I remember Soledad Obrien did, and got teased by that animated co-host on msnbc.

Why is paying for sex immoral?

Heya, Nick B here..

The above author made a very valid point =)

However, in the initial "grand scheme of things", Sony wanted Cell processors in every piece of consumer electronics to create a sort-of distributed computing model within your home. More processors and more potential entry points. Who knows if that'll still happen.

In any case, the point I've been trying to make is that vector processors can do crypto very well. The Cell's SPUs are just a very good example of that. Who knows what other vector processors could be used..

I want to apologise for the lack of technical detail available. I absolutely hate it when I read a news piece and can't find further info. The media piece came out of a pre-release talk I did at the Kiwicon security conference.

The full presentation will (hopefully) be done at some international security conference. All technical information and source code will be made available then. No software patents are involved ;)
