or pay cash for a non-traceable transaction.

As a ex RadioShack employee, years ago I was forced to sell used and returned computers for full price. On the fly I came up with "We sell used computers AT NEW PRICES!" Nothing says it was New, it was ASSUMED by you that it was.

It would also seem like you could have a Dr working in an VR setup relaying his arm/hand control data to a remote human robot. That would allow for a neurosurgeon in NY to have a untrained remote "hand droid" in Antarctica, orbit or the moon do the surgery. It keeps the number of human onsite low.

It is still faster then my Gen 1 Drobo. I have been getting about 50MB/s transfer rate. 5.00MB/s is all I need through. I just want it in 1 place, with protection against bitrot. I am finding bitrot to be a problem, but so far only my VIDEO DVD ISO's have had problems. I can live with a glitch in a DVD video. Program copies and my personal data SEEM to be OK, but only time will tell. Entropy is a BITCH! :)

I guess I went overboard.

See my post about Nexenta for a easier to use system.

I just set up a server with Nexenta Community Edition. Free for 18tb of storage. My system is: Dual Xeon 2.8Ghz 16Gig Ram 1.5TB HD x 8 Dual GigE Adaptec Raid 5805 Controller, used as Sata controller only, NO RAID, each drive shows as separate volume for Nexenta to manage. I went with the Nexenta for two reasons: 1. Inline Deduplication 2. ZFS setup with Raidz-2 for dual drive failure without loosing data. I am demoting my Drobo from primary storage to backup storage, as it only has single disk failure without loosing data. With DeDupe on I am getting write speed in the 40-60MB a sec range. Not quite as good as with the Adaptec in Raid 6 mode, but the dedup is very much worth it. My USB drobo was giving me the occasional transfer error, and corrupting my data. I did a verified copy onto the Nexenta and with ZFS end to end checking of CRC's and monthly error check and correction I HOPE to stop bit rot. With a 8TB data store, across 80gig drives to 2tb drives of various ages, it was time to consolidate, error check and correct. Just my 2 cents as I outgrew my drobo.

On the Android platform, Angry Birds is ONLY available as a ad supported game. There is NO pay version. I don't know how much AB gets in revenue, but I'd bet they get MORE money from the "free" version with ads, then the paid one on IOS with out ads. Corporate Nintendo probably has NO idea how to compete with free for the long term.

Looks good on my desktop, but in longer threads like this, you have to scroll down to get more comments, then scroll down and get more comments. I liked the V1 that kept that, and the full/limited/hidden option on your screen at all times.

Hmmm, on Sprint I was able to block EITHER or BOTH of: 1. Phone to Phone 2. Internet SMS I ended up blocking just 2 to stop spam, but anyone with a phone can still text me. I did have the option of blocking all texts also. Sounds like you got a bad carrier and/or rep who did not want to do that for $ome rea$on. My carrier works for me.

From the article, it looks like Skyhook is Wifi based, not GPS. Wifi is possible to fake, by changing the mac address. If you are in europe, and want US market access, just find a mac located in the US, update your wifi to the US mac, and you now appear to be in the US. The Google market place is location dependent, and there probably contracts that make sure you buy in the right location. I doubt Google had much choice in rejecting it based on pre-existing contracts. Is skyhook difficult to spoof? Jam? GPS is much more stable. As far as I know, you can JAM GPS, but with needing multiple satellite (mine says 5 sats minimum) I don't of anyone who can tamper with it and change your apparent location with a external signal.

The Palm Pre and Pixi have optional wireless chargers, and as I had a Pre, I can say it worked great and the charge time of wired vs wireless was almost the same. With a new back holding the charging coil, the weight was almost nothing on the phone side. Put one in my car as a mobile docking station, and loved it. Now if they only put a EVO sized screen on a Pre it would be perfect. http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/handheld/categories/palm/1/accessories/FB300AA%2523AC3;HHOJSID=hq1gMTPGvpKRTN0tQbjCQ3rSrlHvwSLRkPkz5579v79zvbKdqTJL!1977121832

I have the EVO 4g, and the 4g is somewhere between worthless, and a handicap. If I leave it on, it sucks down the battery VERY quickly, and turning it on and off gets old quick. I can do everything I need it for with 3g. I have not jail broken it as I don't need tethering. 3g EVDO works just fine. I do know about the 5gig cap on 3g, where as 4g does not have a cap. I got it for the 1ghz, Android, and 4.3 screen to replace my palm pre. The 4g-wimax chip also does the wifi, and has a max power usage of 350ma. Wimax on a phone just can not go through buildings well enough to be a turn it on and forget it without killing a battery. Now at home I have a larger more powerful Wimax modem for home use, and I have 5 hardware computers, along with 10 or so VM's all sharing a single 3Mpbs/1Mbps Wimax connection, and other then ping times in the 100-350ms range, it works just fine.
