Take each J2ME phone individually. You've got tens, probably hundreds of possible targets to choose from, and it's probably trivial to port between them. Or you could go with the iPhone, which you can't even develop for in the same language.
You most certainly can develop for all iPhones in the same language.
Oh, you meant the same language as J2ME phones? Hang on, I thought you were arguing against developing for iPhone?!
Whether or not "no multi-touch" was the intended criticism, it is nonetheless a valid criticism. But you just keep telling yourself it's fanboyism if it makes you feel better.
How does it apply? Presumably this fraud is not perpetrated by Tesco or Wal-mart; they have simply employed people who have inserted rogue devices into credit card readers.
I actually think... that the girl on the right is better looking. But the girl on the left would be more likely to hook up with most slashdotters. Therefore to most slashdotters, she will be more attractive.
I don't need to be good at chess to dismiss him as arrogant -- I'm making that judgment on the basis that he thinks he knows how Deep Blue works. Saying to IBM "A chess engine isn't capable of that" is like saying to the Wright Brothers "vehicles aren't capable of flight".
Someone must have been very pleased with themselves with that outcome. "Don't worry, people won't be tied to mobile phone contracts... [under breath] as long as they're damn good hackers!"

Sure, the laws of physics have given rise to some pretty amazing dynamics.
That doesn't mean that they were put in motion by some bloke with a beard who lives in the sky.
If only there were a way to vote with one's feet ;P
Many thousands of slashdot readers have -- by not replying to your comment -- made their statement that they don't like you or what you're saying.
Presumably, having been on the receiving end of such a crystal-clear indictment, you'll be changing your position on this any moment now.
So it's you that's responsible for all those extensions to term of copyright!

You're so naive it's almost funny. How much money do you think 5310 users spend on mobile apps?
I'm lost. Are you referring to what Superbanana wrote, or what hansamurai wrote?

And who md5sums the md5sum?
it would be quite easy to make sure that each voter only get one number (which number the voter gets is not recorded anywhere)
Please elaborate!
Becoming Apple is *exactly* Google's entire purpose for having Android in the first place.
What, so they can sell more hardware?
Repeat after me: Google do not want to become Apple, any more than Coca-Cola want to become Ford.
Ya beauty!
If we bury it, we can dig it up later and release it into the atmosphere to counteract the next ice age ;)
Not necessarily; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polywell
Exception at line ("Then keep chopping it down every two years"): Attempt to chop down an already chopped-down tree.
WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?!
(Wal-Mart are required by US law to maximise their shareholders' profits...)
This is the TLA police; we're doing the WWW rounds tonight and you're SOL.

Wow.

The original goal was to make machines think.
That's not quite the same as figuring out how our mind works. Each informs the other, but they are opposite sides of the coin.
Many believe no computer would have ignored the material based sacrifice Garry made in match 6
Such arrogance! If Deep Blue had played differently, it might have lost the game. So why damn it for the move it made?
"He's the fake!"
"No, he's the fake!"
We probably will not produce it by accident, either, unless and until we are reproducing the human mind.
If you assume substrate independence, you end up here.
