Bottom line if this is true then your company is being price gouged and being offered inferior goods and services ON purpose so that WilliamSoft can play out his personal Passion Play against imaginary enemies.
I work for a class "A" organization and several years ago we did an audit because whole national geographies ran out of static address space. We found that about half of the addresses were never reclaimed and reused. Moreover we found more than 800 undocumented DNS domains internally.
That work will go on with us or without us. Baring some special need for a war economy a-la WW2 there is no particular reason why we have to be good at science or invest much effort in science education. There are simply too many obstacles and competing interests for us to be able to afford everything and clearlt in the marketplace of ideas, science has lost out to some extent. People who want to pursue it though are free in this interconnected world, to go do that somewhere else. If few of our young people acquire the basic skills to do that work in university or beyond then that's simply something that they wont do.
State licences are only useful for transactions in that state. Across the state you have to look to the ICC and if not all states even have laws that each other must respect then the whole question is moot.
Because after the initial golly gee whiz effect wears off no one. NO ONE will have the slightest interest in this. iPod is built for the ADHD generation. No one will sit there for 43 minutes watching a TV show on it. Not when you can get just about everything on DVD in Blockbuster.
Jobs partnered with Disney in order to get some other things developed and Disney jammed their bullshit ABC televsion lineup down his throat in the bargain.
Seriously - my family will not touch at home printing unless you do it the Kodak way which is to place the camera on top of the printer and press one button and walk away. Even the pressing of one button might be too much for them. Otherwise it winds up being my problem and I don't want that job. Also the printers are fairly expensive and it's another inventory of ink I have to manage. Most snapshots are better left unprinted anyhow.
It's not about the phone it's about the carrier and the carriers will just cripple these new concepts so that they can fuck you over on the premium serive charges.
And let's face facts - only about 15% of cell phone owners ever bother to use all the extra features. Not even the camera once they get that first picture email bill.
Clearly the ESA which has the capability to launch this on their own decided to use Russian boosters and a Russian polar orbitally oriented site to toss this up on the cheap. But the Russians were never and are still not big on QA. They figured that the workhorse SS-9 would 'just get the job done' but lobbing a 5Mgton nuke at New York plus minus 2 miles is a LOT different from a precise polar orbital insertion.
I wish them well at the RIAA - I hope they spend ever increasing portions of their shrinking revenue stream on litigating against more and more people. Because in the end you really can't uninvent something. We wil find ever more clever ways to hide from them and other than opening the phone book and randomly suing whole letters of the alphabet there is little they can do about it.

That way we can just pimp out the internet to offshore companies...uh just like now.
No seriously, the EU and UN are merely mouthpieces for the parochial interests of each. Giving control, whatever the hell that means - - what does it mean? No routing to the US? Give control of TLD to Iran? - - would merely grind things to a halt.

Well I know for a fact they grind out more PhD's in the hard sciences than we do. Does that count?
250 million is 20% of the population. Still 250 million is 250 million. Anyway shouldn't you be in the bomb shelter cleaning your M-16?
China has 100 cities of more than one million people. I've seen a percentage of them.
So it really has nothing to do at all with geographic proximity

This would be worthy of Federal Prosecution.
That's how many people China lifted out of poverty. How well did your country do?

not with the satellites you wish you had.
I am shocked that a near monopoly would act in such a way shocked I tell you.
Please please somebody defend MS on this point, I'd love to hear it.
Because in the end all this means is that everyone is fighting for the same meltdown dead end chip architecture space.
Because that's pretty much all that MS can do.
