You are forgetting, that a cell is divided to sectors. so you actually get 3x 2.4 megabits. Also, 3g cells are smaller than the current GSM cells, and telcos have done a better job splitting cells unlike cable-modem people...
It's still a lot better than the networks today. gprs gives theretical maximum of 384kbs (shared) and a latency of 500-1000ms.
Unfortunatly, due to the high priced 3g licenses, it wont be cheap for a long time.
Pjbox has had a 20Gb mp3 player out for over an year. Why wait for a new player to come, when others use one already?

put that in a regular sized nokia with EPOC and I will PAY for it
Nokia might have a surprise for you... The don't put New phone out that has all the features people
want, they add features one by one, so that you have to buy a new phone every eyear.
But a rebular nokia sized epoc-phone is coming out, probably in their next announcment, and it seems like a real killer.

Esri HAS competition . For example SmallworldGIS Is available For Linux. Smallworld GIS really beats ESRI in all aspects except for perfomance and price. It has a java-like portable virtual machine, and a smalltalk-like programming language, which probably scare lot's of potential users.
Unsearchable net is just a result of ignorance by search bot writers and web site creators.
Ignorant robots.txt usage. A site has all text in their database. Now bots start hitting. After a while, admin notices that bots a churning too cpu time. To fix the problem, admin puts a robots.txt killin bots, instead of creating a light robot-friendly area.
Greedy bots Robot writers usually don't help much by atacking servers in overload bursts, causing mayhem on many sites.
Too limited syntax on robots.txt Why can't we ask bot's to visit only on specific hours? why can't we se a sensible hit rate? Ofcourse at first most bot's would ignore such tags, but forcing
The unindexed. If there a know references to someones personal homepages / scientific article, how could the bot's find them? A Nightly generated site index could help, but raises some privacy questions, if done on a public server.
put the database and web server on different machines. then monitor which one get's more load.
You will also wan't to monitor the amount of traffic
between database and web server, in case you are
"selecting too much" and prosessing too much in the cgi.
I wish I could submit a form where I could tell my intrests and advertisers would use it (via cookies?). I mean, I want to see ads of interesting things, not about diapers (at least now.) The problem is that I don't want this information been connected any ways to my identity. It would probably need protection via law.
A mailing list you should be subscribed to, if you run public services with debian. Relying on/. for security news/instrucions is probably the stupidest thing one can do!
The new version of Microsoft Proxy Server is named Internet Acceleration and Security Server, which nicely abbrevates to I ASS, also known as the guy who decides take one in use...
I think their point is to have punishment microsoft feels, not that they lost 5 billion because of microsoft. Just like car manufacturers have to pay kazziollons for their mistakes.
If they would ask for somthing like 50 million, It would be just a scratch in their quarterly report.
If spam is such a nice thing, why do most spammers fake their headers, their from address and obfuscate the url on the body? Why do spammers connect to internet with accounts they got with fake ID:s. Why do they abuse open relays to hide the real origin of the mail?
I don't think freedom of speech covers speech with fake identity.
uh. Do you really think you will ever see.net outside a borg os? Sure, you can access soap objects wherever you are, but can you run them on anything else than windows?
What's the point if you can remote control Halflife 10 on a windows computer with soap if all the grafics appear on the server?
An XML DTD will eventually replace them, and then unified configuration might be possible. An adequate XML DTD could be self-describing and the configuration application wouldn't have know what it's configuring.
Nope. XML DTD was found to limiting, so they (w3c) invented Schemas . XML begun as a simple solution to a existing problem (need for structured data standard) has exploded to a myriad of rapidly changing standards... Try to keep yourself on track and you'll tongue will die as the amount of letter X having to be pronouced...
Syntax highlighting, bracket matching and compiling, function searching - the most typical ide tasks can be done both. now If I just could get autocompletion (intellisense for MS crowd). xslide already does some autocompletition, so it possible (at least on emacs).
Thats exectly why. Corba is one of the clearest examples of design by comittee. Admitted, I have no idea, if COM* technoligities are any better, but atleast you get gui tools to use existing components easily (vb). With corba, you have to play with IDL, stubs etc... If re-use is harder then re-programming, whats the point?
A solid component model, with easy to use tools for the 80% of cases has been something Linux has missing. Bonobo vs Kparts competition Seems to be finally leading into something usefull.
I mean, how the hell do you firewall a passive
ftp server? or active for clients? add nat and things get screwed. Yes everething is possible, but why do it the hard and unsecure way?
I don't get it too. Why so many people are comfortable with the idea that every cpu on the planet in future would load a OS from a single company.
Dell/Intel/Win2k solution versus a Solaris solution typically comes up 25-50% cheaper on MS's end
Where in the article was solaris? This is about Linux, and Dell/Intel/Linux solution is the same price as a Dell/Intel/Win2k solution. And W2k has become so complex, that I would be carefull in claiming, that it would be easier to run than A Linux Box.
Handhelds and CE devices are continuing to make inroads, embedded solutions like the NT Embedded group makes are popular.
Another scene, with direct competition of Linux. Palm isn't going to disaeppear, and Mobile makers decided to go Epoc. They don't want to give their profit streams to Microsoft.
But dont underestimate MS. They can trhow a lot of money at problems, and a lot of very, very, very good engineers. Don't fool yourselves into thinking that MS will just stop improving products.
Yes, but how long can they do it, when they will have to drop prices to compete with free solutions, that do the same thing? For a while, but in long term they will run out of cash.
I've personally monitored cases, where Commercial Unixen, w2k, and Linux where in table. So far Linux has been always selected. I think a lot of people will be surprised, when MSFT gives their first unexpectedly low annual report.
Here at Finland, radionet and Saunalahti are busy building wavelan network. While the idea is great, at the moment they have many techincal problems.
In practice you need a line of sight and radio frequency is used by many other devices. A common joke is to call it instead of a "wireless Network" a "connectionless network". Still those few who have managed to get a subscription seem to be more than happy.
One nice example of what software patents mean for coders is imaginea a world of "lawyer patents"
What if a "legal argument" in court was patentable? Anyone who first got the idea of referring to the defendants mental condition could patent it and charge anyone else using it in the court. For anything you say in the court, you would need to check first if it was already patented.
Yes, algorithms and patterns are our tools. If I come up with a solution to a problem, I do not want to check the patent database, if someone has already found it before.

Lesson - Dont use ftp.
anonymous file transfers? - use apache
authenticated file transfers - use ssh+(scp/sftp)

Yes, lusers love ftp, but life is hard.
