Isn't Sandvine one of the companies that sells IP monitoring, DPI, and throttling products? I'd take anything they say with an ocean of salt.

So hook up a Tomato router to the ethernet port of the verizon router, set your router to spoof the MAC address of your PC, and tell the verizon router to treat it as a DMZ. Problem solved.

They just announced that it will be a minimum 72 hour delay on the live broadcast. Something about problems with fuel line heaters.

I'm using Tomato right now, and the QoS implementation does now allow you to set classifications based on SSID or Wireless vs Wired - it allows classification by specific IP or MAC, but that would mean tweaking the classifications every time a new device shows up. That's not a practical solution. Additionally, I don't see a way to enable multiple SSIDs using Tomato.

I used to use DD-WRT, and I do remember being able to configure multiple SSIDs on a single router, some with encryption and some without. So if DD-WRT allows configuring QoS based on which SSID a user is connected to, that would certainly be a good solution. I just don't remember their QoS all that well.

You could still hook a DVR up to the multicast stream, and time-shift it that way.

And all of that is why we want net neutrality.

Virgin and Cricket are both CDMA. A GSM phone won't work there.

Raising awareness of a boycott and getting more people in on it makes it a much more effective boycott.

The truth is, ISPs need happy customers, or else they will lose them to other ISPs.

Uhh, which other ISPs would they lose the customers to? Very few communities have any sort of choice when it comes to broadband. So the wallet-voting you're proposing is for everyone to go without any sort of broadband access? Good luck with that.

Note that while the Wii Earth project doesn't have any downloads in its google code downloads page, all files are available from its SVN repository.

Yet iPhone developers accept this.

Yet people still legally jailbreak their iPhones to get around the lockout on devices they own.

Can you name some examples?

Sure, a couple quick examples for Wii: Wii Earth, Wiihttpd.

Except if you want to actually test/debug your XNA-developed games on the 360, you need to pay a $99/year subscription fee. If you don't pay that fee, you can't do anything with your homebrew game other than play it on PC. Additionally, XNA only allows development of games - there's far more to homebrew than just gaming.

Correction. 500 minute voice. Though, that doesn't make much of a difference - I never even come close to using 400 minutes, and this is the lowest amount they'll sell.
