I would just feel more comfortable if I know that we're all on our toes because everyone's aware it's a blue-alert situation

obligatory trek quote

one thinks they would have fitted the things with a red alert bulb and klaxon? or even a blue alert?

Solwise 3.5G plus WLAN Mobile Server Router

general comments

we have a lot of solwise equipment on stock at our company mostly ADSL stuff, and i usually categorise it as cheap n cheerful thats not disparaging by the way i find the fact their kit does what it says on the tin and nothing else useful and they often get some unusual new bits of kit in such as this 3.5g router.

personally i would only consider using 3G as a last resort if your broadband went down at one customer site of ours we deployed a vigor router connected to a nokia phone this allowed us to use the 3g to continue working when both their adsl's went titsup. even their vpn worked!

solwise are a good company excellent customer service and push a lot of interesting new products i love em

Blu-ray Disc sales to hit 100m by Xmas

realistic use

i have a ps3 and a decent dvd player which outputs in component and to be honest for most things im happy to watch DVD's the quality is still fine, i watched an old babylon 5 tape the other day and was shocked at how it had degraded!

i have a few films on bluray and i consider these to be good examples of how good the picture can be. so if any other films come out that will look great in HD ill get them but for now ill stick to DVD, for one i aint shelling out for BSG season 4 in bluray

once again "The wars of the future will not be fought on the battlefield or at sea. They will be fought in space, or possibly on top of a very tall mountain. In either case, most of the actual fighting will be done by small robots. And as you go forth today remember always your duty is clear: To build and maintain those robots"

Sony stands by 10m PS3 full-year sales forecast

methinks

that the PS3 may never eclipse the 360 for sales and certainly not the wii as the wii has universal appeal and the 360 does have a head start and probably a bit more broad appeal

thats not neccesarily a bad thing as the ps3 has some good games with some more on the way, not to mention its a cut price blu-ray player and has social networking if you count horny teenagers flocking round female avatars on ps home as social networking lol

trouble is the ps3 is still expensive...
