You must admit there's a big difference between a hole that allows overwriting "security_check_passed=1" (rare at best) and having a hole allowing the attacker to make the CPU do ANYTHING he wants it to do on return from a broad class of badly written functions.
In Palm Quick Install.. Click on "Add" then select files of type "All Files (*.*)".
This DOES NOT work. After a HotSync, you'll see a warning icon and the message: "There is no application on the organizer to handle this file (0x4005)" in the property sheet of the file, and it will NOT have been transferred to the SD card.
Your clever selection of "All Files (*.*)" has simply relaxed QuickInstall's filtering. QuickInstall is simply agreeing to present what it considers a strange file to the Palm. However, during HotSync, Palm's Exchange Manager essentially tells QuickInstall to: "take that file and shove it up your ass".
I just tested this on a Visio document.
So I can't use my Palm with its handy dandy 1GB SD card to shuttle arbitrary data around, after all. I could fit one or two ISO images on there for God's sake.
I don't need the Palm to know what it is, goddamn it! I just want the Palm to store it and OBEX it other machines for me. This SHOULD BE simple, but it isn't (without 3rd party crapware).
Using a USB card reader doesn't count as anything but a workaround in a Palm deficiency. Of course SD card readers can read SD cards, but I don't always have one with me, and I've got a $300 "Connected Organizer" with a cardslot RIGHT HERE, why should I have to remove its SD card.. ever?!
As for Palm's QuickInstall, it does NOT do what you claim (did you even try it?) I just tried it to make sure. I get a warning icon and a "There is no application on the organizer to handle this file (0x4005)" when I drag a Visio document onto the expansion card in QuickInstall and HotSync. No, the file didn't make it to the SD card.
So... you had two suggestions and neither of them are valid.
I have a Zire72 also, btw. I peeled ALL of the paint off as soon as it started to rip. It looks better with no paint than with ripped paint. It was really nice when it was blue, tho:(

Obviously, you haven't seen the Steve Jobs sex tapes.
Awesome! Her first, um, "job":
Moby Dick (1998) (TV) (special effects assistant)
Of course, her big break was:
Sexy Beast (2000) (third assistant director: Spain)
Also of note:
Phoenix Blue (2001) (third assistant director)

Don't try to dos2unix the directories.
Has anyone ever seen Prof. Ishiguru and

Hmm...
You mean I can get Windows cheaper by
stealing it than I can at CompUSA?
Sounds like a true "5 finger discount".

This guy sounds like a real expert on secure

Maybe that's why there are Kevin Mitnick
heads snowing down his comments page .
I'd be interested in seeing a dump
of OBSD's kernel comments.
yo-toh! yo-toh!
FYI: Remember that "XM" is a (TM),
not a modulation scheme. It's deliberately
confusing.
FYI: Adam Curry's "Pod Show"
is already ON Sirius everyday.

Wow, you just blew my mind.
I'd think the right answer is NINETYSIX, then.
cater-corner nodes is here:
http://www.geocities.com/frooha/grid/node2.html
(Caution: there are a few typographical errors in the math).
You cannot simply add the 1/2 ohm to the cater-corner resistance.
With due respect to the lameness filter,
I present the diagram....Any node's equivalent resistance is the average of the equivalent resistances of its neighbors (by superposition: trust me on this).
[ o/^ Go ask Laplace.... I think he'll know o/^
We know that A (adjacent) nodes have R = 1/2.
We know that D (diagonal) nodes have R = 2/pi.
We need to know resistance of K (knight) nodes.
D is surrounded by 2 As and 2 Ks, Therefore 2A + 2K = 4D.
K = 2D-A
= 2*(2/pi) - (1/2)
= 4/pi - 1/2
So for a node which is a knight's move from the origin:
No, it's (4/pi - 1/2) ohms.

This sequence is indexed by God as:

(YES I googled it!)
So, the answer is 96 or a Google depending on
whether you want to count a Google as a
bona-fide number.
I tend to suspect the GoogleLabs would..
