Not only that - at my university in Norway (ntnu) we have official sites like studweb.ntnu.no and fagweb.ntnu.no (stud meaning student, fag meaning subject).
Whow - I think I've never read a post in which I've agreed to everything, only to realize when I reach the end that the poster has reached an end conclution that's really (as I see it) utter madness.
Facinating how sane reasoning can lead to insane conclutions.
Where I live (Oslo, Norway), we have a localized version of monopoly with Oslo streets. I once tried to have a beer in every street on the board during a weekend. I almost made it:)
I guess they want the older users who are likely to buy this phone to get a subscription, not pay as you go. Afaik there's a lot more money in having regular customers than pay as you go customers, at least here in Norway.
Uhm? Isn't that the point of this phone? That it's supposed to be extremely easy for anyone to use, so that the ones that will never ever use a calendar, camera or ringtone won't have to use a phone with too many choices...
The problem with this is that you don't get the same experience while watching movies at home. Although you can get the same quality with good equipment, it's just not the same as going to the theatre.
I believe the reason is that when you go to a theatre you totally dedicate yourself to watching a movie. There's no talking, no phones, no pause button - you watch the film. Period.

Actually, there is an initative to make things play on most mp3-players. It's called http://www.playsforsure.com/ Plays for Sure and is Microsoft's plan to rule the world of mp3-players.
It is supported by a lot of manufacturers, the only problem is that most mp3-players sold are iPods who will probably never ever support wma.
And before you bash me, my next mp3-player will also be an iPod:)
In Oslo, Norway, we have already had this service for a year or so. You dial either of two numbers, one leads you to the nearest taxi-stop, whilst the other gets the nearest free cab. During peak hours only the first one is open, to make sure that cabs are distributed in a fair manner to customers. It works beautifully; both customers and drivers gets an easier life.

Insightful? wtf? I really hope parent was meant as a funny post... And whoever modded it insightful should be ashamed!
