@tu madre It may not be "nothing" however when you are the CEO of a company, you have a solid track record and you are managing millions of dollars, I don't think 20k over two years is a lot of money.

That said, they paid me 40 million dollars in severance which is a lot more than 20k.

@victor I gave up on waiting for the Macpro and decided to buy an i7 macbook pro thursday.

If this is true then damn, awesome timing apple.

@huh You're an idiot if you truly believe that. Since manufactures are taking a premade OS that they know litte about and shoving it devices as fast as they can, I predict there will never be an end to "rooting" on production android phones.

Furthermore, linux has kexec now which lets you reboot the phone into a new environment (for example a custom rom) if you have "root"

I though Engadget wasn't going to post this. I've been running a rooted Xperia for two weeks now.

@mrqs Other than samsung, everyone is support two OSes that they didn't write. MeeGo and Symbian are both written by nokia, so it would make more sense to just move the devs over to MeeGo

@Cy Starkman
The iPhone is too big?! Wow I think my Xperia is too small.

@bogglez

Thanks, I'll get one of these and connect the firewire port on it to my two HD-DVR to record shows.

I also like how the PS3 is a whole computer with linux and everything.

Needs a dock port for expandability, a mean of detecting a case /holster like blackberries have, needs a software update and needs more physical buttons.

Wait a second, I'm not up on the iPhone scene anymore but I remember back in the days (around the iPhone 3G days) I built a custom ramdisk with SSH server that allowed me to login to the phone and reset the password (or read/write data) regardless of its lock status.

As far as I know, that still works doesn't it?

@DoctarPeppar If you are willing to pay 300 for an android netbook, then buy a regular netbook and run android on it.
