Someone should patent the way(process) of patents approval. (Patent the process of patenting an idea) and then sue USPTO (I know this is not possible, but take this like the latest fantasy movie).
That day, hopefully, the people @ patents office will understand the pain of useless patents, where one guy patents Linked List and another patents FOR LOOPS. Atleast after that, there should be some step towards agreement as to what is patentable and what not.
I think its still of not much use, until we have something much more holistic..
Why even if the 2 parts of the hack (SIM unlock , iTunes activation ) arrive, still it may not be great:
1) You will anyway use ITunes to sync your music with the iPhone. After knowing the whole enormity of the hack, Apple developers can patch their software and push them as update on iTunes.. So the rule of the thumb should be that you shouldnt upgrade your iPhone's software at any cost. That prevents you from patches to the bleeding edges, like fixed ringtones in the iPhone.. etc..
2) If they want, they can go a step further and in the update stealthily write some program to check if the phone is genuine (like WGA Stuff).. I dont think Apple will do that, but thats very much possible under their EULA
3) Assuming you get access the file system of iPhone, it still may not help you in terms of the music, and you would be forced to try iTunes (until good & stable alternative for iTunes for iPhones arise)..
But this is the first step forward for those who want to get rid of AT & T. Lets see how it evolves..

I think this is a big deal for Linspire, considering the fact that the only compromise they made was MSN as default page. This avoids them to spend a lot on "litigation" dollars and indirectly good for Linux, assuming linspire can divert that cash towards productive linux & other OSS development.
M$ is anyway going to threaten everyone on the Linux camp with Patent issues.
With Cisco Security Agent, its already there.. It usually shows a Popup asking if I should allow the Active X Control, or say a new program that recently got downloaded and started installing all by itself..etc etc, it can catch most obvious ones..
I just hope people come up with new things other than those that require coordination from both eyes (thats prevalent in these polarized stuff). I have problems with one of my eye and I have never been able to see things in depth.
Tell me when something that doesn't require eye coordination works.
One big reason these days ISPs don't look seriously much into such "tip" about spammers is that, they end up troubling naive users. Remember for the past 5-6 years, spammers use Spam Bot to send spams. The international rates for an ad ware/spy ware victim computer is even $10 (ie., you can command a computer to send spam for $10).
If you are an average Joe six pack, I m sure you would have been attacked by spy ware several times. Your system in most such cases would be a spam transmitter, doing the rudimentary job of sending spam, attacking other vulnerable computers..yada yada... -- comment already exceeded Informative limit, hence no sig.

The Answer to The Ultimate Question Of Life, the Universe, and Everything == 42
Malarial Drug Research == 420
420 is 419 + 1 (419 - remember Nigeria?)
Malarial Drug Research/Answer to Ultimate question = 420/42 = 10
remove 0 from 10:-) and it is 1 , subtract 1 from 420 and it is 419.....
Something is really really fishy...
