It's the only movie I've seen out of those listed...
Don't remind me of that disappointment...blek
Blackberry was a single manufacturer outselling all others combined for years on end so I don't really buy this logic. If Android wasn't appealing in some way it wouldn't matter how many manufactures and variations there were, iPhone would still outsell them all combined.
I believe it's a combination of things including variations in prices and form factors as well as the general appeal of the OS itself over iOS. Personally I'm too cheap to buy a turn-by-turn gps device so the free one in the phone effectively keeps me on Android. That and I hate iTunes with a passion (among other reasons).
Good thing I've got you.
I guess this isn't a very popular suggestion. And you seemed to imply you wanted a local archive for your data, something you do yourself.
I would just a large iSCSI NAS. 2TB Drives are really cheap these days. FreeNAS even lets you flag a drive as a hotspare so you don't have to as much about failures.
Then back this NAS up to at least two online storage services. Make sure they're not both the same thing on the back end (like amazon's S3). Actually Carbonite personal can't distinguish iSCSI from a local drive and is unlimited storage for personal use. I'm sure that violates some terms some where but technically it's possible. Pick another high capacity online service for redundancy.
Also, encrypt the data locally *before* it's uploaded (it's just a good idea).
You didn't say how much total data you have to archive or how fast if at all it is growing nor how often you would need to access it. I have seen amateurs making 40TB storage servers from component parts. Honestly I can't think of a reason to go with anything other large capacity drives. I assume 2TB drives don't have any where to go but down in price.
Finally Qt on consoles. Doesn't which one though *scratches head*
Well being in Canada of course you don't need to COOL your house. Trying living some place that gets to 100 degrees F and stays like that for three months straight. Then tell me "open a window".
