Because the only thing better than mediocre connectivity stateside is getting ass-raped with roaming charges when I place a call overseas. Sigh.
Thanks for the explanation though...
I had the displeasure of having a G1 for a little more than a week before I send it back from whence it came. I couldn't even get Edge unless I strolled around my neighborhood looking for their pathetic signal. This after I spent six months competing in the android developer challenge. What a massive disappointment.
I am utterly baffled why Google would sully their reputation by attaching themselves to such a shit network.
How about releasing a CDMA nexus one on Sprint??
Fear not.... William Gibson's Neuromancer movie is slated for release in 2011
"Break-resistant" Just isn't sexy marketing now, is it?
Be afraid!
No, they are NOT IP based. The only thing that goes over the IP network is the billing and decryption key exchange.
FLO TV / VCast TV/ AT&T Mobile TV is an encoded digital signal that goes out over UHF. I have personally toured FLO TV's headquarters, am friends with employees that work there, and know what I'm talking about. The TV signals are taken from the network feeds and encoded at FLO TV's San Diego headquarters, then transmitted out to dual satellite uplinks. The transmitters in in the local markets have KU-band dishes that get the FLO TV signal and broadcast it on their antennas out over what once was TV channel 55.
Get your facts straight.
Yes, and that somebody is you, because the article makes no mention of that (despite other lies it contains).

The whole article is horribly wrong. The TV service they're speaking about does NOT use up cellular network bandwidth.
The article says: "the “V Cast” and “Mobile TV” television services offered by Verizon and AT&T respectively are streamed jerkily across their cellular networks."
This is false, This article is very misleading. V-Cast TV and AT&T Mobile TV are Qualcomm's MediaFLO service re-branded. These are broadcast-quality digital signals that come over what previously was the Analog TV channel 55. These are NOT streamed, and are completely separate from the Cellular network. See the MediaFLO entry on Wikipedia for confirmation of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaFLO
Slashdot mods: you should correct this article summary because it contains utterly false misinformation.
what about GVIM? (stupid answer)
Here are some VIM eclipse plugins:

Though I tend not to like these since the native plugins for whatever you might be developing inside eclipse tend to be more complete.
I believe there was a bit of an anti-MMO angle to the film. Essentially, as the controller of an avatar you're jacking yourself in to posses control of a body that is larger than life. Meanwhile your physical body atrophies. Though the outside world might oppose you, it becomes your the MMO addicts overarching goal to get back into the game. But World of Warcraft will never be as immersive as controlling an avatar, the world will never be as rich or deep as pandora, and there will never be a ceremony to transfer your soul into your new, superior container. So really, why bother living in the machine?
Anybody else see this as a theme in the movie or was it just me?
130,000 peoples "croudsourced" surveillance leads to the arrest of 21 mostly dope smugglers. What a colossal waste of time and energy this was for this end result.
How about you border watchers go do something useful, learn a trade, contribute something positive to society. Obstructing other people from doing their work, does nothing to make this world a better place. It's a line in the sand!
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
