...beleive me I was the first to drool over the Tmobile's specs, I know it doesnt have a color screen, but isnt Msoft coming out with a slimmed down OS for Kyocera phone with CE built in? Like others have said, if you cannot synch with the desktop, its not really that usable.
I think I'll wind up staying with my ipaq 3650 and my Aircard 300 and if I need it, snap on my little thumb keyboard. Only 19.2K on a good day, usually 9600 for data, but its $50 unlimited data per month through AT&T CDPD. That and a cheapie Nokia until an all-in-one device which isn't a Palm OS comes out. Tmobile's Pocket PC/phone looks good, too, but another $500 ipaq?
I still use them, although I only use it for my own personal web pages. If helping someone else to build their own site, I would recommend to use the META tags for keywords.
I know they lose about $30-90 on each unit they sell, but now with more modded units they put more R&D into making the new Bios, changing routines, code, etc. Like everyone else says, more time and the hackers will beat this, it just puts them one step back.
I think it's a great centrally-located database for all BBSs domestic and international. I have a link on ssa bbs to it, since I think its good that people sign on and register where they used to call. The bbs community might be smaller than it was, but it'll never die. My old bbs was up in like 1982 on a c64 running a whopping 300 baud and had "high speed" of 1200. Gez, Cnet software, what a blast from the past. How far we have come with technology. lol Now, I run a 4-port SynchroNet bbs at telnet://ssabbs.com for old-times sake and some networked message boards.
For the time it was made, the effects were 80's, but the worst was Zaphod's second head. Rubber bouncing around, but entertaining. Loved the BBC series for its time, all the books very humorous and well written.
If I remember correctly, that was more of a sustained WHIP motion, couldnt guess the G's of that ride. How about the spinning ride where the floor falls out?
I have read a few articles on the new specs and it appears there always will be away to hack into wireless networks. They look promising for speed and less interference with 2.4Gig (802.11a that is.)
Other than Barclay's Holoaddiction, and maybe Geordi trying to find a woman, I guess the crew could spend all of their time in there for uknowwhat. (wink) (wink) (nod) (nod) say no more, say no more...
Something the cellphone carriers can charge us an extra $20 a month to do. Sounds good for ring tones, if you're into that kind of thing, but as someone mentioned, your cellphone does contain some pretty private info - emails and phone numbers. Hmmm.
How about that? Put it into a DESCENT map.
Actually, I enjoyed Tron, Robotron, Satan's Hollow and Defender, personally, but always enjoyed the 2600 for what it was then. How many people actually played WARLORDS on the 2600 with 3 other players? That was the beginning of the addiction for me.
I remember being at the WTC the weekend before 9/11 and calling a friend of mine who joined me for that trip to WTC and then the South Street Seaport for dinner. I had been in the towers before, but couldn't accept the fact that they both were gone. Looking up into the sky along the side of the buildings from the ground, they seemed like they were permanent. Sad that other people's ways of life are so against the Western worlds'. Some people say its because of the US's involvement in the middle East, others for our foreign policy in general, some say for jealousy of what a great country the Citizens of the USA enjoy living in. For whatever reason good vs. evil, East vs. West, Islam vs The World, whatever it might be considered, we bear the loss of fellow humans, friends, loved-ones in a terrible, cowardly act against freedom and what we beleive in. I'm hoping and praying that 9.1.02 is a safe and uneventful day.

I'd rather have a nice clear copy on DVD personally, but it is nice they're trying to push somewhat of a download-per-view to show it can be done and perfected in the future. I probably watch my copy of Blazing Saddles here and there a few times a year, so I don't think Id have the need to have it viewable on just my 19 inch monitor.

I'll take two of those and replace the 120Gb drives in my Tivo (have to look into if they'd be supported.) Bless them both and let's see...that's 400+hours of high quality (not best) video. What for? ST:TNG, SNL and Junkyard Wars!

I would think the adult responsible for that minor would be responsible for any contracts the said minor agreed to. If they're not legally bound to it, it is quite a loophole...any lawyers around who might know?
And how long did this individual wait until he decided to "sue" for his patent? How about UBID as well? Crazy people.

Just like in the commercial....How about now? Can you ping me now?

That I'd be interesting in finding out, but it's probably along the lines of d00dz and Warez as far as its origin. More useless trivia.

That'll allow you to fit 4 nice pics on that 16Meg card you have laying around. Thank God for my IBM Microdrive 1 Gig.

For small wireless installations (personal/home/small user), why not just limit the MAC address of those who are permitted on the wireless network?
