"claim that SunnComm's reputation has been falsely damaged"
How can they claim false damage? It seems that alerting stockholders to the utter ineffectiveness of the company's product is allowing the company's reputation to suffer its due damage.
I can't believe you're trying to abridge this company's right to free speech!!!
Weight loss would be primary benefit

I'd have to think it great if you could lose weight by sitting and reading a book in a dark room by light generated from the calories already in your system.

Leigh.. I'm curious how you were able to read SMS messages? I was not able to do this (though I was able to know when they arrived). I found myself wishing that they'd put SMS and Email and all such in a core library rather than encoding this in the apps.
I posted elsewhere in this thread about it, but my T-Mobile Sidekick 'MorseChat' client offers vibrate and LED flash as 'sounder skin' options, along with around 8 other authentic sounds.
Since the Sidekicks are all locked (hail the wisdom of wireless providers!), I can only refer you to this page to read about my beta-quality handheld client.
I coded up a Java MorseChat applet -- it requires Sun Java 1.4 or later but provides very faithful transmission of your characters as encoded.
Give it a try!
It interoperates with the version of the client that runs on my T-Mobile Sidekick (aka Danger Device)... read about it and a concept for a dedicated device at this site
Sadly, since these phones are locked, there is no easy way for me to offer the beta quality Danger app for others.
Goldman purchased all patents he thought relevant before launching MailBlocks. Therefore, before attempting to raise prior art examples, it would be worthwhile to check their filing dates.
Well, for one thing they place a needless step in the path of users attempting to find information they desire.. that of finding "where it is". If I want my banking records, I should just search for files bearing the "banking" stamp rather than find the door the the maze in which I hope they will be found. I think a query-based storage/retrieval system places "file search" in its rightful place in the process (as the entry point) rather than as a fallback to be resorted to when the user is unsure "where to look".
Another weakness is that the impose an arbitrary order to what is really an unordered series of attributes the files being stored answer to. A user may decide to store my vacation plans in ~/personal/banking . But an equally valid choice is ~/banking/personal (or any number of other "places"). The problem becomes vastly larger when a large file system has multiple users storing files in it and looking for files they (or others) have placed there. People misfile information or fail to find files they are looking for. But the honest truth is that these two places SHOULD be the same place, and an attributed file system could treat them as such.
HFS implementations often attempt to sidestep this issue by providing search tools which are lame in every real-world enduser system ever made. They treat "search by attribute" as a recovery mechanism
The schema choices made when creating the hierarchy optimizes the storage according to a particular philosophy and obstructs those users who have a different need than those anticipated by the designer of the hierarchy structure.
The cell phone user receiving this hypothetical call is the one who introduced the additional expense... why would it be appropriate for the land-line caller to cover this?
It's just a subsidy from the sensible, land-line using folks (you know them... the ones you can understand when they speak to you) to increase usage of the terrible North American wireless notwork.

This encouraging display of support is a notable serene one, but luckily not an isolated instance of online gamers quietly convening to honor a departed fellow player. "Missing Man" formations and fly-pasts in the massively multiplayer flightsims (WarBirds... or Aces High) are (alas) frequent. Also not unheard of is for someone to write of a personal setback or hardship (e.g.: flood destroying his/her home) and find checks totalling over $1000 arriving from squadmates and friends who heard about the plight through a BBS.
I love that spirit.

What's wrong with hierarchical systems?

Maybe they could send in a hobbi to listen at the door.. or prod it with a ten foot pole? tone
