So will probably get modded "troll" for using a microsoft setup but here is what I use. Its easy for anyone especially non techies Xbox 360 a windows box (currently a laptop) Logitech harmony xbox remote Only problem pretty sure only 1080i can't remember but looks good enough The remote allows anyone one touch access to my media through the same remote that controls my entire living room entertainment center Its low cost (used xbox 360 arcade runs really cheap) My $0.02

But if we never mine on mars ill never be able to tell someone "Get your ass to mars" and actually mean it :)

IANAJL (I am not a japanese lawywer) but perhaps he made a copy of the files to get around any "property destruction" laws because essentially all he did was "move" the files. And by using his own artwork he avoids any possible infringement laws. And by distributing it on a p2p network he really didn't illegaly access the computer as the user initiated the download themselves, will be interesting to see if they find him guilty of much.

I know I shouldn't feed the trolls but here goes. "Android" is open source and HTC's eris is also open source (you can download the source from HTC) and as such any one who owns an eris COULD find and fix the issue but unless you are extremely skilled and have lots of free time I don't think most people would do that. As far as VZW fixing it that's like asking dell to fix a glitch in windows, its not their issue. Or, like asking att to fix software or hardware on the iphone its not their product carriers run the networks we do not make devices.

Also just a note for any htc eris customers. verizons tech bulletins for this issue states that if a customer does not want to wait for the upcoming htc software fix that we are allowed to swap out the device for a different model although you may have to speak to someone who knows what they are doing in order to get this done.

I work for verizon wireless and yes verizon is wanting to fix this problem asap. the real problem though its not a network issue its a device issue and htc has their heads stuck up their ass and is not fixing it. Verizon cannot fix the issue since its a software issue and we don't make the software htc does. So blame htc and their shitty programming and poor quality control. So basically verizon is getting upset customers but has no resolution other than waiting for HTC to fix it.

Omega that was a serious game man, you had to program a simulated tank in a very high level programing language. game was made by origin in the 1990s. you could save your "tank" to disk and give it to a friend he could then load up your tank and have a tank ai battle against one of his own tank. origin even had a dedicated bbs so you could download others tank ai and compete even get their source so you could analyze their tank ai. the manuals were like intro programming books. two of em a believe. one of the hardest video games ever made, so it did not sell well :)
