With good augmented reality they would be an aid to increase saftey. At night the system (which can see infrared) will alert you to that deer about to bolt into the highway.

Last I checked there were some area codes not available. Now when I try to check Google no longer has the list available. Anyone know where the list is hidden?
I've seen them on sale from surplus sites like bgmicro and weirdstuff. I use mine to inventory my DVDs and Books(well, hoping to get started on the books real soon now.).
I did read the C&D and it claims that "PODCAST READY" and "MYPODDER" contain most of Apples iPOD trademark and all of their "POD" trademark. They are in fact objecting to the words podcast and mypodder directly because they contain the letters "P", "O", and "D" in that order.
The podcasts that I listen to usually source their music either from the podsafe Music Network at http://music.podshow.com/ or directly from artists they know.
Why would you rule out a computer but allow a stand alone box (I assume thats what you meant by set top box)? The stand alone recorder is really just a specialized version of a computer with a very targeted use and very likely uses CD drive hardware that is nearly identical to a computer CD burner in the same way that some low end DVD players actually have a IDE based DVD drive in them and can be repaired when that drive fails by gutting a PC DVD drive and installing it in the set top DVD player.
Also, I do not believe that any "Music" CD's in the US carry any additional tax/tariff on them like they do in Canada where the additional tariff goes to the recording industry, they are simply manufactured to be more compatible with stand alone players. For example, my wifes minivan would only play "Music" CD-Rs reliably but the player in my car would play any old CD-R you put in it even CD-RWs(useful for pod-casts).
Talk about US Centric. ITMS Europe is based in Luxembourg and its terms of service are governed by English (as in England) law, not US law.
That said, if Norway was part of the EU this would not be a problem for Apple as I think that they would be able to choose any particular EU member states laws (in this case England) to apply, but since Norway is not AND apple got a Norwegian TLD for ITMS Norway AND nicely translated the site into Norwegian a Norwegian using the site would likely assume they are dealing with a Norwegian subsidiary operating under Norwegian law. If on the other hand ITMS Europe used a.uk TLD, even if they translated the site, I think they could justifiably say that the Norwegian person coming to the site would be expected to know that they are dealing with a site operating in the UK, under UK law.(yes I know that TLD use is not strictly tied to geographic location)
Youd be surprised. Especially with employers that have to be HIPAA compliant. My emloyers policy: No cameras, camera phones, flash drives, flash music players, PDAs etc.
When I got married I had to do this with my wifes AOL email. If you forward too many emails in a short period of time AOL will assume your a spammer and automatically freeze your accounts e-mail privilages. Additionally, some people refered to using a mail client and IMAP, but the AOL client stores the email locally in a propritary format. A previous post did mention "aoleave" which has (or points to) a utility to convert the mailbox file. And another post refered to a gmail uploader.
Yes, but have you released it with DRM in the format of my choice? For example the Ray Kurzweil Reader (see http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/07/ 04/1125202&tid=216&tid=99&tid=14 for more info) was released for free but with DRM in a locked Adobe PDF and only in that format. I am unlikely to ever set at my computer and read this despite it being interesting but if I could put it om my Palm I would. I have never read any novel length work on my computer but have read several on the Palm both free and for pay.
In Doctorow's instance he released the PDF's and relied on his fans to do the conversion to various formats (and is happy to host those versions on his site as well) saves him work and spreads his work farther. There are instances where I have gone to the trouble of breaking the DRM on a piece of media in order to use it on another device, but I respect the creators rights and don't distribute them!
You say all choices are voluntary but you make it hard for your content consumers to make their choices.
I use S.T.R.I.P. "Secure Tool for Remembering Important Passwords" running on my palm OS handheld (Palm IIIxe). The encrypted DB is backed up when the palm hotsyncs so if I ever lose the handheld I can restore it to a new one.
by having it on my handheld which is very nearly always with me I don't have to rely on the app running on whatever system I'm working on at the time (various windows, Linux, Solaris, MVS, and others)
Hold on there, my employer runs a massive computer system using all custom software. The software we write is not for sale to the public in any way and would generally be of little interest to the public (other than the 6 or so direct competitors in our market for our type of services). That not withstanding our code base does and should have copyright protection. Unpublished does not necessarily mean it is not being used for comercial gain. Just because the IP is unpublished should not cause it to lose protection.
You need to get yourself winkey http://www.download.com/3000-2344-913626.html?tag= lst-0-1 It will let you map functions/programs to combinations of the windows key with other keys. By default winkey-Backspace brings up the calculator. I use it at work. At home I have a keyboard with the special buttons and do use the calculator key but my work supplied keyboard at work lacks the special buttons.
But in reality, much like the DVD-R vs. DVD+R, wont the player manufactures just build drives that can read both. Granted that DVD-ROM came out before the recordable formats so older players have dificulty with one or the other(or both) recordable formats but more recient modles can read both. Won't the drive/player makers accomodate both? Or is the difference so drastic that the same mechanism simply can't read both with the firmware of the player controling the servos differently to allow for the different disk structure?

More likely they will stop when they run out Mars.

Yeah. Radio Shack and IBM had cue codes in their catalogs. I have a USB cueCat with an IBM logo.
It is a derivative work based on a state document. Not Copyright-able. However, the picture as a separate component might be. Maybe.

Anyone know if they are going to be broadcast in a 90 minute time slot like scifi did awhile back?

IIRC Apple gets like 9 cents and the recording label gets the rest. And that is before the cost of running ITMS.
Is ITMS Europe doing business in Norway or are Norwegian customers doing business in Luxembourg where ITMS Europe is based?

No, just the area encompasing the six appolo landing sites. The moon is much larger

The complete Criterian Colection $4,999
and in either case most banks will waive the $50 if your a good customer.
