Re crashing a cell network, some friends of mine recently developed a mobile tracking application for a Motorola team building event (you know the sort of thing, give all the competitors a GPS-enabled device and have it upload their current position…

Let's play devil's advocate and ask what rights do you have as a content owner? Let's say you write your own software or record your own music, and for whatever reasons of your own (political, moral, commercial, or just down to prejudice) decide you…

That's good news, but not really unexpected. There will always be bigger, better and faster devices coming along. Meanwhile I'm still very, very happy with my current iPhone (on O2).

Well... maybe. I don't really know enough or care enough about the UK cellphone market (even though I live there) to know if it's over priced or not. I've been on a contract of one sort or another since the year dot, any my last contract (which o…

I'm viewing all this as a bemused outsider but I'm wondering what's so wrong with the concept of variable pricing? It doesn't seem an unreasonable thing to ask for. After all, we're all used to DVDs for feature films or successful TV shoes costing m…

A great article, thanks! No mention of EditDV though, a great piece of software that was around in the mid to late 90s and for the first time brought DV editing to the masses. And of course, built entirely on QuickTime! EditDV went through a n…

I had one of the first generation adapters with a very lightweight strain relief at the computer end. That did suffer after a few months (not from yanking it out as some people suggested but from using it on my lap while plugged in - all the constan…

Sure to be welcomed? Yeah, right. The last time I had a printer from HP the "driver" software filled 2 CDs and I ended up with more than a gigabyte of crap on my system. Dozens and dozens of applications, background processes, and who knows what …

I have some sympathy for Apple. Perhaps they're not as "green" as Dell (though the jury must still be out on that one) but that must in large part be because they care so much about the design, look and feel of their products down to the last detail…

Ok, let me get this straight, Adobe are announcing when they're going to announce CS3...? Did they give any advance warning of that - did they announce when they were going to announce they were going to announce it, or did their announcement of …

Well, it probably costs Apple more than $5 to add a new product and do the admin for something like this, so they have my sympathy if Sarbanes-Oxley really is to blame. It's always great to see the unintended consequences of poorly thought out legis…

I bought a couple of ITMS movies recently when I was staying in New York on business. I could have watched a movie on the hotel's Pay TV for $9.99, or buy it and play it on my Mac Book Pro as often as I want, also for $9.99. The hotel had free broad…
