Casio G*Zone One. Doesn't even have a camera.

Verizon likes to pretend they don't stock them, but they do - corporate clients buy that model all the time for their delivery drivers.

I really dig the Elio, both as a consumer and a "car guy."

But a sub-10,000 dollar automobile that gets fantastic mileage, in America? I'm afraid that thing challenges too many well established estates to not meet a lot of opposition.

Um, the PC industry has been regulated since at least the 1950's, and the Internet was created via a socialist military experiment.

Did you forget the sarcasm tags?

Did they have minivans with screens in the 90's? I was still in Trans Am Mode back then.

Either one.

Just depends on what industry we're discussing.

Yea, that's why we have single-payer healthcare, no troops in the ME, and Bush's surveillance machine has been dismantled, right? All promises made by the current Democrat during his campaign.

Yes, because it's perfectly reasonable for a corporation that makes billion dollar mistakes to stay in business, isn't it?

I'll bet if you read your employment contract carefully, you'll discover that any intellectual property you create while on the clock automatically belongs to your employer. Some places claim ownership over your private projects done off the clock, although I fail to see how that would hold up in court.

So yea, the smart money is on not doing personal projects on company time.

Maybe because laws aren't the issue, police department policies (that we don't get to vote for) are. For example, the policy of refusing to hire people who score "too high" on aptitude tests, as evidenced by Jordan v New London. That's just the part of the iceburg we can see.

Something something Half-life 3.

Since most 10th graders know how to use Google, I don't see that being an issue. You realize that the point you're basically arguing here is, "the only people who should be able to understand a doctor's bill are doctors," right?

In this case the patient themselves were denied access to their own info.

It's not malice, it's greed built into the medical billing system. Same reason hospitals don't publish their fee rates.
