Submission + - Price for child's safety

ShadowHywind writes: Cingular has recently came out with a family plan text message plan with a great price of $29.99. However what they don't mention to say is that it removes all blocks, including MediaNet and text messages, that were once on the phone. And due to "software" problems, they can not add the block back on. Cingular does have a solution for you, get rid of the Family plan text message, and go with individual plans. So instead of paying $29.99 a month for all 5 phones, your looking at $19.99 times 4 phones. The best part of this whole story, is that Cingular programmed it to be this way, according to one Manager at Cingular, Whats better for Cingular, $29.99 or $49.99. So the moral of the story, if you have a 8 year old and care about there safety and don't want them to have internet or text messages, then get ready to pay, either with $49.99 or giving everyone on your plan free reign on the internet on their phone.

Submission + - personal security cameras 1

ShadowHywind writes: After a horrible breakup with my girlfriend, my car was suddenly scratched. A few weeks later, the car was scratched again. After reporting it to the apartment management, they said that this is the first case of a car ever being vandalized in the parking lot. Unfortunately the apartment parking lot has no security cameras, and currently has no plan on installing any. The good thing is i can see my car from my window, however i can't sit and watch it 24/7. So i am asking you all, What are your suggestions to installing a personal security camera aiming at the car or can i do something else?

It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
