screw that. it could reduce the repair costs on vending machines when if the machine is attacked for swallowing money it turns off the wifi (a pinball tilt switch should do). angry nerds will rush to defend the vending machine to get their wifi back.
he also has a podcast called fully charged that's worth watching. it's about electric/hybrid technology.
so good apple tried to ban it!

video chat?
i was using video chat on a nokia n70n when they came out 2005-2006? worked fine on 3g with other nokia devices. even when i was surrounded by granite at my home location. only made a few test calls as video calls then and now hold no interest for me. always saw it as technology in search of a market that doesn't really exist.
because announcing that obama is alive and well and still running the us of a goes against everything they believe in?
well here in ireland a prepay sim can be picked up with no paperwork and i think 5 euros every six months will keep it active and in credit. so 10 euros a year to run it?
it would be nice with a wifi model running voip to your mobile though.
problem was not symbian? would agree to that for the most part.
problem was 150 phones? disagree to that. they sell huge numbers of phones all over the world. different markets and different users have different requirements and i always could find something that fitted exactly what i wanted in their hardware range. better than the apple one size fits all policy.
i think their problem was the way they kept changing symbian so that addon software from one year would not work on next years phone. the platform while it didn't change much in look and feel changed enough so that every year i found i had to find new software to do what i was doing on last years phone. this pissed off developers who would often release only once or twice before abandoning the platform. in the time i had symbian devices i went through at least 4 different etext readers as the old software wouldn't work on the newer devices.
they never cared about creating a developer friendly platform. pity as it remains the only device i could write and run python software on. ase for android is getting better but is still not as good, yet.
just my 2c.
huh i would have thought a microsoft kernel would be along the lines of;

i'll just leave this here.
