1mm? The simcard is based on a standard ISO 7816 card format which is .79mm in thickness. Our company can make sim cards that are .3mm in thickness. That's not the issue. Its the volume requirements to tool enough equipment if all the carriers suddenly did want them that thin. Whose going to make them all?

Whoever said the Constitution was perfect? Just like computer program, the Constitution is as fallible as the men that wrote it.

In a country which is trillions of dollars in debt, which apparently cannot afford to offer national healthcare like others do in the UK and Canada but CAN afford to bail out the heads of banks who've screwed the US population out of their children's future can somehow come up with the rationale to send people to the moon because? Common sense is clearly gone today. I don't know what the hell anyone in government thinks anymore

Anyone who really does their research will understand that nuclear energy is by far the cleanest and safest.Apparent "clean" energy pundits are constantly on CNN or some news puff show saying "This is why we need to go solar or wind powered, its proven technology" Yes proven. But take for instance, The Roscoe Wind Farm (the newest and largest) which generates about 780MW of power. Compare that to the oldest nuclear reactors in Ontario (Candu series) that generates 3100MW (6 of them at full power before they began to get decommissioned) and you simply have nothing able to provide the power demands that today's society requires. The wind farm cost 1 billion, spans 100,000 acres and produces less than a third of power that 25 year old reactors are producing here in Ontario. Take the newer Bruce Power Plant which generates over 7200MW with 8 Candus online and there really isn't any competition considering that entire installation spans about 2500 acres. Yes accidents happen and nuclear is dangerous but I don't see ANY of the same criticism towards OIL after BP and their US cronies POLLUTED the entire US south-eastern coastline for the next 100 years. Why doesn't anyone scream about that? Why? Because it would require that fat-ass clean air economist to drive her bike to work the whole three miles from her cozy Manhattan flat instead of taking her gas guzzling car. Nothing in life is perfect but if you take the number of nuclear incidents and compare them to oil disasters it pales in comparison.

Why did Globalive have to go half way around the world to get money in the first place? Because this country and its investment banking and VC community are a joke and nothing more than ex-bankers playing with a handful of land developer's money. The truth is that any decent company from any field (tech/biotech or other) will abandan/sell-out Canada eventually because our own country lacks the fundamental principles of investing in itself.

While somewhat offtopic perhaps you can explain why RSA SecureID tokens are cream of the crop vs Vasco tokens? They do the exact same thing. The only difference is that RSA has made a buinsess of charging exhorbitant amounts of money for a token they get made in China for 1USD.

"We have placed Galaxy 15 in safe mode, and at this time, we are pleased to report it no longer poses any threat of satellite interference to either neighboring satellites or customer services," Intelsat officials announced." Unknown to anyone, the last shuttle launch had a secret space walk in order to hit CTRL-ALT-DEL on the sat's terminal.

OTP can work effectively and does thwart MITM attacks if implemented properly. Using counter-based algorithms obviously is useless in my opinion but products based on time-based algorithms with effective end user policies are more than effective in doing the job. I'd like to see one person show me an attack public or otherwise that is able to counter an OTP that has a lifespan of 20 seconds and is implemented properly with account lockout policies. Add to that end-user certificates and you have extremely effective security. While there are several vendors with time-based OTP like RSA, Vasco, Identita, the OATH consortium is an open source vendor sposored forum that also has code for producing time-based OTP.
