You forget who Apple is. They don't do that with their computers. Odds are they won't do it with their phone. CDMA for the iPhone would suck, and I doubt Apple would do it, specially when even Verizon has a road map for getting away from it.
There is a few things that make this improbable.
Apple is very strict about time tables for release. I could see a January update, but not for what we know as the iPhone. I would lean towards Apple opening their phone market with a different handset all together. Maybe the vPhone, or maybe the iVone (Little jest there).
More likely is something with the iPad which is released during the January cycle.
If. . . If it happens, don't expect it to be the same iPhone that just came out. It will have different features, but I don't think Verizon will be able to pull off the ability to use the data network at the same time as making a call.
The IT department doesn't determine what is needed in a School environment. The teachers do. That's why most schools are years behind the corporate world. But slowly this is changing.
And I also assume you know that the licensing that Schools pay for SEP is for School owned networked PCs.
And thus I can assume you know that Win 7 Starter isn't exactly an OS that support AD Domains.
Caveat. . . Worked as an IT director for a University, and delt specifically with negotiating licensing agreements with all the major vendors. . . Currently working as a Consultant for a number of Large Corporate Clients, and managing a number of SEP installs in those environments.
The problem is that most educators are very narrow in their knowledge on their own and their knowledge is almost completely from the text books that they teach from.
In most cases you can define K-12 educators as regurgitators.
My mother is a K-12 teacher, and she would agree with that comment.
I don't think you get it. The federal law already states that you can be detained if your legal or illegal resident status cannot be determined.
I don't think you even understand what Due process means in the constitution. You can look it up in the 5th and 14th amendments. The constitutional right to procedural due process, which has been broadly construed to protect the individual so that statutes, regulations, and enforcement actions must ensure that no one is deprived of "life, liberty, or property" without a fair opportunity to affect the judgment or result.
No person accused of a crime may be compelled to be a witness against himself or herself. The Supreme Court has ruled that this applies to not only the trial but also police interrogations. Thus, a person in police custody may refuse to answer any questions relating to the crime that he or she is suspected of committing. Additionally, if the police want to question a suspect, they must first give him Miranda warnings.
This rule applies only to custodial interrogation, which is when the police are interrogating the suspect while he or she is in custody. If both elements are not present, the police are not required to give Miranda warnings.
Due process has nothing to do with what you are trying to associate it to.
Now if you are talking about Police Detention, then the police are only allowed to detain a citizen when there are "specific and articulable facts supporting suspicion" that you are involved in criminal activity.
This means that they can't detain you on a "hunch." "Specific and articulable facts" (SAF) means that the police must have observed something about your behavior and character that links you with specific criminal activity. If the police detain you without SAF, the detention is illegal and whatever they obtain as a result of the detention (evidence or arrest) cannot be used against you in court.
So don't go getting your panties in a bunch, because this still applies with this law. You could however make a comment on what you believe is or isn't "specific and articulable facts." And I'm sure that argument will end up in the courts to decide on specific case merits, however it still has nothing to do with this law.
If you don't like the law then use the proper methods to change it, but don't throw around rude comments like you are owed something. With the benefits of a government come the hardships of living with the realities of it's practice and interpretation.
Most people who don't have the ability to hold true debate with someone resort to personal attacks, because they have no understanding of the merit of their assumed position.
stop this non-sense of saying this has anything to do with guilt or innocence. That's for the courts to decide, and a prosecutor to prove, but it has nothing to do with the Police and their ability to detain, question, or stop you.
But you see if you are a legal American citizen, then you would have papers. They appear in the form of, a Birth certificate, or a Driver's license, or a state issued ID, or a Visa or Passport.
Well I've got the 10 fav's list of whatever it's called on ATT and I'm loving it, because I took my work phone number and put it in my list, then I set up call redirection at work to my cell number. Now I just have people call my work number instead of my cell number, and bam all the minutes are free.
Try 30 a month for the family unlimited text. And I'm with you. I use my iPhone for everything but to make calls on, most of the time. my data usage is through the roof.
I was with you on that, until I bought my first personal domain, and set up my own webmail service.
and honestly id you don't want to, or can't do it yourself, then at least look at one of the thousands of services out there that do it for a small fee. In fact this morning I was doing that very thing for a client of mine who wanted a personal domain for email only. I of course suggested that if he wanted to host his own webmail with the domain, he might as well do a business card style splash screen for the domain as well. Or feel free to contact me from my website and I'll send you a quote to do it for you. funkedoodles dot com
of course knowing all this, if I need to do any job searches in the future, I'll create a temp account on my personal domain, that's not my main personal account, and then, i'd just add that account to my iPhone, or to my gmail account as a secondary, and check it while looking for a job, and then kill it when not needed anymore.
and as far as the argument that gmail is better, than hotmail or aol, or yahoo for an employer to see. I disagree, when your looking for a job in IT. If you have a personal domain, and email it will always look better. (of course that's coming from a guy who sells custom email and website hosting services)
But really I never give out my gmail account. It's only a shell anyway. I only use it as a place to merge my many other personal and business accounts into a single place that I can access them at, for ease only. All sending and receiving is done from the account needed for the purpose or intent of the email.
I'm with you. I made the mistake last fall of using my personal domain email address, on my dice.com and my careerlink.com accounts, when I was out of a job for 3 weeks. I never got spam. I mean never, on this account. Now I get so much spam it makes me sick.
In the past I would use my spam catching yahoo account for those things, but since I hadn't been on the market for a few years, I agreed with the premiss of this article, and thought it would look bad to potential employers if I was using my spam yahoo account for job offers.
Personally hiring in IT as well, I would also tend to way those types of email addresses, as less desirable employees, but now being on the end of the job seaker, and dealing with the spam fallout since, I will use my yahoo account, but state in my cover letters, that I am using the yahoo account due to spam issues on employment sites, and if requested I would provide my personal domain account for further communication with interested employers.
If you only count hard costs, your mostly correct.
Soft costs however have huge savings. *If your soft costs don't see savings, then your IT people are bloating their work load or need retrained or fired.* Guess what the install and build out time of a thin client is compared to pushing an image over the network or even done locally? Grab a USB drive with the master image for the terminal. Connect it to the terminal, boot up the terminal, and hit Y twice. 20-30 seconds later, pull the thumb drive and reboot. Multiply that times 200 or 500 or 1000 or more PC installs, and image builds.
That's initial build out time savings, that is huge. Now look at what happens going forward. Software installs, OS updates, security updates. No matter how automated you think you have it with your desktop pc's, it's still much quicker using terminals.
Now look at large companies with multiple desktop support specialists on staff. Install terminals, and get rid of half of those positions. More costs savings.
Again, if your not seeing the soft cost settings, then someone is not doing their job right.

