Yes I agree, this is one of the new features I'm really excited about.
There's nothing more annoying then having a truncated stack trace when trying to find a bug.
We use Borland's JBuilder at our startup company for the past year and a half and most everyone has been very happy with it. It's a pure Java environment and will work on Linux (I ran JBuild exclusively on a SuSE Linux-ified Dell laptop at my last job) and runs very quickly, unlike Netbeans from what I've seen. There's an API for creating add-ons to the IDE and people have created many free ones out there (that one has a few and one that was hosted on Angelfire had a lot but is gone now).
My favorite is jVi which changes the editor to act like VI/VIM. I think JBuilder comes with an emacs editor option out of the box (zip file) as well. There's also Clearcase opentool that I used for a while but I've found it too slow for my taste in the long run.
A lot of Developers here use EditPlus for editing XML, XSL and JSP and they can't say enough good things about it. Personally I love VIM, it's good for what ails ya.
Now we trade music and movies over the net, the next thing will be trading hardware!
Download your own bootleg PS2!
Companies that deal in information, anything that can be represented in 1s and 0s are freaking out because it is so damned easy to trade their precious property on the net (or it will be really soon).
With this sort of technology what's to stop us from trading bootlegged schematics across the net? Hardware manufactures won't be safe anymore.
To project into the future with nanotech ala "The Diamond Age", NOTHING is safe. Why should you bother to buy the PS2-equivilent when you can just download bootlegged specs from Gnutella and have your army of nanos crank it out?
The future will be interesting on so many levels...
You've obviously never used XML. It's much more then a buzzword.
A generic and standard way of representing any sort of data is fantastic. Any data you have can be parsed in some way with a generic parser. This makes it wonderfully portable and easy to work with.
I loved that game too. It was probably one of the most underrated games for the PC. Quarantine II was really bad I hear, all you did was missions, no taking random passengers around...
Graphics weren't exactly good in any way but the game was just plain fun.

Anyone know about this EPOC OS?
Found their homepage. It's a company called "Symbian". They also have a press release of their own.

Ooooh I can finally hack together my own version (GPLed naturally) of the infamous Venezuelan Beaver Cheese .
Do we now need to institute a no pr0n surfing while driving law?

Their mission is to develop an open standard for how wireless phones can be used on any network.
I somehow think the Phone paradigm has been pretty well defined...
...press numbers...hit send...talk to person or answering machine...hit end.
(psss...this is a joke)
Oh so yay! We finally find out who this mysterous Anonymous Coward is after all these years!
How would you securely store your customer's private information, especially when it comes to critical pieces like credit card numbers?
On my Palm Pilot.
Riiiight
humor impared?
The day I'll stop using Java is the day they will have to pry my keyboard from my cold, dead hands...
...or the day I can't find another job
The 30 Second Skip:
Select - Play - Select - 3 - 0 - Select
You will hear three happy beeps and you're set.
Just press the ->| button in the lower-right of the remote to skip ahead 30 seconds.

Oh man I remember playing Amoeba Invaders on my old 1000 back in the day. The good ol' days.
Did the same. I've been playing Jet Grind Radio...it's super dope. :)
Plus got MAMED working on it
Do you prefer the original ending of Army of Darkness where you're propelled further forward in time, or the remade one?

Lots of Irritating Sets of Parenthesis
Apart from that I don't think you can really compare a programming language to a data representation.
It's like comparing oranges and orangutans.
