There's nothing stopping anyone in the US from buying the A1200/MING on the Internet and using it on a GSM carrier in the US (Cingular, T-Mobile, handful of other smaller carriers).
By the way, if anyone knows how to add additional certificates to a Motorola v551 mobile phone, please let me know...
Check around HoFo -- I'm sure you'll fine information there. It's probably just a matter of downloading the cert in the proper format (DER, PEM, whatever) in the built-in browser. Use openssl to convert formats if needed.
FTFA: They're going to auction off the 1710-1755 MHz spectrum in addition to the already planned 2110-2155 MHz spectrum.
UMTS: "The specific frequency bands originally defined by the UMTS standard are 1885-2025 MHz for uplink and 2110-2200 MHz for downlink."
Once again, we can't use the frequencies that the rest of the world uses, so we have to get "Americas" phones with different bands or wait for Nokia et al to release "6-band" (800, 900, 1800, 1900, Euro/Japan UMTS, Americas UMTS) phones. Goddammit!
No it hasn't. It runs just fine on Windows. It runs like complete ass on Linux/GTK and MacOS. So, it's really only useful on Windows. I use Eclipse on Win32, Linux/GTK, and MacOS, and it's really only satisfactory on Win32. I really wish that wasn't the case.
Hang ViperCell antennas on the walls of your company's far-flung locations, connect them to the Ethernet, and pow: Your branch offices are now free-calling zones for cell phones. Using cellular voice-over-IP, ViperCell intercepts calls or messages sent with GSM or PCS phones, then routes them via your network - and your regular cell provider will never know.
Unfortunately, I don't think it ever came to market.
You can get repeaters that get put inside your building or car and run to an antenna outside. The passive ones are super cheap, and would be simple to build, too, but I wonder how well they would work in a situation like yours. There are also active repeaters, but those are targeted toward corporations with big buildings and are priced accordingly.
As someone who fills out a FAFSA every year, and just applied for a Federal Loan not five minutes ago, I've already given the Department of Education all of that information twice in the last six months. While not everyone will do so, I'm sure most students will fill out a FAFSA, even if they don't get any subsidized aid.
Seems to me that the Federal Gov't already has all of this information and needn't waste any more taxpayer dollars trying to aquire it again.
Note that I'm not trying to justify their attempts at data-collection (far from it, actually), I'm just pointing out that they already have that information for most of us already.
Re:For those who don't know ... what is this?

But a Mac running OS X connected to a Samba share preserves resource forks with all of those._* files.
Using X.org 6.8 and NVidia's drivers with the DRI stuff enabled on a Geforce2 GTS. Admittedly, this card is kind of old now, but should be more than sufficient for accelerated 2D graphics. It beats the socks off the integrated i865 graphics I was using, and that was with all of the latest DRI/DRM (I can't keep those straight anymore) drivers, too.
3. Benchmarking. As a condition to the license granted in Section 1, above, you may not disclose the results of any performance benchmarks for JRockit to any third party unless you comply with all of the following requirements:
(a) The benchmarks to be published are for the most recent "general availability" version of JRockit on a certified and supported operating system available from BEA at the time of publication, solely using product features expressly documented in the JRockit documentation for that version; and
(b) The benchmarks to be published are either SPECjbb2000 or SPECjAppServer2002, or any SPEC-provided successor thereto, and are completely conformant to any requirements promulgated by SPEC for the benchmark suite used; and
(c) The benchmark publication is non-comparative, meaning that the JRockit performance data is provided alone and is not compared, juxtaposed or otherwise presented in conjunction with similar performance data for any other Java Virtual Machine.
For one of my classes, I've been using Eclipse to do Java development. The CS lab at school has only Windows machines (XP Pro; P4-3.2G w/ HT, I think) and Eclipse runs very nicely on these computers.
At home, I run Linux on a P4-2.6G w/ HT. Frankly, Eclipse runs like ass on Linux. I've tested it with pretty much every available JRE/J2SDK for Linux, and it sucks with all of them.
This is using Eclipse with SWT compiled for GTK+. I have used WebSphere with the Motif libraries, and it was quite fast, but Motif is just horrid to use next to GTK+. But, SWT with GTK+ is just so damned slow. I've run Eclipse on my PowerBook G4, and it sucks even more on Mac OS.
I find this funny that Windows is the best supported platform for Java GUI programs, considering that MS hates Java. So, is GUI performance with Java apps ever going to be acceptable on Linux? It's really pathetic at this point.
I know Sun added OpenGL 2D acceleration to their 1.5.0 JRE, but that gives me lots of artifacts with the included demo programs, and SWT doesn't use the acceleration at all.
Unless you're a Neo-Nazi living in Germany, then you'd host it in the USA. I recall seeing a company called "White Power Hosting" at some point, actually, just for these sorts of customers.
So, anyone find a faster (8x +), dual format (DVD +/-), and hopefully dual layer DVD burner that will fit in a PowerBook? I love my SuperDrive, but being able to only use DVD-Rs and only at 2x is kind of a drag when a full-size DVD burner that costs less than $100 can do +/- at 8x or higher.
That's kind of interesting, because I have ADD, and I feel a lot more calm when I'm under a lot of pressure. I'm quite aggitated when there's not much for me to do.

Or it could just come with a backup ROM, too.

Nothing's stopping you from getting it flashed with generic firmware that doesn't have those restrictions.

Most beefy cell phones that have PDA-like features have a plane-mode where it won't try to connect to a network.
For me, it was a very cheap way of getting a co-located host (the mini is a lot smaller than a 1U server, and so hosting was cheap).
I'm very curious to know how cheap, and where. If you don't reply here, I'll try to email you.
If you find out, do let the rest of us know, too.
I think you meant Chippewa Falls, WI. Also home to Leinenkugels.
Mmmmm, beer.
I keep my USB KVM on the floor, where I can switch it by pressing the button with my toe. Even more handy than switching with the keyboard!
How does one take advantage of AppleCare to upgrade to a newer model?

Heh, knew I'd seen something like this in Wired several years back.
