Please, please post this kind of stuff in your journal or in a related thread... there's just one more annoying thing than reading the type of post you just made, and that's the kind of post I'm writing right now:S.
For that kind of money I can go out and buy a real Cisco 806 router which is optimized for this use... Of course you can't run a web/ftp/whatever server on a Cisco router, so that's a lot of money for this little box. At home I use an old PIII 450MHz @ 300MHz with a heatsink and 256MB RAM... microATX casing, silent WD 13GB HDD... perfect as a router/webserver/proxy, and if you buy these kind of specs right now, you'd pay about what, 100$?
I got one of these phones a few weeks ago (Hail Europe!) and Nokia provides SyncML sofware on their CD, along with 3 games: Bounce, some card games (Klondike 'n stuff) and Triple Pop.
You can download an updated version of the Videorecorder app from the Nokia site as well, instead of video only, you get video & audio.
I especially like the PC-Suite, you can drag 'n drop an mp3 to your mobile (if it's linked through cable, IR or BT) and it automatically is converted to a.wav/.mid ringtone (including the lyrics, I've got Shaggy's "Sexy Lady" if my GF gives me a call), and you can download all data to your PC/laptop, or make a "real" backup. And last of all, I truly LOVE the fact that it's got an upgradeable 16MB SDcard in it (max 64MB I think).
"We now need computers that sense when we are busy, when we are available for interruption and know when to wait their turn - just as we do in human-to-human interaction," said Dr Vertegaal. So if my eyes are in motion - like reading/. - it means I'm busy? Great, now my boss can remotely monitor my activities and think I'm working! Still a neat concept though... I wonder if you can set the "attention level" yourself. I mean if you're stuck with a problem and just thinking behind your computer doesn't necessarily mean you can be bothered with something else, especially spam. If anything, I want to be left alone....

Yay! Imagine that, holding your harddrive next to your Bosses PC using Snortlike tech... imagine all the pr0n you'll have access to... oh, and company secrets too... No, I don't think that will ever happen, it's just too big a risk. I mean, any black hat running around in your office pretending to be the plumber/cleaner/whatever could hold his disk next to the R&D section's PC. As a sysadmin myself, I would _NOT_ use that kind of tech, regardless of encryption etc. unless there's a dongle/hardware kind of tie in... but even then I would really wait until the tech matured enough for me to be comfortable with.
If only more technically trained people were put in a tight-loop with markteting and advertising... You mean like Cisco does? They require the Sales experts to be certified as well, with some requirements: Networking 101, minimum pass score: 80%
I am not really suggesting RAMDISK, btw - I just think that you can compile your OS / programs with option like "I have massive memory so use it lavishly and don't touch that drive."
Isn't this what Linux Live cd's like Knoppix are about? They create a virtual ramdisk so the more memory, the better. And what's more, they don't touch your harddrive unless you tell them to.
So yes I think it's possible to set your OS up like that, maybe you could ask the guys at knoppix.

Give 'm transparent clothing... _THAT_ would make an impressive demo I would download immediately

will the seat be heated to the point that you can't sit down anymore? Or will you use "flush cooling"? :)
Inquiring minds want to know
It's a joke. Laugh.

Didn't the US try that already in 1945? They just missed it completely because it was in another location already.
This here app for your GFs phone :P
Just don't forget to give her your phone as well, to charge the batteries
I bet you wouldn't say that to your GF now wouldya?
Oh wait... This is /.
Nevermind...I wanted to RTFA, but there was only pictures... what am I to do now?
No you can't... But if you tell me your password you will get this nice shiny pen :)

And if you think moveable nails are neat
I do... you wanna taste of my railgun? >:-)
VirtuaGirl already makes this for the desktop. If they manage to port it they should get a lot of business :)

I was interested when I saw the headline "The Museum of Unworkable Devices" so what the heck, I clicked Read more... funny I got the HP ad though :)

Gee.... this story is sort of a dupe.

Hmm... this definately IS new and surprising in spite of what Hemos is telling us in the article!
