Next time this happens, don't let the circle happen, start shouting orders at people. Become a manager on the spot. Tell them to do anything. Something as insane as telling them to do jumping jacks will work. I've been in that situation bef

Why are patents related to a wireless standard that one is required to use to interoperate with the networks not available for licensing? How in the world is anyone supposed to even develop a cellular modem without infringing on these paten

I have iOS 4.3.x on my iPhone 3G and it stutters compared to iOS 3 at the same time. So much so that when I got my iPhone 4S I noticed how much the iPhone 3G lagged and stuttered that I no longer use it, even as a simple iPod.
