Of course this is a good idea, why do you think every mini-van in america comes with DVD players and TV's. It's the easiest way to get kids to stop fighting.
I'm guessing that a defense contract that's 4 times it's initial budget and 10 years late doesn't have the time to worry about filtering out the non-classified data to give to scientists. IR data is very very noisy so it's pretty difficult to separate out the parts you care about vs the noise.
What about basic trademark infringement?
It is for sure illegal for another company to pretend to be some other company, especially through the use of its name. Who's to say that the same can be said of a device. That the device is made by Palm is pretending to be a device made by Apple and hence infringing upon the trademark by Apple and devaluing Apple's brand.
My vote is that there will be a lawsuit, how it ends up is anybody's guess.
Haven't you ever seen the documentary "Lost" on TV on ABC. About 30 people survived when Oceanic flight 815 crashed off the coast of Australlia. What I can't figure out is how these people get their documentary broadcast but nobody has been able to find the island they are stranded on for 2 years.
In the US, individuals cannot apply for security clearances on their own, and even if you could, they're really expensive($5K-$30K). Most jobs that require security clearance will apply for you to get one. You fill out some paperwork about your life history and then a background investigation is performed. Depending on the level of clearance, it can take from 6 months to 2 years to get. Many jobs are also contingent upon you being granted the clearance, if you don't get it, you're pretty much fired on the spot.
According to the diversity report from the IGDA http://www.igda.org/diversity/report.php the average salary is 58K, but that's with the average time in the industry at 5.6 years. So it would seem to me that the average starting salary would be less than the 60K they are quoting.
Also, due to the incredible supply of people that want to work in the games industry you'd expect the average salary of a game software developer to be less. I know in the company I work for starting SW developer salary is around 55K right out of college. In any event, it seems that their numbers for SW engineers is a bit high.

I'm sick of all the stork delivery birth deniers. TEACH THE CONTROVERSY!
Me too! Anything to get $250 of that sweet Yaris I've had my eye on down at the dealership.

SBIRS, can't kill it, can't make it live.

Whatever happened to "I'll show you mine if you show me yours"? And the timeless art of "playing doctor".

Am I blind or does it say Texas Instruments, not HP?
