I've upgraded from 3Mbps to 6Mbps and I noticed that at both speeds I never get to the download and upload limits that I have purchased. I have tested using speedtest.net and other services, but I never get maximum speed. Can someone explain this? Are they short changing everyone?
A camera in a mobile phone is not a high priority feature for me. What I would rather have work properly is a PIM that syncs with Google (or web service) for free. If I wanted to cable sync with my computer then I would go back to using a Palm Pilot. Also, I don't want to pay extra for an enterprise service to get my work calendar and I don't want to pay extra for MobileMe because Apple has not implemented ICS send/receive in the iPhone. I'm high tech, and I agree that PIM on a mobile phone is frustrating.
I agree that we don't need a nanny government to prohibit us from talking on a mobile phone during flight; however, I believe it is poor etiquette to use a phone on any public transportation. Instead they can text, email, or instant message without bothering anyone else.:-) In short, let the airline / market control it.
This has a very strange scope of who it is trying to restrict, but it does not include computer repair technicians. If they corrected the wording to be more general toward computer and IT professionals (instead of guard dog companies), then your ISP, telephone co., cable co., and favorite search engine providers would be in trouble.:-)
Is the Fast Light Toolkit GUI accessible? Does it use the Accessibility Toolkit to make the GUI accessible via the Assistive Technology Service Provider Interface? Can it do record and play back to automate GUI testing?
If ISPs want to filter for copyright content, then are they liable to filter all content categories (eg., porn, export regulated content, etc...). Are they willing to change their status from being a "publisher" to being "editor"?

Instead, I think there should be a SPAMer tax, then the government will have a surplus of funds.

Betamax was superior to VHS, but was defeated because of Sony's poor marketing strategy and higher cost. Will Blu-Ray be another Betamax?
The .exe installer checks for a .NET prerequisite. Google Earth remains the leader on Linux and Mac.
