 Consumer Demand

The "bait & switch" business tactic is really getting old. Yes, clarifications in companies TOS's would be nice for people who find out, quite rudely, that they are evidently enjoying their paid for services too much.

There may not be any federal law against (or maybe there is) misleading your customers, but it's just not a good idea. There's way too much competition in almost all fields of business to do that. For a company to advertise "unlimited" use of a service doesn't seem to mean much these days. I guess thats why companies add "at the company's own decision" to their TOS.

 I want it now

Connecting devices thru a wireless link was supposed to have been here already via Bluetooth. Where is it?

Blue tooth? hahaha

Bluetooth distance is worse than 802.11. Why would anyone want it?

I was under the impression that Bluetooth was on its way out.(?) That is the impression I get from the sales people at big stores like Fry's and Best Buy. They are all pushing 802.11b as the standard. Am I missing something?
