Actually Cable TV was started to provide television to areas that couldn't receive commercial television signals (e.g. communities in valleys). That's why it's abbreviated CATV (Community Antenna Television). The original intent was merely to rebroadcast over-the-air signals.
No you're MAC address is not carried in an IP packet. You need to send an Ethernet frame to your upstream router that is going to have your MAC address as the source MAC in the frame, but your MAC address doesn't go past the interface that you are connected to on your gateway.
I'll second this. For the price you can't beat it. Mine was -$50 from amazon.com. That's right I got $50 back. As others mentioned there's considerable lag, but that seems to be more a function of GPRS than the Sidekick II though. I had the same issues using PPP over BT with my Powerbook.
DirecTV is releasing their own DVR. TiVo missed the boat by not partnering with any CableCos. They don't have an HD TiVo that will work with cable. For that reason I just cancelled service on my two TiVos and have switched to two Motorola 6412s from Comcast. Between two tuners and HD TiVo can't compete.
That's because it's the MAC of the modem that matters not your computer/router.
Delicious Library is neat and I own a copy, but it tends to bog down with a large library. I would think it wouldn't handle 3500 books very well.

Except that most cable companies face little direct competition. They face competition from DBS, but most face no wireline competition whatsoever.
ad-ridden bullshit? I suppose every team having a sponsor emblazoned across their chest isn't ad-ridden?

Routers still look at all 128 bits of the address. Many ISPs are using /127s or /126s on their PtP links.
I believe you meant too many online conversations.
Actually I believe punctuation was his problem. I think he meant:
You do know that most Americans never do a budget, correct?

Will store your configs including SW versions in a CVS tree. You could easily parse this stuff and dump it into a DB.
