They realized that such a restriction with small wireless networks would be very difficult to enforce. Or maybe they like the idea of community wireless networks without buying expensive equipment?
I think lakeland explains the whole thing pretty well in this comment.
Basically, the GPL can only be enforced if you distribute the software. Remember, it's not a EULA, it's a Copyright license.
Therefore, Sveasoft is saying "If you do not distribute this software (IOW, don't invoke the GPL), then we will give you free upgrades in advance. Or, If you choose to distribute it under the GPL, then we won't give you free upgrades in advance."
Sounds like a pretty good model to me.

I would setup a scoring system so that the user must have X points to successfully register their account.
Points can be earned by:
Depositing 2 random amounts of money into the person's checking account (like PayPal)
Verifying their address with the address on their credit card
Matching their phone number to their address through a phonebook (anywho.com/rl.html)
Have an automated call placed to the phone number listed and ask the person to input his/her date of birth as digits
Have X other registered users verify that the person signing up is real
Have the person fax in a notarized document of identity
Send a letter/postcard in the mail with a code for the person to use to verify his/her address
Have the person call a toll-free number and input their birth date and using caller id to verify the source of the phone call
There are probably more ways, but like others said, if you're serious about this, you may want to look into starting a non-profit or LLC.
I usually use my Neuros in my car, but I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Q0 and Q5. I don't want to keep different versions of the same song for my car and desktop. Hopefully some day we can have bitrate peeling.. some day..
I pick up my 128mb solid state ogg player that I bought from Neuros Audio. It plays Ogg along with several other formats just fine. Once you tell people you can fit twice the number of songs on your "mp3" player without losing much quality by using Ogg Vorbis, they start listening.
The Neuros, Rio Karma, and iRiver all support Ogg Vorbis.
I didn't know why they consider blood type as a hiring factor, so I found this:
Personality assessment through blood type analysis has been prevalent in Japan sine the early 1970's. The Japanese term for this theory is 'ketsu-eki-gata', and is taken surprisingly seriously by the people from that part of the world. Books have been published on the topic, selling very well. In fact, Toshitaka Nomi has published over twenty-five books, and is considered the worlds leading expert on the topic. The blood type categories are used in a similar way to astrology in the west, focusing mostly on relationship aspects of life. Nomi goes further in his books though, even using blood type make up within a country as a theory for that nationality's general national traits.
Japanese companies often take blood type into consideration when hiring employees, to ensure harmony throughout the staff. All the major car companies in Japan have reorganised themselves in order to attain positive blood type combinations in different working sectors. Surveys have been carried out to try and determine the preferences of different blood types, be it for food, clothes or any recreational activity. It is also a popular topic of conversation in social settings.
I'm rarely on the phone with tech support (not because I'm too good for them, but because I don't have many things to call in about). Anyway, the "blame the other guy" thing hash appened to me, so I have company A call company B with me on the line. It makes for a very interesting conversation. I've only used it twice, but so far it's worked pretty well.

IIRC, you have to opt out to retain your right to sue.
Firewalls don't stop telemarketers from calling my cell phone.
Agreed.
Though, my deal was once I got a job then I could get a car.
So what's in the browser cache? The things that he is interested in may be available in the real world too.
I didn't start listening to music until about 5 years ago.
Anyway, I think that if you could work with his interests, it would help out a lot.
According to the reviews for it, the batteries last anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks. Ouch.

I know that some of the Mercedes models use infrared signals rather than radio. Infrared should be able to avoid most interference.

You'll find many happy customers who regularly give input to their CEO and developers about the Neuros.
Just recently, they added a DJ feature that lets you shift speed and other neat effects for your music.

It can even trace traffic flows. Neat stuff.
Eudora? How about some easy spam filtering with Thunderbird?
The sad part is that I agree with the moderation of the parent: Score: 2, Funny
I use mine to play music, not to stare at.
The next generation of Neuros looks like this.
