I can make change by either math or the count to 100 method, but I'll 
stick up for the guy a little bit. After taking 5 calculus classes, 
differential equations, discrete mathematics, and algorithms, my ability 
to do simple addition and subtraction was permanently impaired. I 
studied CS instead of math, but math was an important part of the 
program.

Re: [WISPA] OT - Glad I Didn't Buy an iPhone

[RickG]

We must live parallel lives! I stopped at an Arbys for lunch a while back in
a college town. The register was out. My total was $5.15. I gave the "kid" a
$10 and a quarter. He handed me 4 ones and a dime. I asked him to rethink
the change. He scratched his head and finally the manager came over and
corrected the situation. I asked the "kid" if he was going to college there.
He said yes. I asked what his major was and he replied "I'm a math major".

Wait!  There's more!
The Continental Airlines vertically-mounted plasma screens that show
flight/gate/time in Houston were frozen showing a Windows error... not
long ago.

I had something like that. There is a building in West Palm that has an
elevator. At each stop, the automated computer calls out the floor number.
On the top floor, it plays the old windows error .wav sound. It gives you
a strange feeling knowing Windows is in charge of the elevator in a
skyscraper!

Trust me.  I've seen it and I've lived it.  I used to have to teach these
kids to make change.  I'd say, "Can you count from one to a hundred?"
*YUP!*  "Then you can make change."  Many still didn't get it..
sigh..  "A customer owes 30 bucks and they give you 2 twenties..
How much do you owe them back?" I'd say."I dunno.." would be the
answer.  "You can't count from 30 to 40?"  I don't really fault the schools,
a lot of it has to do with experience.  If you never needed it, you don't
have it.  Brain cells that is.

Obviously you've never seen a cash register worker count change when the
machine is broken.

Longest 10 minutes of my life.  I just tipped them the $2 and change.

Re: [WISPA] OT - Glad I Didn't Buy an iPhone

I had something like that. There is a building in West Palm that has an
elevator. At each stop, the automated computer calls out the floor number.
On the top floor, it plays the old windows error .wav sound. It gives you a
strange feeling knowing Windows is in charge of the elevator in a
skyscraper!

Re: [WISPA] OT - Glad I Didn't Buy an iPhone

[Robert West]

That reminds me of a trip I took to Italy a few years ago.  I ride the city
busses when I travel and the busses were running really, really late.  A bus
pulled up and the sign on the front, where a street name would be, was a
"Dump Error" and inside the bus the routes and schedules were normally on
video screens but they kept blue screening.  Windows XP.  The entire
bus system was on XP (In ENGLISH even!) and the main server crashed causing
all the busses to be "lost".  I was just "flabbergasted", whatever that
means.  I kept saying, "Just drive the damn bus!"  I still haven't a clue
how a server crash can stop a guy from driving a bus from here to
there

Oh how I wish this were true. Even though the technologies are compatible,
Sprint refuses to activate Verizon phones and vice versa.

I'm not sure this is much of a change - GSM carriers have offered this for a
very long time. You can put your SIM in just about any phone (assuming the
frequencies are compatible with your carrier, but most phones support so
many bands these days it's rarely an issue), and go.

Kevin - that's your phones fault, not AT&T.  As much as I hate admitting that.

VVM works on the latest update of the Bold.

Re: [WISPA] OT - Glad I Didn't Buy an iPhone

[Travis Johnson]

Correct... but how many people are going to buy the phone for $500 and 
still get to pay the same monthly for the service, just to not be in a 
contract? It will never happen. It makes no sense, when you can get the 
phone for $199 and sign a 2 year contract and have the same monthly price.

Re: [WISPA] OT - Glad I Didn't Buy an iPhone

[Aaron D. Osgood]

Prior to the release of the Nexus One - Google's input to cellular device
manufacturers was limited to providing the Operating System (Android) only.
With the Nexus One, Google designed the device completely and hired HTC to
build it to Google Specifications (Much like Apple designed and controls the
iPhone but subs out the actual manufacturing). The initial Nexus One is a
GSM device (meaning it will work on TMobile or ATT in the US) but a CDMA
version will be released soon (for Verizon or Sprint). Google is attempting
to change the cellular landscape by selling the device directly without
tying the buyer to a specific carrier - although some carrier's may choose
to subsidize the device if you contract with them).

The new HTC has a 1ghz clocked CPU.

AFAIK Google is not making any hardware.

There are quite a few Android based devices :

I think I even saw a netbook yesterday that came preloaded with Android
and XP setup in a dual-boot configuration.

I had the G1 on TMobile, now have the HTC Hero. I've been happy with

The Android OS doesn't care what the wireless technology is tied to the device. 
There are Android based devices available for GSM and CDMA. There is one soon 
to be released for iDEN networks as well

Droid is VZ only.  Your G1 runs Android software.

The "droid" has been available for months... I think I've had mine for 6 
months... it's called the G1 from Tmobile... (except I use it on AT&T).

[WISPA] OT - Glad I Didn't Buy an iPhone

[Jack Unger]

Thank God I'm not addicted to rushing out and buying the latest consumer 
gadget.

If I HAD rushed out and bought an iPhone, I would not be able to rush 
out now and buy one of these great new Sumsing Turbo 3000s !
