Likely said before, but this would be perfect for a file backup/media server. Connect a USB drive, tie this little guy to a backup app like jungle disk and you have a remotely accessible file server that can be backed up offsite.
In your case I'd suggest getting a graphic designer to give you a simple design framework for your site. Just the basic layout of a couple of main page types then building it yourself using the same framework.
I agree w/ above. Google bringing out a Goo-phone wouldn't make any sense, business-wise. Creating one would directly conflict with the goals of it's Android platform. Google stands to gain much more by staying on their hardware-independent path and profiting from the software.
Come to think of it, Dell manufacturing/re-branding a low-end smartphone would seem to fit with their existing strategy. Much like their PC segment, they could sell the device cheaply and make money selling high margin accessories.
seems like everyone here is assuming that if you have a suit on, you don't know anything. imagine being in the user community...would you rather interact with the guy that's in the shorts and stained tshirt or the guy in the nicer button-up/slacks (assuming their level of technical knowledge is the same)? in the "normal" world, i might say the guy in the shorts/tshirt, but in the business world? button-up hands down. it's just more professional. i think there's something to be said about perception.
