More reasons not to have a phone with locked down software market. If some software gets pulled because of some retarded laws in USA, I'll just download it from somewhere else to my Android. With iPhone I get screwed also, even though I'm pretty much exactly on the other side of the planet.

If you can rig slots to give you jackpots, where do you need the other illegal money source?

Imaginary connection is pretty much what you get with AT&T

Here in Thailand, or at least in Chiang Mai, most of the computers and laptops I've seen come with FreeDOS preinstalled. If you don't want to install an OS yourself (and don''t prefer Freedos ;) you can just leave the new computer to the shop and pick it up with a OS of your choice a few hours later for a dollar or two extra install fee + price of the OS.

At least in Finland, most of the people. Why would you want to buy a more expensive (in the end) locked down phone than cheaper phone and freedom to go with any operator?

I'm going with Turbo Boost for sure. With that my computer can jump over walls and lakes and stuff.

Could I open one like this and claim to be a gynecologist? If I'd get paid for watching webcam porn I'd be rich

So.. Because lots of people are going to die, they're going to make that better by giving a life for WoW players?

But how many Libraries of Congress it is?

There usually is an API to query own phone number from the SIM, but I've never seen a SIM card with own number saved. It has just been empty on operators I've used. I don't know about SIM cards issued by operators in USA though.

If you publish proposals like this as a MS Word document, you should be censored from the internet.

But which way will the coins circulate down under?

It is pretty awesome, unless you're a shareholder of Global Gaming Factory X and going to spend over $7M next week for a blocked domain.
