The UK Mobile networks either operate their own public wifi networks (O2 and T-Mobile) or have an agreement with another wifi operator such as BT to provide access for their customers. The phones are configured to connect to that wifi network when in range, so that when you go to a busy location such as a train station or shopping centre, it takes pressure off the network, and the customer benefits because the data they use doesn't count towards their bundled allowance.
It is great that it replaces your laptop and desktop, but does it replace your iPad? My iPad doesn't replace my laptop or desktop, but it does do some things that I used to attempt to do on them, which it wasn't really suited for. Mainly the ability to pick it up and read whatever it is I want to read within a few seconds.
They are registered as an "electronic money issuer" in Luxembourg. A registration in one EU country is valid in all EU countries. It is not quite the same as a bank, the main difference is that there is no deposit insurance in the event that they go bust, however, unlike real banks, they are required to keep customers' money in a separate ring-fenced account.
$600bn in US Dollars. Using bank exchange rates, that would translate to $660bn in Oz Dollars. Using tech company exchange rates, it would translate to about $1800bn in Oz Dollars.
The Washington Post isn't available on Kindle, but it is available on the iPad. Or at least that is the case on the UK stores of both. I can get the New York Times and loads of other US papers on the UK Kindle Store.
Why shouldn't people elsewhere in the world be able to pay the same £145/year to watch the BBC? I'm sure many people would pay, and it would bring more money into the country.
Then you look at a street map to see where your destination is in relation to the nearest subway station, and where you are in relation to the nearest subway station; and the subway map to figure out how to get by subway between the two stations.
The bug caused the computer to say that the Sub Postmaster should have money that they didn't have.
They receive money from selling stamps, road tax discs, passport applications and so on, and hand out money for welfare benefits payments. The difference between those two things is what they should have left in the till. If the computer records the transactions incorrectly, then it will show an incorrect end of day till balance.
America's second largest employer is Walmart, 2.2m worldwide, not all of them work in the US. For example 180,000 of them work for their Asda subsidiary in the UK. The largest employer, and indeed the largest employer in the world is the US Department of Defense[sic] which has 3.2m employees. They will be mostly Americans even if they don't work in the USA.
I read somewhere that British Telecom has a stock market value that is lower than the scrap value of the copper cables it owns. I suspect many other companies are in a similar position, and it shows why they aren't that keen to install new copper cables.
I think the idea is that you use the name of a popular provider of public Wifi services. The example given is BTWifi, and they are the largest in the UK.
"Windows RT is a disaster because it lacks app compatibility."
I'm curious about why people say that. The alternatives people are choosing over WinRT are iOS and Android, and neither of them have app compatibility with the desktop. People don't complain about them not having app compatibility, but they do complain about WinRT not having it. Is it an expectation problem?
We don't really get earthquakes in the UK. An earthquake that is serious enough to damage buildings is a once in a hundred years event for the UK as a whole. For a particular area, it is a once in recorded history event if you are really unlucky.

The London Congestion Charging System was delivered on time, within budget and with no major flaws.

He created the digital music market, as in, he was the first person who managed to persuade people to pay for music in significant numbers.

Printers are 300/600 dpi in 2 bit colour, or 2 bit mono. Displays have at least 6 bit colour, and usualy 8 bit.
Yes, she is another good choice.
Marie Curie was French. British pound notes have British people on them. My preferred choice is Ada Lovelace.

17060 feet. You wouldn't per chance work for NASA?
But if "only 5% of people who already have a 3D display actually watch 3D stuff on it, then maybe not.

In the UK, the age of consent is 16, but it is illegal to publish pictures of the activity if you are under 18.

The most recent building code requires a minimum of 270mm of loft insulation, which is about 10.6 inches.
