I severed the cord from Cable in 2007. No way I was going to pay over $100 for internet and channels that I did not want. We all know how to get shows via downloads, (torrents, ect). But now the streaming services (Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Prime, Youtube) are starting to have their own content. Hell, my wife watches the Soaps she missed online, no bubbles, no troubles. Some of the cable channels get the whole online thing, just look at comedy central. I'm sure people that are connected to the internet would be willing to pay for channels they want to stream (HBO, ESPN, ect).
Man, the C64...does it bring back the memories.
Load "*", 8
I got one when I was 6th grade, and I would spend hours messing around with it. Then in middle school, we started getting them set up on a network. It was really awesome!
I also had a modem for it, where I would have to dial a number on the phone, the put the hand set on it to communicate. Nothing like getting on the boards at 16k.
If you do the google voice/sipgate thing, then you can use a program to do a data call to your sip number, and make a phone call that way (via data). I do this all the time when I don't have a signal (sprint) but WiFi. On 3g, the call quality is good, and people don't notice that I am on a data connection. It does kill my cell phone battery though....but it's a small price to pay for cheap phone calls...
All these different types of keyboards for the android devices are making my head spin. Next it will be brain waves to text!
I'll stick with SwipeIT, thank you very much....
If you could tie your google name to your google voice number, then instead of people getting your phone number, they could click on your user name, and then select call, it rings your phone, then when you pick up, it calls the other person. If that's the case, that would rock!
You could get a google voice number, and then do the SIPgate/sipsorcery thing with PBX.org. I have my wife set up with that now, and she uses it all the time while she's deployed. She has Fring set up on her ipod touch, and has the sip portion set up with pbx.org setting, the call quality is great. If you're with Verizon, then get an android phone and download sipdroid. Have the setting with google voice to ring your sipgate number, and you'll be all set.

Umm....No.....only thing is doing is messing up a great service. I wonder if the MPAA is going to go after Google now because you can search for nzb files via google......
Hmmm....it works on iphone, and Android 2.0+....yeah.....so, in order to even look at this via mobile, I have to either us Gay AT&T, or get a Droid or Nexus One. No thanks....Facebook works fine on my Hero...
Google got all the hip going for this phone, and probably thought that only the "super geek" would get it. Now that Ma an Pa Bell are getting this phone, and don't know how to enter in the information for looking onto the cell phone network, or how to send text message, google will find out how "smart" the average american is:)
This is completely insane. Blaming P2P for the leak instead of having control over the documents. I know with the NMCI system, anything that is transferred to a external hard drive is encrypted. If the US Government wants to stop these types of leaks, maybe they should ask Al Gore how to stop his wonderful invention.
Maybe the phone company should rethink the business model and go with DSL. Hell, they have phone lines just about everywhere. Instead of going with "telephone" with the luxury of internet, they should sell DSL with the option of VOIP
I can see this from a business aspect, but I would think that people would be thinking, "why do I want to boot into Linux when I have windows right here?" Oh well, at least dell is trying.
Now, just think if the person doing this test had the person try this stuff with linuxmint or PClinuxOS where flash and java comes pre-installed. Granted, this is a great test, and I know my wife had a lot of trouble doing the same types of things when she started using windows (she now uses linuxmint kde 4.0.)

And now this company is on the look out for Cartman burgers, and we all need Jameson Irish Whiskey to make it through the day....

Man, I make data calls all the time, sipdroid and google voice, nothing easier than that.

That would be ok, if the item would be posted right after it aired (like bit torrent)....
First it's the Pirate Bay, then Mininova, Newzbin, and now IsoHunt? Where or Where are we to get our stuff from? Itunes?

Sure they would, that's what youtube is for :)
If you are so scared about eavesdropping, why not set up stunnel, or pay for a service like secure-tunnel and run everything through that.....

Wow...So glad I use mythtv and don't have to worry about microcrap like that!
