It does not look like Russia tries really hard to do something positive recently. There are many smart and interesting people in Russia or from Russia (I speak about culture and science) but they are only small part of Russia (I don't

Yes, of course (I'm Lithuanian myself, that is one of 3 Baltic states http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltic_states ). Those are minor economical advantages: 1) Estonia has euro (currency), Latvia will have euro next

There is error in calculation or wrong assumption somewhere clearly. We have Estonia in top 15 and Latvia in bottom 15. Two neighboring countries that are quite similar in size, economical situation, cultural background and political situat

BB can take 9-10 loss quarters (2.5 years) based on how much equity they have left. That's why they are looking for someone to buy them out.

It shouldn't matter who express the idea. It should only matter if idea is right or not. Just because it was expressed by someone you don't like it is not less right (or vice versa).

I just wonder why aren't you investigating existing smartphones for that. Many of them already have HDMI connection, multi core processors and can be connected with bluetooth keyboard. The software most probably will not be problem wit

Samsung makes Android cameraphones as far as I know and they do it right IMHO. 41Mp are nice, I don't say anything (I had PureView 808 until I dropped and destroyed it), but it is not the most important thing in photography.

... and by white paper you mean "marketing material"? I had Nokia PureView 808 and I agree that it is nice and helps making good photos when downscaled. Idea to use sensor in this way is really interesting but in the end that just

But PaaS is what sells it to me as developer who can show something cool to his management. Now you say that I should drop all PaaS benefits? Why not start with EC2 from the start?

This move is not from Russia (as country/people) but it is from Russian government. They are constantly doing this as it is the only way to make the look better than they actually are.
