  2. Interesting given how well MobiTV has done ... on ESPN Mobile Reaches The End Of The Road · · Score: 1

    How many subscribers has MobiTV added in the last year? Over a millon? Over two million? That is about double what Blackberry has done, which is everyone's darling mobile service.

    I think this market has a long ways to grow ... but not with proprietary device/carrier lock in.

  3. Synaptics touchpad - the best input device ever on Input Solutions for Repetitive Stress Victims? · · Score: 1

    You never have to use your thumb. A number of Dell and IBM laptops have them. I will not buy a laptop that does not have Synaptics touchpad.

    I am pretty sure that this Marimba product does all the above:

  5. Hyrid system worked best for me on Java Development with Ant · · Score: 1

    I completely rewrote my previous company's build system in Ant and Make. I used Make to do all the cross platform macro and definition setup and Ant to compile and jar the classes. The build performance gains were incredible. I would have used all Ant, but it just doesn't have the text manipulation functions that are built in to Make that I needed. Plus, a hybrid system of Ant and Make gives you time to transistion as much as you want to Ant on your own schedule instead of having to take a big bang approach to a new build system.

  6. Re:Version control system minimum requirements on Designing a New Version Control System? · · Score: 1

    I liked the way Sun's Code Manager resolved conflicts best. It would build a list of the files there were in conflict during the merge and then present them in a graphical three-way diff tool. I believe Perforce's system is similar.

    I have actually used the Perforce three-way graphical merge tool to resolve conflicts during a merge using CVS. It can be called from the command line just like Sun's Code Manager.

    Perforce's tool is free and I am sure they have thought of it becoming a standard like you mentioned.
