Comment Tracfone unintended internet / customer abuse (Score 1) 178

by Regroover (#30335476) Attached to: FCC Inquires About Controversial Verizon Fees
Verizon is not the only carrier to engineer this revenue generating feature. The evil wizards at Tracfone put an internet connection button between the "Send" key and the indicator on the display that says "OK" resulting in lots of unintended charges to the internet. When I contacted Tracfone about this issue and asked to have my internet connection ability (on the phone) disabled, they pointed to the problem being Motorola's MotorolaFlip, and that they could do nothing about it. Lovely to hear the Feds are doing something useful after so many years of ineptitude. THANK YOU FCC FOR DOING YOUR JOB! Perhaps we need to give an attaboy to the other government services when they show signs of life.

Head First Rails 57

Posted by samzenpus from the read-all-about-it dept.
Anita Kuno writes "I suggested Head First Rails to a friend before I even finished it. He was asking me questions that I didn't have time to answer, and I knew the book could explain better than I. My friend is impatient, and I was uncertain what his experience would be. At first he was frustrated, but I assured him the answers were in the book. The incremental style of Head First Rails includes some exercises that are designed to fail to reinforce the learning process. I was confident that his answer would be found in the pages and he trusted me enough to go back and continue the exercises. He later told me he is very happy with the book and grateful that I suggested it." Read on for the rest of Anita's review.
