I recently purchased the novel Triggers on Kobo's website. On the book's page it listed both Smartphone and Kobo eReaders as compatible devices. Clicking on the Smartphone it shows Blackberry, clicking on Kobo eReaders it shows my 1st Gen Kobo eReader. So I purchase the book, the first book I had purchased in about a year. The book automatically shows up on my Blackberry but I can't open it. It shows up in my Kobo Desktop software where I can read it and when I plug in my eReader it says it has finished transferring it to my eReader but it isn't there after the sync. I ended up needing to use Adobe Digital Editions to transfer it over. This was kind of frustrating as there were scant instructions at all. And I was never able to read it on my Blackberry. (The Blackberry is from work)
Most people I know window shop at places like HMV, EB Games and then buy at Wal-Mart, you just can't beat the prices.
HMV has always been over priced, I've avoided it like the pluage for the past decade (Odd thats the same time mp3s starting popping up)
I feel your pain, I had to deal with this for ages, one of our Internal Firewalls honeypots if you scan it. And its an out the box feature from the manufacturer that they haven't created the ability to turn off yet.
For us PCI compliance is mostly about the legacy data, where a couple minutes of physical access on various Point of Sale servers you can rack in a few years of credit card data.
Also retail outlets like to share their passwords and the turnover is huge, so its pretty hard to give everyone their own account if they are only going to be there a day or two before they decide that it isn't all that cool to work at our store.
I picked one up at the beginning of the season, cooks a nice steak, medium-rare in about 6 to 8 minutes.
You change the way you cook with it, you seer everything for a couple minutes per side on the infrared and then move it down.
I've always loved Buzz, he actually wrote about this stuff in his Sci-Fi book Encounter With Tiber. In it he also wrote about the "Big Can" method of building the space station, ie. build the Space Station out of the spent fuel tanks. I think he also had space stations at Lagrange points.
Its like asking do I really need a 72" TV?
Of course you do, cause they are so neat.
It better you have satellites blowing up satellites instead of people as well.
I've seen I few people chime in with Iron Mountain and I agree with them. The software is great, you don't need a fast connection either.
The initial backup can be done onsite with their backup servers (probably saving quite a few days of backing up) and then subsquent backups are only the changes in the file, not the file themselves, so if you have a 6GB SQL data file and 1 record is changed it will only take the change. It also works on online/locked files as well.
You can restore online or if its a big problem they can bring the same backup server on site and do a restore. Disaster recovery software is pretty good too.
I live near one of the storage centes too, there are 3 giant warehouses filled with computer/equipment and storage within 5 miles of my home.
They may be doing this because there is a new SF book out that deals with the Turing Test. Mindscan by Robert J Sawyer. In it instead of creating AI the people that pass the Turing Test instead copy a person's Mind. (And then put the contents in immortal anatomically correct androids.)
A computer can not make good Audio, and that is a well known fact.
You got a few options, for Audio I use a Turlte Beach AudioTron, it has an Optical Digital connection to the Amp, and a PNA or Ethernet connection to your network, both are great. Plus it can play a lot of Streaming Audio formats.
For Video use a PS2, with Ethernet Adapter, Monster Cable and the software called QCast Tuner which pulls any kind of Video off of your network.
This won't allow you yet to get your PC Desktop on your PC but it probably gets everything you really wanted.
If you use a NIC it probably means you have Broadband, Some carriers require you to register your NIC, and I'm pretty sure most of these are in Australia, so it isn't a simple matter of just changine your MAC because if you change it your Broadband will go down.
Us Canucks have a lot of things we can do, we can burn music and share and trade it, we can also get free DirecTV, mostly because of good laws like this one that go beyond the "Though shalt not copy laws" of the US.
Everyone is going to copy their music, so the Canadian Feds came up with a way to legalize and control it and still give money to the artists.
I thought it went Russians (those who became Natives), Vikings, then Columbus.
Now I guess thats changed but if people don't credit the Vikings then they sure as heck aren't going to care about the Chinese

Google shouldn't do it, Caucasians are too damn tall as we learned from the movie Crazy People http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96iJsdGkl44

Blackberries work great for this but you may want to look into a headset that can plug into your hearing aid. The Eli DIRX works pretty good for this too. http://www.elihearing.com/UnitedStatesENG/index.ht m

Hmm, FullXML, is anyone else getting a FullXML template there?
The NEC unit has a built in USB Master without need for a docking station. Though it does need an adapter.
