I agree wholeheartedly, and literally laughed out loud when reading your comment. Perl is fantastic. Ah, my kingdom for some mod points, good sir.

If you ask the users what they want, they'll tell you that they want a faster DOS...

I will be laughing when Google buys out this new company to get him back.

That's the problem: it doesn't. It eats the RAM, and keeps it eaten. If I don't "watch the graphs", then I don't know when I need to start closing tabs because it's eating too much, and my computer starts to swap and then I do notice, because at that point, everything gets painfully slow. This isn't just a problem with Firefox, however.

Ah, I just assumed that since they're letting me install it on my ancient G1 (both from the web interface and from the market on the phone directly) that it was openly available. Wonder why it's allowed for the G1 but not the Droid? I am running Gingerbread, but that definitely isn't the only issue here, especially since it force closes as soon as I run the actual app.

It's on the market, too:

So Stallman's still crazy. Where's the news?

So which ones are decent?

You had me right up until:

Clearly, you've never tried to use the "hockey puck" or the "bar of soap" for real work. "Nice" isn't even in the right ball park.

And we're not at all surprised... I'm sure this one will go similarly. So much doom and gloom over such a little thing, where all the kinks are already worked out.

All I heard there was "This one goes to 11!"

The fact that the keyboards are all useless crap is the real issue here. Sure, there are plenty of Android models out there with keyboards, but none of them have a halfway decent keyboard. The G1 has been the best so far, and it's already too antiquated to really consider buying new.

The only thing I could possibly think of is recording a phone call while it's happening without any stupid speakerphone tricks (this is a problem because of the hardware, not the software, for what it's worth), but Android phones are actually better here because those APIs have the possibility of supporting this, if some phone manufacturer decided it's important. iOS? Oh, only one person makes that hardware, so you're SOL.

If I had mod points, I would mod this funny, because it is.

Exactly. For any business in the private sector trying this stunt, it would have major lawsuit potential. Same rules should be applied to the government.
