I have an unlocked phone, but it won't work on any cell carrier than the one it was designed for.
I've read the original article. The implication that it affects the iPhone is ignorant at best. Since we've all read it the promoter succeeded. A couple days internet ad revenue. Just because it's crap doesn't mean you can't make money from it.
NB I use Firefox with adBlock and noScript, so I didn't see the ads. On 9/25/2010 10:45 AM, Tom Barry wrote:

They are dragging their feet because they make tons of money leasing these devices. The only time they can affect subscribe churn is when one MVPD offers something the others do not offer. This was the case early on for DBS, which introduces DVRs before cable, Near video on demand before cable, and exclusive content like NFL Prime ticket....Regards CraigDo not discount the other benefit from a proprietary solution. That is that you can keep control over it. That in turn allows the cable company to choose innovations based upon their business needs, rather than have the long delay needed implement any new common standard. - Tom ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can UNSUBSCRIBE from the OpenDTV list in two ways: - Using the UNSUBSCRIBE command in your user configuration settings at FreeLists.org - By sending a message to: opendtv-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
