I believe this is a reference to the movie
Firefox, starring Clint Eastwood. In order to operate the mind-controlled weapons onboard the plane, he has to think in Russian.
I think it would be legal to sell it in the US if it was modified to meet emission & safety standards. I'm not sure how much effort that would take, but the
Yugo is an example.
I believe the issue is that for Australians using this ISP, downloading it from www.openoffice.org will incur bandwidth charges (as opposed to downloading the competing application from the ISP's official download siter).
Would GPS tracking for fleet vehicles work in NYC, or is it inaccurate/imprecise? I know that in some parts of DC, I get no signal or a delayed signal (despite almost no buildings over 160 feet (48 meters) & a generally clear view of the sky).
What if it's an emergency & you don't have the time or the resources to count sponges (like an emergency room)?
I have one, thinking about selling it

I got mine this summer, & I think it's great. However, I don't have a lot of time to use it right now (coverage during the holidays, & then end-of-year closeout) so I'm thinking of selling it. I don't trust eBay or amazon, would craigslist be a good alternative? Or should I just ask family & friends?

10,500.00 TWD = 323.944 USD, according to www.xe.com .
Most pay phones in my area (Washington DC) cost more than a quarter (between 50 cents to a dollar, & that's just for a local call). At those rates, a pay-as-you-go cell phone starts looking more reasonable.
I used 1204 minutes last month. The month before, it was 1345 minutes. I don't even think I use the phone that much, I hate long phone conversations. Not everyone has the same usage patterns.
You do realize that attacking certain infrastructure components could lead to injury and/or loss of life? Examples: air traffic control, traffic lights in a city during rush hour, a computerized railway system, even a water treatment plant (oops, too much bacteria was left in the water).
It is possible to move around *and* be connected to a power source (car charger, or small dynamo attached to a bicycle wheel).
I believe the OP's point was that given the ubiquity of opportunities to use a USB charger, it makes sense to charge the phone/device whenever you can (a viewpoint with which I agree - I have 3 separate chargers; home, work & in my car).
Document the fact that you asked for some type of encryption & were denied. Then, get a USB drive or SD card & keep all of the confidential data on it (and remember to keep in separate from the laptop when you're not using it). That's not much (there's the risk of losing the USB drive/SD card), but it's better than nothing.
I'm not saying that there isn't/wasn't an NSA-requested backdoor in Windows, however I'm sure that they wouldn't make it obvious by calling it NSAKEY (most likely, it would have been sneaked in as an undocumented API).
What privacy do you currently have with your current cell phone?
They know who you've called.
They know where you were located when you called.
They know how long you talked to that person.
They have a history of sites you've visited from your phone.
They already do targeted ads (at least, Sprint does - how else would I get a DC-specific ad when I'm in DC, but a Baltimore-specific ad when I'm in Baltimore?)

I would like to think that a) North Carolina has a Good Samaritan law and b) it would apply in this instance.
You *could* fork it, you know.

How about showing some personal and/or parental responsibility?

That's a significant amount for the average (or maybe I should say median) Indian family.

new KITT (a modified Ford Shelby Mustang) is certainly w00d-inspiring.
Why do AT&T & Verizon Wireless have incomplete applications? Is it due to some type of legal issue (or issues), or did they screw up their paperwork?

1. Power the cellphone off.
2. Power the cellphone off.
3. Power the cellphone off.
See how difficult that was?
As far as call quality - ask your family and/or friends that have cellphones about their experiences, & purchase accordingly.

This will be as useful (or rather, as useless) as the V-chip. Does anyone know anybody that uses the V-chip? I sure don't.

- They know where you were located when you called.

So what would be different about Google?
