While you would catch a "larger amount" of signal with a bigger antenna, you would also catch an equally larger amount of noise unless the antenna is focused more on the source of the signal. The task of the dish antenna is to provide stronger usable signal not in absolute terms, but in relation to the background noise. The gain of the parabolic antenna is proportional to the diameter of of the dish and inversly proportional to the beam width. Therefore a bigger dish means a more focused (narrow) signal.
The ability to play back SMS messages in morse code would be very useful. Imagine listening to a text message in morse code as it comes in - this would be the ultimate chick magnet!
I would love to have (pay for) a phone that plays back incoming sms messages in morse code. The closest thing I saw was a phone that played... --... (SMS) when a new message arrived. Does anybody know of such phone?

I have one. Too bad it locks up and hangs all the time and cost more like $250. And the little control widget is absolutely useless for managing a DVD full of MP3s. But it's a good start:)

I'm non-native english speaker (seven years in the U.S., 28 yo) and I could read most of scrabled text just fine, although not as fast as regular text. Longer words (e.g. imuilntinag) or out of context sentences are definitely takes more effort to descramble.
Try this:

Now ISPs can simply block a port on their big switch and forget about it. An opt-out service would require them to develop a system of individual profiles for customers. That means more headache and costs money for them to manage the system.
Is there any limit on how lazy you americans can become? Anybody can learn 5WPM code with just a little effort. Go ahead sit on the couch and eat mcdonalds whole day and don't learn anything. Us CW fans don't want to see you fat butts on HF bands anyways.
Upon closer examination the teen turned out to be a childish 40+ CEO of a large software company who created some serious holes in his operating system software.

Yes, it DOES play mp3's from a DVD just like it would play a CD with mp3's. I've only tried DVD+R but I believe it supports DVD-R as well.
