And the bug has more then a year...

It's a phone and this folks can point your position everywhere in the face of the earth but are unable to properly send a bloody sms!?! (Nokia is doing it well for more then a decade). This is "I live in my BMW because I can't pay the rent" stuff.

Lately, movies seem like an excuse to show special effects with no regard for plot.

I have high hopes on them. The best of luck!

Parabolic antennas have high gain but a very small beamwidth, hence you need to be pointed precisely in the direction of the transmitter. With an array, the beamwidth is wider.

If it works well under Firefox it will be good. Office is the one thing I miss on linux... Open Office creates a mess in a workplace were everyone uses MS office.

At least for me... I first read something about him, in my freshman year in college, in the book Caos, by James Gleick http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0140092501/jamesgleick. To this day I remember him with the utmost consideration. I hope he had a happy life. I'll never forget his work... He was one of the great scientists of our time.

:) I'm not in China, I'm in Portugal and I'm a democrat, using US standards. I don't expect you to understand what I've write, simple consider that some people may know China better than you. What I can tell you is that I have western friends over there and, when they come here, we discuss a lot this subject. Large story short, I stand for what I've said. There is discussion inside the party, but you cannot question its existence or the single party system. The large majority of the dissidents are democrats (in the broad sense of the word) that want a multi-party system and universal free elections, hence they are in trouble.

They prize stability over free speech. As a meter of fact they can criticise the communist party and its actions, the problem is when somebody questions the single party system and its mechanic.
Also, they are very nationalistic. They see western counties using the human rights "trick" as a way to leverage a political and economic position.
What a hell! If we cared so much about civil liberties and democracy we would not buy so much stuff from them.

By the pollution distribution I see desert areas with high concentration of this particles. Their origin may be related to small dust particles in the air.

Buzz word driven evolution. Two years ago were netbooks, last year were ebook readers and this year we have tablets. Everyone needs to get its costumed or proprietary gadget on the market, just to mark a position. I don't see market for all this stuff. Who need a cell phone (or 2), netbook, ebook reader and tablet at the same time? I predict gadjet saturation.

I've got 30 fps. Results of 1 or 2 fps are very strange and I think they are related to non Firefox issues.

Firefox 3.6.9.
Ubuntu 10.04.1
Core 2 Duo 1.8GHz
GeForce 9400 GT (with nvidia driver)

yeah right. So, imagine you are in Australia, you decide to produce, lets say... Port. From your point of view you obviously have the right to use the name Port even if its based in the name of a Portuguese city and is famous because 250 years of refinement made it that way... Your contribution to that? Earn money over generations of other peoples work and not giving anything back. Move to Portugal, Make Port over there.
