AndyPad Pro low-cost Android tablet now on sale

Not true

There are several questions on this in the AndyPad forum and all of them have an AndyPad admin saying that it will come with the Android Marketplace.

e.g. http://www.andypad.co.uk/forums/t/104/android-market.aspx

Not sure why this isn't more clearly publicised on the site though.

Mozilla outs un-Google site sign-in prototype

Single machine?

If the private key is stored on the browser then doesn't this limit sign-in to a single machine? Or are Mozilla going to issue additional copies of the private to multiple browsers?

Either way it's seems to be a choice between impractical or insecure.

Sun pulls MySQL into its orbit

Dual licencing

For those concerned how MySQL could be worth $1bn when it "gives its products away for free"..

You are overlooking the fact that MySQL is available under a dual licence. Those who incorporate MySQL into a product distributed under a non-free licence must pay for the Enterprise edition of MySQL. Similarly those who want support and a more traditional relationship with their database supplier (MySQL) can pay for the Enterprise Edition.

If you do not distribute your product or distribute it under the GPL then you can use the free (in both senses of the word) version of MySQL.
