New law allows "techincal juries" on defenedent request?
Authored by: Anonymous on Friday, August 31 2012 @ 10:32 PM EDT
In the most recent tuxradar podcast, they claimed a new law
*in the US* would allow a defendent to choose whether a
patent infringement case could be heard by a regular jury or
a jury of technical people. I don't remember hearing of any
such changes.

Is tuxradar right or full of it.

HP WebOS: The Phoenix - Who Wants to Get Burned Again ?
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, September 01 2012 @ 12:53 AM EDT
we bought an HP TouchPad during the fire sale..

Wondering if the market will support yet another OS. Of course if HP comes out
with a killer device the past will be forgotten/forgiven.

Apple v. Samsung jury foreman: only the 'court of popular opinion' can change the patent system
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, September 01 2012 @ 10:07 PM EDT
"high spot" of his career? As what? An engineer? An
"inventor"? Seriously?

At the rate things go, it will take more than "popular opinion" to
change things. Only a complete collapse of the system and everything that
supports it will cause things to change.

South Korea Reassesses Its Great Imitator
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, September 02 2012 @ 08:00 AM EDT
Samsung always had a reputation as an imitator where I come from :p. Don't think
this will really change most people's opinion much in my view. I'd say that they
don't get enough credit for what they have invented and developed over the years
though.

Russia Unveils Secure "Almost Android" Tablet
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, September 02 2012 @ 04:10 PM EDT
Newspick

So how "open" is Android's Open Source?
Is there anything to this Russian paranoia?
As a trivial example I offer my own experience with a Huawei Ascend G300 which was sold retail with Vodafone NZ's Gingerbread 2.3.6. Tired of waiting for Vodafone to update to ics, and unhappy with their flapware, I took instruction from www.modaco.com and downloaded from Huawei's official site a "General" ics 4.0.3b934 rom and successfully used the dummy's method of upgrade. All worked fine but for other reasons I didn't like it and downgraded to the "Chinese" 4.0.3b927 rom. Oh joy, gone were all the Google apps, gone Twitter & Farcebook, in their place Baidu, Weibo, and some chinese games I haven't yet learned how to play. But, anchored firmly to the top of all 5 homescreens is a Google searchbar. Yes I know how to get it off the screen, but it's still in the system, and I'm starting to think the Russians might be onto something.
