The metallic reflective layer is NOT where the information is stored, it just aids in the information retrieval. In other words, this method might not destroy the data at all. It's true that it's pretty hard to get the data back, but depending on various conditions it may not be impossible.
Most likely T-mobile, since pretty much nothing else lets you use 3G on N900
But I'd like to know for sure, too
Easy for you to say if you don't want to play a game that's only available for PS3, for instance MGS4.
If I understand TFA correctly, these sensors act as a radar, except they analyze EM fields (which are distorted by metal cars) within the working radius
Fedora 14 here with OSS ATI drivers
Chromium works fine; Firefox 4b7 works (slow~ish, after updating extensions), Firefox 4b8 (JS preview build) doesn't work
FTFA: "Cryptologist Ron 'The R in RSA' Rivest withdrew his MD6 process - it was highly-rated but conspicuously sluggish"
Someone simply misread or misunderstood "sluggish" for "too fast"

2 major problems with using iPad as a car pc (off the top of my head, mind you)
* glare -- HUGE problem when you're in daylight and you've got light coming in from every window. And if the sun hits the screen directly... have fun!
* no extensibility -- no CD/tape/radio. Forget sat radio. No higher quality GPS or any other upgrades. True, you don't get extreme flexibility with pre-built car pcs, but they're still upgradeable to an extent..
MS Access can't possibly handle 2 billion records, no matter how much hardware you throw at it.
...and if they used Nginx they could easily withstand both slashing and dotting
Too bad they've only got Apache with PHP
Constructing one isn't very hard, just line the walls/windows/doors with metal screen door mesh, then ground it.
But that doesn't solve the problem of students networking between each other. If that's a necessity, a wifi jammer can be placed inside the faraday cage - this both prevents illegal jamming (nobody outisde is affected), and internally nobody can use wireless either.
Might cost a bundle, though
