Has anybody seen if those bogus apps are in the official Android Market or are in bogus Markets ? I must have missed that from the summary.

I mean in those were Android says a warning message like: do not install anything from non-official Market who you don't whole-fully trust.

Here in Spain we have managed to build (don't ask me how) the largest high speed rail networks on Europe (2600km, aprox. 1600miles).

It has been a total success, but it should be noted that:

-In Spain AVE (Alta Velocidad Española, Spanish High Speed) was developed in entirely in a new network with always two new independent rails. This was in part due to a strange rail size in Spain, that is different from the rest of Europe, so it was a logical step to start the new network with the European standard.
-The network was started in 1992 and it has taken until last year 2010, to generate profits. This is due to the fact that in 2008 the finally completed the Barcelona-Madrid link which connects the two main cities in the country (600Km apart).

There's one thing that is important to think about: are USA main cities links as close as Spanish's of French's ?

The main reason it is such a success is that Barcelona/Madrid link is at the distance where train versus plane takes roughly the same time:

Barcelona/Madrid:
AVE: 2h 38m
Plane: 55m

Why do I say it takes the same time. By experience.

Train:
You take the train in the centre of Barcelona (where you arrive by Bus, underground or whatever) and go to the centre of Madrid in exactly 2h38m.
You can seat in a reasonable space with your computer, cell phone, wifi, you can walk around, even you can go to the bar/restaurant.

Plane:
You take whatever transport from the centre to the Barcelona airport (give it optimal 30m).
Get into your plane, this includes check-in, security scanning, boarding etc... and avoid anything suspicious in your bag, minimum 30m.
Plane taxi 10m minimum.
Flight to Madrid 55m standard. With usual restrictions on planes.
Plane taxi to finger 10m minimum.
Get out of airport 10m minimum (it is the time you take to get out of the airport, it's big, with only handbag luggage).
You take whatever transport from Madrid airport to the centre (give it optimal 30m).

If you sum all the times you see a lot of "minimum" notes, so it is very easy to make this longer, but overall it takes 1h55m inside of the airport and 1h outside of the airport.

You can say the difference in time is very little but the flight travel is an authentic gymkhana (not sure if this is correct in english, maybe adventure ?) to get this time (2h55m) done, full of stress and push here and run on the airport corridors .
In the train the 2h38m is a really comfortable and pleasant voyage, were you can work (full cell coverage at standard rates). No rushes, no small seats even in tourist class. Nothing to compare with a plane experience.

Last minute comments:
Current train average speeds are only 300km/h, it is expected to achieve 350km/h in a few years. No plans to get 400km/h yet.
If we think in energy costs the train wins in economy.

The main question is: does this fit with the city distances in USA ?
