millions will follow........
back to what this story is about a few years back shortly before 9/11 the government made it a requirement that all cell phones in particulary "smart phones" be manufactured with the ability to be "traced" directly without having to triangulate it's location, additionaly all "firewall" and "encryption" software has to have a built in "backdoor" do your homework and you will find what I say is true 100% nothing is secure, they can "listen in" on your phone even if you are not using it, they have been able to do this since the 1950's I am not being paranoid just stating the circumstances, if you are worried about being traced by your cell phone remove the battery, truly paranoid? go out and buy something random and look for the "RF" chip that is inserted into nearly anything you can buy from books to shoes
this is actually kind of scary, just think if this idiot actually becomes president
you can buy just about any sturdy enclosure, put the drive inside, dont mount it with screws just fill the enclosure inside space with non-hardening silicone (squirt it inside) and the hard drive will survive almost all falls/impacts, it's the same method they use in the panasonic toughbook that the military and many companys pay outrages amounts of money for.
locked mine up tight, thanks for the heads up switched
shoot it's worse than that I ran a backtest on the clearwire network here and found 264 user's on 2 servers with speeds that were only slightly faster than DSL, bunch of crap then they wanted to charge me for the full contract when there service kept going down and I do business over the internet, how can I do business if the service doesn't work? I had to go in and argue with the manager and told them wouldn't pay them a penny. cancel me... now I use 10mbps cable.. much better, clearwire sucks
I just built my own basically it's a mini hp with vista, wireless, bluetooth, added a hdmi video card, extra memory, bigger hard drive, does everything these machines will do plus much more and it's easily upgradeable, I can easily change over to linux if needed or ubuntu no problem.
uuhhm, ok now why not throw a built in generator in the mix so the thing will charge itself??? I mean really how hard can it be to make it charge itself while driving, it's a no brainer, and why aren't thousands of other consumers asking the same question??????????
just give me my blackberry 8700c with the thumb wheel, camera, card slot, fm tuner, hdtv tuner, more memory and multimedia functions and im good, screw the rest of this junk, every single other product i have tested is not very human functional, blackberry hits it right on
and whats that big fire extinquisher thing stuck to the end? compressed air?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"With all the new multitouch capable monitors coming out, which one is the best? With the release of Windows 7 I really want a touchscreen monitor for my desktop. I'm looking to get a Full HD monitor that supports multitouch and can still look great during gaming and movies. Which one has the best specs for the price?"
