now would you, Katz? :P
Agreed; my HP Omnibook 6100 is a wonderful notebook.
70 fps in Q3, fully compatible with Linux and Windows XP, integrated WiFi compliant 802.11b, etc.
Very well designed notebook, in my opinion.
Perhaps you should use the "Viagra" beta boot disks. Much more efficient, I've heard.

So, in a way, you're describing Slashdot itself.

Yes, I can.

Sounds like modern society to me! "My scooter goes from 0-5 in 5.2!"
Steve Jobs went ga-ga over an endorsement, not over the new kids toy, err, piece of modern technology. :P
You mean there's no such thing as a phaser (TM)? My existence is futile (har har) now!

No benefits, eh?

I'm not absolutely sure. That red "X" is rather impressive, however. :)
Imagine this:
A government mandated ban (due to a court ruling for the RIAA or an equally greedy bunch) on TCP traffic containing a certain protocol (FastTrack, for example) in order to "save the artists from copyright violations."
It's possible in today's world. And then he may just get what he wanted: a lawsuit against Cisco for not hardwiring the ban into their routers.
As far as I have been made aware, the FastTrack software is designed to be a pseudo-hybrid of both. It's quite possible I'm mistaken, however.
And gazuka, I love that CD (referring to your sig).
