I'm from Europe. And best part is that my mobile operator has SIP gateway, so wherever abroad I am, I always get myself local 3G data SIM card (it's 10 EUR for 1GB on average) so I can use data as much as I want, and I can call and being called (with my own number) with prices just like I would be back home - cheap.
Even better is that I can also send SMS with same app (again from my own number). Classic way, when abroad it can be anywhere from 0.15 EUR to 0.40 EUR per SMS when roaming.
Sending SMS works on EDGE, but for calling it needs to be 3G. Sound can delay from time to time, but it's a small price for keeping home-network-prices wherever in the world I am.

Adobe.... :/
"Don’t be scared of change, be scared of the debt growing in your code base and in in your infrastructure. It won’t go away and there is no government bailout on the way to fix it."
While there is no way to run Flash on iOS devices, accelerometer works only with iOS.
I belive that's what Steve was talking about in his Thought on Flash where he concludes:
"Flash was created during the PC era – for PCs and mice. Flash is a successful business for Adobe, and we can understand why they want to push it beyond PCs. But the mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards – all areas where Flash falls short."
Kudos to html5 and guys creating this experiment. It's awesome!
Cars were getting signal from traffic ligjts and you as a driver got a warning sign like: "drive 30 km/h" to hit green light without stopping.
It lasts for 3y and can be extended for another 3y (I'm not sure what happens after 6y total..).
If you are unemployed for 45days visa will terminate (and you need to leave USA), but renews automatically when you get a new employment (in 3y period).

"Guy driving away with my MacBook."
So guy steals a laptop and drives away, puts laptop on a seat next to him, with screen up?!?
But I would also be interested in any book that gives new insights, expertise or broaden horizon in a compelling and fascinating way.
Book will be rather judged by how good it is, than what's about.
Tiny side project to get Hacker News over Twitter with comments. Click on a link in any tweet to see.
Interface probably is confusing. I'll put sign on handlers first to see if that helps.
Thx for idea about parsing, if I go for that it enables many more options about comment display as you pointed out!
Implementation is shiny yup - for now;) I did it as fast as possible to get feedback and see if it's worth putting extra effort in.
Agree on /new issue. Hmm.. perhaps I shall try publishing everything from /new that gets at least a comment or an upvot... will ping you on twitter when done (prob not tomorrow but by the end of the week).
In that order probably: Phone call, SMS, Gtalk, Skype, Facebook, Email
Would that mean their growth will stop at certain level for a longer period? I guess realization will need to meet expectation at some level. Expectation for Facebook are sure high, but I doubt it can go go for trillion valuation without multi^2 billion revenue.
Would love to hear more thoughts from Paul.
It's an endless game between Matt Cutts his team and SEO spammers but I bet long term on the first one.
Claiming you can do truly multitasking because it has 2 displays is ridiculous, but that's not the biggest issue in my opinion. More of a problem is that whole vision of this tablet is made on old technologies presented in new form. Ooh, they also added pen!
Sort of like best use of radio, when it appeared as new media, would be reading newspapers.
Looks like all the dots are connecting perfects for Jobs and Apple more and more.
Can't tell you much of data value right now as everything is empty so far, but I could agree with rradu's post. Perhaps that can be a nice tool to track competition.
To simplify we are made of cells and breathe oxygen but I would argue life can exists in other forms than one we know.
2 questions: - works world-wide or US only? - how much do you charge per verification (SMS / voice)... can't find on a website, but I see I have $20 balance
We can't deny how versatile smart phones have become, but cutting edge in this case is not iPhone/any other smart phone, but TB Detector.
