Of course not. It still requires permissions to install. The manufacturer just allows you do what you wish with the hardware you buy rather than be overly controlling. It allows for a much more individual, customisable, well suited and, with the correct direction, more flexible and usable OS...

Hehe! If only... I am just very respectful of this type of attitude by developers. The reality is that my Palm Pre is a first gen. device and suffers from quite a few teething problems (it's in being repaired now! Doh!). I just wanted to highlight that this isn't anything new and some companies...

In fairness, they should all take the path that Palm are taking with their Pre and Pixi smartphones. They openly promotes development mode, homebrew apps, and patches. The Pre is the most versatile phone I've ever had. It is pretty much 'unbrickable' and adding any patches and homebrew doesn't...

And WebOS? There are much better and quicker platforms out there, I feel so saddened that all these developers forget to look for the other options. It's a shame. :( Unreal engine is already working on the Palm WebOS (Palm Pre smartphones etc.). Edit: Whilst finding a link to the Unreal...

I am always sceptical of these things. To be honest, I reckon these kind of bizarre auctions get put up and then sold to friends so that it gets publicity. I doubt anyone would pay that much for a standard NES (Well, maybe for Tom Goldman's SUPER NES!), and I don't see why someone would chance...

Yeah, I agree with this. Why do we need an English version? Grab some culture and watch it in it's own language as it is meant to be! :) Besides, Hollywood always ruins these kind of things anyway... :(

I think the question is not appropriate. Why? Because my answer would be that games have changed so much over time. Modern games have outstanding graphics and often some excellent functionality. Quite often so much functionality that I feel I never fully make use of it all. However, the negative...

No, I think that's makes two of us...! Sure, it has it's flaws, but what game doesn't? I found it a lot more original and entertaining than nearly every other game I've tried (and I've tried many, before someone asks!). I did wonder whether the British sense of humour that the game has may hold...

For me, it's the cost. Certainly when they are £5 or over, I tend to get most of my games for that price! Why buy a few sheets of paper (with less than half of any direct interest and contain mostly adverts) when I can get 30+ hours of gameplay instead? I used to love getting magazines to...

See, I liked FFXII, especially the realtime combat elements, so I'm hoping this will follow the same lines. I mean, all JRPG's of this ilk annoy me with their incessant FMV sequences but otherwise, I really like them. I'll be buying it... just not for 6mths and the price halves! ;-)

I'd say it was neither a good thing, nor a bad thing. It is just a thing. You're right to say "who cares?". The average person doesn't care. If she was white, I bet nearly every black person in the world would not even consider any discrimination, it's just a story. In fact, I think this is a...

I'm not particularly a fan of rap or hip-hop but this stuff is great! It is really well produced but still makes you laugh inside with the knowledge of the original melodies! Plus, any artist that offers their work for 'you name your price' deserves big respect! And a price! Come on chaps, I...

And a Google image search for the same words brings up this under one of the results: http://www.tabancatufek.com/forum2/printthread.php?tid=3562 There is a sleeve mounted pistol (Although a single shot rather than a 'spring loaded pistol'. There are some other interesting bits down there too.

You mean like this: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/3793759.html A Google search for 'sleeve mounted pistol' had that as number one.
