The percentage of electronics at the end of their lives which were recycled.
The EPA found that the percentage remained consistent from 1999-2005. Even as recycling rates went up, the amount of electronics reaching end of life outpaced the increase, leaving the figure static. (source: EPA, July 2008)
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Why do you care if its off base? Its a proprietary OS (are YOU going to develop for it?) I loved the concept for this phone, and THEN Android came out. Even Garmin/Asus realizes this. Garmin could skin Android to look exactly like this, and who would know? Until you actually started to kick ass with it.
What is a shame... they spent who knows how many years developing their own Linux.. or maybe it was just a port or extension of their own OS that has been on their PND's for years. It's a shame, but still, I cannot wait for their Android phone to come to the US. I also hope they release an app for the android market so we can finally get a real nav app.
No one cares about this phone anymore.
Unless the platform is guarantee'd to have an SDK and apps (an app store) there is no point investing in said platform...
Knowledgeable people are are not going to buy a phone/device and spend the kind of money ($30) AT&T is asking for without having some sort of extensibility present on said device...
So basically, until this device features SlingPlayer Mobile, HAVA Player Mobile, Print & Share, MySpace/Facebook/Tweetie, Skype, Shazam, AOL Radio, AIM, AirSharing, Orb Live, Amazon Kindle and Mocha VNC it is worthless to me and probably a crap-load of other people aswell....
Apple has unfortunately raised the bar... (I say "unfortunately" as a way of sympathizing with these companies.)
it is not rumor. it is known that it will be $299.
engadget is only 1 week late in reporting!!!
