We at/. don't just want to know 'what really is the limit', we will find out shortly! They have some spam filter that's supposed to short-circuit account abuse, so just fly a bit under that amount of email and keep the flow constant. First to 100 GB wins!
Why not just have the "verified sources" part of the article, and then the "sandbox" part? Why have a "user talk" page if the front page of the article's being used for that?
They were at Woodstock, but they crashed into Jefferson Airplane and set Jimi Hendrix's guitar on fire... oh wait, they said DON'T take the brown acid! My bad.
Seriously, though, that's enough for windows XP/Vista/etc. plus your favorite games, apps, and so on. Maybe you couldn't put whole slews of videos or images on there, but you could always get 2 of them.
IMHO, This phone just competes with existing phones, it is nothing like an iphone. The iphone for example has NO buttons on the surface of the phone. It is in a completely different league from anything that currently exists on the phone market. The upstage is a good competitor for existing phones though, like against the motokrzr, etc.
I think borders would only be competing with Amazon's book arm. Back in the late 90's, Amazon may have directly competed with an online version of Borders, but now Amazon is like Wal-mart, in that they sell a large swath of other products besides books. Borders may now compete more directly with Barnes & Noble, though, where before Amazon floated them clean past their physical-store rivals.
I dunno, I have a pretty easy time integrating sleep and pleasure, in fact if you work all day and somehow bring your work home, sleep may be the only true pleasurable/relaxing time of your day!
This is like assuming that because A called B and asked for their social security number, that social security numbers are insecure. You still are your own best line of defense against security breaches. Just because you get a call on your deskline doesn't mean it really is I.T. calling back for your password, for example.
Furthermore, If a smartphone is too great a security risk, then choose a different option... I don't understand why people insist on using the latest "security-unknown-or-not-good" device(s) when perfectly good methods of "understood-amount-of-risk" security already exist.
In terms of making "unbreakable" anything, this will be as successful as the stripe in money. Within a week of the Mint putting a plastic stripe in money, there were guys in bars demonstrating how to take said stripe back out. While that is a fairly victimless crime, demonstrating how to hack and debilitate the "government standard" vista configuration will just lead to a massive botnet as everyone (except the appropriate govt bodies, of course) has already figured out.
So when you say that the price range is from sub-$200 to a cool grand, then what you're saying, is the chip prices range from sub-$200 to a cool grand?
The method for arriving at that figure was also tragically lost. A team of monkeys recreated the figure in 3 minutes with a number pad at a cost of $45.
How long until your home broadband connection can be a local relay for you to call or get a call from anywhere on your cell/home for the cost of a local/skypeout call?
Exercising causing a boost in long-term memory ability is not the same as making your IQ go up 20 points by going to the gym. Furthermore, sports/bodybuilding/etc don't have a high IQ requirement for entry, you basically just have to be able to put up with working out all the time. If pro football required a phd, then all pro football players would have a "phd" of some kind. It mostly requires being gigantic and being able to mentally retain some of the rules of football, so mostly that's what the players are mentally tasked with achieving.
"The government are very keen on amassing statistics. They collect them, add them, raise them to the nth power, take the cube root and prepare wonderful diagrams. But you must never forget that every one of these figures comes in the first instance from the village watchman, who just puts down what he damn pleases." -sir josiah stamp, inland revenue department of England, 1896-1919
I fear that this will enable unscrupulous realtors, etc. to make use of income data and geographic positioning to clearly delineate which areas are "bad" and therefore make further attempts to exploit those areas.
3.7 billion unique IP's ought to be enough for anybody.
Sounds like the bay area kids have to upgrade!

That seems like the usual Microsoft strategy, when the new version comes out, the old one is ignored and shut down! (probably a coincidence in this case, but it's still funny).
As it turns out, there are ways to hit that asteroid out of the way, assuming we see it in time. If we don't know it's coming, there won't be crap we can do, because it will be "too close" by that time. One proposed way to hit them out of the way is with interstellar billiards, where you hit a smaller one into a bigger one into the threatening one, and even a slight nudge when it's far off will do the trick.
The only way I've ever heard it referred to is "et cetera", meaning "not bin, not usr, not any of the other dir's, but still that stuff has to go somewhere..."
I dunno where you guys live that those pill-shaped buildings aren't futuristic-looking. NASA should put up a huge one, and grow tons of food in it for the future colonists. Corn is probably the most pressing need, the rest of what we need could likely be engineered from corn oil, etc. First you have to have the facility to get a zillion tons of corn onto the moon... it's easier to grow it then to ship it.

So for 3 grand, you can pirate all the music there is? Or are they still going after the "big traders" for 5+ figure money?

Good point, the only books video games will "lead" you to are books on how to beat the video game!

Then what did I put in my time-traveling delorean this morning? Uh-oh!
I suppose next they'll tell us that time-traveling deloreans don't really come back iced-over, they come back hot.
