USA seriously need to get with the program and disconnect carrier from phones sold.
A phone is supposed to be sold by a company (nokia, samsung, motorola and the list goes on) to a customer, maybe in a package bundle with a service plan from a carrier but beyond that the carrier should have no say about what the phone can or can't do.
If one can make xmpp replicate email (in that one can attach files to a message and have them upload to a server if target contact is offline) i think that is very likely indeed.
I wonder how much those returns have to do with either build quality or the lack of android market (fuck you google!). Or perhaps some parent getting talked into buying it by some buttery sales person making the claim that it is like the ipad, only cheaper. Then the return comes when the spawn of said parent throws a hissy fit...

Given that a cable company, that wanted to provide off-site DVR service for their customers, have to keep a separate copy of the same show for each customer, this is unlikely to happen any time soon.
I suspect that the basic issue is that the lawyers and such are to used to thinking in terms of physical media (how it has been since gutenberg) and so want to make the digital world behave in the same, predictable, way. Talk about trying to put a furious bobcat back in the bag.
The natural response to that would be to allow more foreign workers in, but Japan have a very long history of xenophobia. I recall reading about someone that would avoid mentioning what part of the city he lived in, as it used to be the a Korean district in feudal times and still carried a social stigma.
GITS is carped bombed with references to western philosophy. I suspect it is much in the same way as how often a katana shows up in a hollywood action (in the hands of a aryan war god(dess) no less).
Nope, just happened to read about such materials recently. And someone jumping from a balloon with a set of wings and engines strapped to his back. Then my brain gets a trigger to makes me plug these together.
Was there not something recently about a snake that reproduced asexually even tho it had gender? Something about it mixing different eggs to produce much the same effect as when mixing a egg and a sperm?
And even single cell organisms can evolve "rapidly" if there is outside pressure. Hell, we already are seeing bacteria developing resistance to our most used ways of killing them. They may even be evolving that so fast that big pharma is uninterested in researching it, as the ROI will be to low...
the USB charging spec is a bit more elaborate then that.
first of, USB manages power in units of 100mA, with a max of 5 units on a port. This is during normal data operations.
however, if both the port and the device plugged into it understands the charging spec, one can go all the way to 1500mA (15 units) if there is little to no data traffic on the port (usb1 speeds at most, iirc). With the shorted data connectors, the device can draw 1800mA (usb2 cables are rated to handle 1900mA, iirc).
Not sure what os versions and such that support the charging spec right now tho.

Seen it on DSL in europe as well. Kinda silly, as any computer connected can be both a client and a server.

Probably not helped by Apple basically dumping a tarball out there rather then a patch set when first prodded about the licensing issue...

I suspect this may be one reason that everyone carries a bag or backpack, independent of gender.
iirc, the alcohol vending machines are built so that at a certain time of day they deploy steel bars to stop someone from just breaking and grabbing.
While not in a can, how about live crab?

i thought it was about the ada programming language...

As will furniture and faces?
While true, copyright only became a issue when one could make one master layout and press out multiple copies.
Before that, each copy was hand written. Depending on the workmanship it would take as long as the original text, or longer.

it would not surprise me if exfat is part of this process...
These days i would say the "free market" proponents are more likely to have read Ayn Rand then Adam Smith.

could work, if the cape have strands of some material or other that will go rigid when electrically charged.
Tho it would be more like a hang-glider then actually flying unless one also pack some kind of miniature jet or rocket.

dell streak and samsung galaxy tab makes use of this, iirc.

how about updating to IP6 and get ipsec as part of it?
as with anything online, negative reviews are more likely to be posted then positive ones.
and clone what asus did in the first couple of eeepc models...
