| Is it just me... ...or does anyone find the whole DataJack thing a bit sketchy? I mean, they are barely out of beta at this point and they're already getting bought by someone nobody has heard of. Hopefully the service improves as time goes on, but I have the gut feeling that there may be a shell game going on. | |

 NOCManMacChatterPremium join:2004-09-30 Colorado Springs, CO | LTE Backhaul Companies have to start moving the internet offloading closer to the cell sites. Cellular carriers do not employ the telco model of internet access. Instead of getting them to a CO and offloading there, cellular companies gather it up regionally (talking states) and offload it at a datacenter or major switching(tandem) location.
This worked fine when cell towers were using a few T1's, but LTE requires gigabit connectivity to each cell tower in urban areas, you'll find that several 40 gig circuits at a central location may not be the best option when offloading at major cities would be more cost effective and reduce internet latency for customers.
Customers and businesses would appreciate being able to get to servers in town rather than go back to a city 500 miles away and back again to get to the same server. | |

and is using local internet loops viable for cell site data backhaul?(ie can they keep the microwave and CO dynamic for the calls while shunting data into the local data loop that is already existing for HSI services).
and while not confirmed i have heard rumors that the Philadelphia Sprint/Clear/Comcast 4g network is using the local Comcast fiber loops as its backhaul. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |

 ThrowDemsOutIf you can't convince 'em, confuse 'emPremium join:2002-03-03 Mullica Hill, NJ kudos:4 | Facebook in battle with Suicide Machine web site
»latimesblogs.latimes.com/technol···ine.html
The Suicide Machine is a clever Web site out of the Netherlands that was designed to free users from their social network lives on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and LinkedIn. You just pick one of the networks, start up the machine, and it graphically shows you unfriending your contacts, one by one, and eliminating all your other contacts with your profile. Forever.
Facebook is now fighting back. The Suicide Machine is reporting that Facebook has banned its IP address, thus foiling suicides. You can almost hear the machine singing "Daisy."
But this is not the end, swears the Web version of Dr. Kevorkian. The Suicide Machine posted a friendly message on its site: "We are currently looking in ways to circumvent this ungrounded restriction imposed on our service! Thanks for your understanding." Sounds like a neat service. I guess Facebook doesn't like people leaving and taking all their info with them. -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page

Here's our list of 10 surefire bets for what the Internet will look like in a decade.
1. More people will use the Internet. 2. The Internet will be more geographically dispersed. 3. The Internet will be a network of things, not computers. 4. The Internet will carry exabytes -- perhaps zettabytes -- of content. 5. The Internet will be wireless. 6. More services will be in the cloud. 7. The Internet will be greener. 8. Network management will be more automated. 9. The Internet won't rely on always-on connectivity. 10. The Internet will attract more hackers. -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page

1. More people will use the Internet.
[note if your capped and pay UUB] 2. The Internet will be more geographically dispersed. [like ther australian chinese french and soon to be uk and northamerican firewalls preventing you communication outside your country?-check] 3. The Internet will be a network of things, not computers. [nope those things cost too much do so little and once you youngins wise the fuck up and realize they are ripping you idiots off well that ends] 4. The Internet will carry exabytes -- perhaps zettabytes -- of content. [wrong again after ACTA its all going to be illegal even the public domain will die as they extend copyright to forever terms] 5. The Internet will be wireless. [yea until its found like cell phones to give you a new form a cancer] 6. More services will be in the cloud. [yea cuase all i can afford is a good joint] 7. The Internet will be greener. [yea as far fewer afford to use it or have a use for it {ACTA}] 8. Network management will be more automated. [haha that form a automation will be your undoing ] 9. The Internet won't rely on always-on connectivity. [so i can have it off and connect , see # 6] 10. The Internet will attract more hackers. [huh go look up the term almost 99% of those online can be called by definition hackers.....UGH uniforming people is a great hobby i see...

the Media companies will still be slow to embrace the internet for the streaming of movies causing netflix and such to still have limited online content. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |

 KearnstdElf WizardPremium join:2002-01-22 Mullica Hill, NJ | Nokia vs Apple, patents a tad broad? reading some of those patents it seems like that are a tad broad and that some cover other non apple devices out there. so either those parties are paying royalties or Apple is just the biggest target since their device competes with Nokia. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |

 |  |  Hanko join:2001-12-28 Eatonville, WA | Re: Nokia vs Apple, patents a tad broad? Unfortunately that would be Daimler, & Benz.
# 1885 - Gottlieb Daimler invented what is often recognized as the prototype of the modern gas engine - with a vertical cylinder, and with gasoline injected through a carburetor (patented in 1887). Daimler first built a two-wheeled vehicle the "Reitwagen" (Riding Carriage) with this engine and a year later built the world's first four-wheeled motor vehicle. # 1886 - On January 29, Karl Benz received the first patent (DRP No. 37435) for a gas-fueled car.
Neither of these guys built the very first internal combustion engines but they were the first to patent them. | |
