The roku soundbridge that the article recommends is just a different display on the squeezebox by slimdevices. The squeezebox has the community support, while the soundbrige has flashy marketing.
The article would have been more helpful if it listed other products besides the one in each category. In each instance, it looked like they were trying to choose the glitziest product, but not usually the best.
I have gotten a few telimarketing calls from 866 numbers. The trick is that they hang up on me as soon as I pick up. Then I call back and hear a prerecorded spam message. Has anyone else gotten this? Does the fact that I called back mean that this is a legal practice?
This is bad, but not worst than entire sites that are fake. Try typing "top web hosts" into Google. All the review sites are fake: hostreview.com, tophosts.com, top10webhosting.com....
They pretend to be unbiased review sites but are really just advertising for the companies listed.
A friend who works at a prominent ISP was asked by a potential customer why they weren't on Top Hosts. So people are falling for it. And hosting companies feel obligated to advertise there because the sales people are demanding it.
The Boardwalk isn't bad. I'd stay way from the smaller wheeled Picollo from Dahon as the extra inches in the Boardwalk and that sized line really help. The Dahon doesn't fold as easily and quickly as a Brompton, but they are a lot cheaper so its not a bad trade off.
In a never ending qwest to be the second geekiest guy in the world after the Tron guy, I use and love my Brompton bike. Its expensive, but it folds up for carrying -- an elegant engineering feat.
Thanks. To be sure I understand... Mozilla with SPA CAN access Exchange email, but not all the other features of Exchange such as Calander and Addressbook?
Also, does the Evolution work like YahooPops
where it goes through a web page connection? If so, wouldn't a direct connection
using SPA like Outlook and Mozilla do be more elegant, efficient, faster?
I do the same thing. Some other low bandwidth sites I use:

Great idea IMHO. Maybe add it to Mr Postman.

So if I am making a homebrew mail program to connect to my work's Exchange email, is the Ximian connector the best solution?
Doesn't Mozilla have access to Exchange mail because it can use SPA, Microsoft's Proprietary Secure Password Authentication?
See this note on Mozilla's forums saying that they Implemented SPA (aka NTLM MSN) authentication for IMAP (it was already implemented for POP and SMTP in 0.5). By using the NTLM Davenport project couldn't I use SPA with my homebrew email program in the same way that Mozilla does?
