Wish I had mod points.

They have, http://www.rethink-wireless.com/2009/12/15/synaptics-concept-squeeze-phone-brings-touch-surfaces.htm

"Oh no — there's no "@" symbol! If you haven't realized it yet, the keyboard is focused only on the alphabet. Punctuation, navigation, and modifiers are nowhere to be found. But since we have two hands, those are exactly the kind of things that should be integrated in the left hand keyboard.

We haven't built out the left hand yet, but you can imagine that holding a chord on the left hand can modify the keys available on the right hand. For example, holding down the left thumb could be similar to shift (allowing capital letters), or holding down the left thumb and first finger could allow for number entry."

They did as recently as 2003, http://treatanysoldier.com/Brian/Iraq/

And that is just conventional forces, SOF probably more so.

CERN is in the suburbs of Geneva Switzerland and the experiment was at Gran Sasso in Italy... probably a 800+KM distance

We always prefered green lasers because the red lasers often washed out on Plasma/LCDs

If it is anything like some federal agencies, the blackberry is seen as a status symbol. Look, I'm important enough to be needed at anytime... most really aren't that important. I declined one when I switched offices but there are people (non-IT or managers) with blackberries. Waste of money.

It is sort of the same system employed by the military with their Common Access Card... authentication requires two things.. something you possess (the card) and something you know (your PIN). You need both. One without the other is useless. And the card will lock you out after three wrong attempts.

IMHO, the main reason the carriers try to stop hacking is tethering... a lot of the Android hacking community seems to be how to get tethering for free.

I do not think it is correct that the US military lacks the will. It is what they train for. Most of it can be done without looking upon a single enemy combatant; it is just a matter of how much explosives to apply.

It is the public/American society that is not willing to accept the collateral damage.

Did you even bother to read the complete summary? No. Well, let me qoute the relevant part for you: "According to the BBC, Morrell also 'acknowledged the already-leaked documents' viral spread across the internet made it unlikely they could ever be quashed,' but hopes to prevent the dissemination of a further 15,000 documents WikiLeaks is reportedly in the process of redacting."

Idiot indeed but it isn't the Pentagon

I can only get an EVO by signing up with Sprint... what was your point again?

I'd like to see an ATT powered EVO... the EVO is currently CDMA, ATT is GSM... just FYI

The summary sucks... confused me at first... it is 500MHZ = 280 (120 from broadcasters) + 220 from the feds

MS has really stepped up their embrace and extend if they are putting windows drivers on Android phones now
