Also on a US centric site one hour flight _in Germany_ would cost €6. In US dollars _today_ that would be just over $8.
Having followed Slashdot for around 15 years I never found it very US centric, but maybe I have missed something.
Is that not something QNX was supposed to be good at - except now it is a phone OS as well
You are thinking of using a phone OS as control app platform, RIM will be using a RT control platform in a phone.
Go figure.
Isn't this the version where they fixed the antenna so it can be used without a bumper case?
Correct - but as an owner of a new Macbook Pro with Lion I find the news interesting because it single biggest problem is related to wifi performance.
My Macbook regularly drops (Apple Airport) connections, will not connect when resuming and refuse point blanc to connect to some public hotspots.
(i.e. not making proper use of package management, shell features like pipes or virtual desktops etc)
I started out on C64 and have no idea what a shell pipe is. What is it?

You may also need to replace the cable regularly if you like Swedish 'nature' movies as the red tends to wear out sooner than other colors.
In fact I think that tablets may lead to more desktop pc's to be sold again. I now work on a laptop that is used mostly as a slow desktop and when traveling as a heavy tablet.
My next setup will be a desktop and a tablet, I have decided. Wonder if I will be alone. Maybe in fact I will just get a desktop and do work at my desk like in the good ol days. Somehow I have gotten tired of being able to work and connect to the net from every corner of the earth and beyond.
Am I alone in this?

It feels snappier on an iPhone now.
He left Sun. He left Novell.
Interesting - where did those companies go?
Typical male pissing contest.
Now what about the girls?
It looks like the smart guys at NASA agree with many of us 'dotters
Nerds agreeing with nerds, very strange indeed.
Interesting. Do you like to sleep in at times? Get an iPhone.
Seriously, if you want the best phone you can buy for most circumstances the iPhone is the way to go. Version 5 should have resolved any teething problems and there is a long way to go for Google to reach that point of maturity in its mobile OS.
The Pirate Bay is already blocked by the major providers in Italy, for much the same reasons I suspect: total control over Italian media consumption by BS (Berlusconi Silvio).
I live in Italy, and the lack of unbiased information is incredible - half the population really believe that the press are under communist control and that journalists have an axe to grind with Berlusconi. The other half disagree and the result is a country that is incredibily polarized and divided - over Berlusconi.
The best thing for Italy would be for him to die quickly for as long as he lives he will be able to hide and manipulate information - a perfect modern Machiavelli.
There certainly must be potential, but the end-all device currently is the pc (or mac) for access to web based tv.
We live abroad and use a computer to watch dutch, swedish and Italian TV and a VPN to connect to BBC iPlayer and 4OD. Once you get past the slightly lower quality there is no going back to not-on-demand TV.
If only the new AppleTV would include a browser and Flash / Silverlight... It would be perfect for my purposes.
Kleeneness is next to Godelness.
