So this is implemented in pure java? I did something similar, but ported the C X server to Android using the JNI. If you want to compare approaches my source is at http://github.com/tmzt/androix and a test apk is available at http://db.t

Very cool, at least from the code. Is there a demo page?

These products and others allowing one to save text or code to Github seem to be begging for Github to introduce a staging feature in the API. It would allow saving code Into an intermediate uncommitted state, but could even be implementing

Does the Microsoft signing process require that the shim ensure that the chainloaded bootloaders are signed? Does this also require that kernel drivers are signed? How does this affect access to lower system memory as the root user? And wha

Let me start by saying Samsung didn't copy Apple. That out of the way, there is simple no way that "Apple fanbois" could make a market for Apple, people have selected the iPhone in the numbers they have because they like the iPhone. The sam

Of course, and the Foleo was followed almost immediately with the x86-based netbooks. These devices seem to have grown out of the OLPC and intel's long time goal of shrinking their chips for mobile devices. But why was there so much opposit

Because the OEMs and carriers see them as integrated products and not as systems running an open kernel and open windowing environment. They don't see any point in separating the two, defining a clear interface specification between them, a

Interesting, inviting people would seem to be the first difficulty. Consider this: I want to chat with certain people about a certain topic (such as a product feature at work). I want it archived but only visible to the participants unless

With access to the FileSystemObject or automation access to an OCX you could do either of those things. The power of HTAs is you could use anything provided by a Microsoft technology, script Office, access WMI, etc. I wrote a DVD backup sol

Not quite, Android's non-hardware specific parts are more of a patchset. The kernel is still Linux.

In Microsoft's lab was a bunch of unfinished work on voice recognition and handwriting recognition. In Apple's was a complete port of their main OS to an ARM platform ready and tested for years. The board should have been called to account

STA didn't mean store address anyway, what would your long neumonics for store X or store Y be? Having learned 6510 asm when I was younger, mov always seemed backwards and magical to me.

Bad repos might have been the source of your 'dependency' problems, Nokia was the only mobile device user to embrace apt and had a much better product than the CE devices that used 'reflashing' as in wiping the universe and starting over. N

Not exactly, the N900 was the first with a cell radio (except N810 wimax which short lived) so it was a 'bridge' between cell phones and the tablets. Jolla could well outlive Nokia now, with the right manfuacturing partner. (HTC is getting

Yeah, it's odd that Apple didn't adopt WVGA in the first iPhone. Knowing of the Nokia devices made me do a double take when I heard 320x480, I thought it was a mistake and they really meant 800x480.

Most of the fs calls have sync equivalents, but you only want to use them at application startup. IO is slow, Node is evented IO, the requests come in and the requests (to the database) go out, the data comes in and the result is rendered t

I have been trying to find the answer to this, is there a requirement to store the custom keys installed on a SafeBoot UEFI system in flash or otherwise in hardware? Are they stored in EBDA or on a disk partition? I can't see how the standa

I believe the protocol over bluetooth was standard A2DP, but it required a serial protocol to pair the device.

They are only serious about it if they push it to their channel and compete directly with the OEMs. They don't have enough stores to go it alone. If you read between the lines of the recent article in Vanity Fair, it seems Ballmer will not

Microsoft killed RIM a few years ago, the monster is just taking a while to succumb to it's injuries. Microsoft shipped an update to Exchange that enabled wireless syncing and push to WM5 devices, and licensed to client to Apple for iPhone

And do what with it? The transition is happening too fast for that. Nokia was always the one to push features down the stack (S60 to S40) but ZTE can do that cheaper with Android. The reality Nokia never saw was that Android is two systems,

It's certainly true that differentiation matters, but I'm not sure how it benefits Verizon when training sales people on platforms is so important and they barely succeed on getting people who can answer questions about iPhone and Android.

Right, but the reason Samsung is making money is the customer wants the Samsung Android phone and the carriers are selling them, same as they did with Motorola before them. And of course, the customer wants the Samsung phone because Samsung

Didn't this happen with Escient CDDB and FreeDB? You can't assume the community will keep providing you data when there's a plug-in replacement.
