  1. Re:Hmmm... maybe I do want a Palm(but not a palm) on "Visor" from the Creators of the Palm · · Score: 1

    But you don't get the battery life and you get stuck with the CE UI

  2. New Scientist Article on Study on RF and Genetic Damage · · Score: 2

    Before everyone worries about microwaving their brain perhaps they should read this New Scientist article. "Forget the hype--there's still no evidence that mobile phones will mangle your memories or give you cancer. But the microwaves they emit may be up to something. Meet the fast-growing worms and boozing rats that have the experts baffled...and discover why a phone call might make you quick on the draw"

  3. QuickTime For Linux? on "Open Source" Apple says "No" to Xanim · · Score: 1

    QuickTime if FREE - you only pay for the Pro version

  4. Apple aren't interested on "Open Source" Apple says "No" to Xanim · · Score: 1

    I and a few others have campaigned quite vigorously on the QuickTime Developers and QuickTime 4 lists for Linux/Solaris support to be added to QT. The response back has allways been that they aren't interested (although I have heard different from other Apple sources).

    If you want QT for Linux lobby Apple.

    Or persuade content developers to use Real and persuade Real to do G2 on Linux (Likely).

    Or set up a project to write an Open Source Codec of comparable quality to Sorenson (not easy).

  5. Need a fact checker -- aisle 9 on On Emulation and Transmeta · · Score: 1

    Guess you missed a major event then, the PlayStation 2 was announced last week. /. thread about it is here

  6. Apple aren't interested on Ask Slashdot: Movie Players for Linux? · · Score: 1

    I've been raising the issue of QuickTime ports to Solaris and Linux in the QuickTime developers mailing list for sometime and Apple just aren't interested.

    Theire attitude to a Solaris port is go and talk to Sun, which seems a strange attitude to me.