"It's Apple's software, they can license it to whoever they choose. Would they come after Joe Windows User who decides to buy OS X, hack it, and install it on his Dell? Unlikely. If Joe then decides to do this and start selling his PC's for a profit as "OpenMacs"?"
To add to what you said very well. ..
Just because they don't go after Joe Windows User for hacking it and installing it on his Dell, doesn't mean they don't have a legal right to do so. The only reason they don't, is because they are not in the business of making products you like. They are in the business of making money. They make no money, by going after you for installing it on your own machine. Because the cost to get you to stop is far more then the loss of income by you not legally purchasing their hardware to run that software.
It's not a legal difference. It's a financial one. But just because they don't go after every Joe doing it at home, doesn't make it legal to do so.
"If I don't get caught, it's not wrong." That's not a legal argument.
And if you don't like it. . . don't buy it like the parent said. Or. . . lobby to change the law, and the whole idea of Capitalism. Maybe you can call Obama, and beg for his socialist ideology. Then wait and see how long you will be able to use the great products that Capitalistic companies make, cause they will go out of business in that world.

So well. . . that Palm had to sell the company?

And you have every right to do that. And they have every right to detain you until provided if they have reasonable suspicion, and that's all you get.
stop this non-sense of saying this has anything to do with guilt or innocence. That's for the courts to decide, and a prosecutor to prove, but it has nothing to do with the Police and their ability to detain, question, or stop you.

I've always seen positive debate tactics, when someone lowers themselves to attacking the person they are debating.
Good show.
Science actually proves nothing by nature. It only attempts to disprove specific situations with specific conditions applied.
