Anyone who wants both HD graphics and a different style of play, will buy from both the blue ocean and the red ocean.
[ The "ocean" refers to the market or industry. "Blue oceans" are untapped and uncontested markets, which provide little or no competition for anyone who would dive in, since the markets are not crowded. A "red ocean", on the other hand, refers to a saturated market where there is fierce competition, already crowded with people (companies) providing the same type of services or producing the same kind of goods. ]
Halo is such a poor substitute for a FPS, I don't know why anyone gives 2 shakes about the series to be honest. (much less to play it on a itty bitty DS screen)
That's a Bush quote, right? Bush or Rumsfeld anyhow...
As for jyp's response, sure, a mailserver can be used as an open relay if not properly configured and protected, but chances of that are slim (IMHO) for RIM for two reasons:
1) Security is a huge deal for RIM, it's one of the key features that they push as being their edge in the market. If they let their guard down at the infrastructure level, all else if for naught.
2) Imagine how many mailservers RIM must have to handle the traffic we give them. :) If one of those mailservers has been compromised, I would think that they could easily identify which it is, and shut it down. Again, this is all just my theory based on being a SysAdmin at one point in my life. I supposed many mailservers could have been compromised, but then all you need to do is fix those systems and find the hole in your network. That shouldn't take weeks.
