Φαίνεται πως τό άρθρο της Ναυτεμπορικής από τα μέσα Μαΐου το οποίο είχα αναφέρει τότε, αποδείχθηκε έγκυρο, όπως αναγράφεται σε έιδηση στο ADSLGR.com. Στον ιστοτόπο αυτόν βρήκα και έναν σύνδεσμο στη παρουσίαση μορφής Μicrosoft Powerpoint την οποία έκανε ο Γενικός Διευθυντής Τεχνολογίας του ΟΤΕ σε θέματα ADSL, κ. Ιωαννίδης, εχθές 14 Σε αυτή βρίσκει κανείς […]
I’ve written before (also here) about network neutrality as I believe it is one of the most important aspects of legislative policy that affects billions of people, yet has been largely ignored, as were the DMCA and ECD before it. After discussing this with a friend, I decided it’s probably time to write a bit […]
This is one of tennis’ paradoxes and it makes the Grand Slams this year, and I guess probably for some years to come, so much more interesting. Roger Federer (pictured left) is one of the best and most promising male tennis players in the world, and some argue one of the greatest, if not the […]
I just read that Apple might include a Collaboration API in Mac OS X 10.5 “Leopard”. I have seen no information about the technical aspects of this (and it’s just an unreliable rumour), so my critique will remain rooted in past technologies Apple has released and their general approach to sharing their technology with the […]
What is Skype? What is Asterisk? The Skype/Asterisk Link Some final words Technology is changing the telecoms industry (and market) so rapidly it’s sometimes easy to lose yourself in the chaos, especially if you’re not interested/involved in the technology field. Telecom companies are typically manned by ‘traditional’ engineers/salespeople/managers that have no clue about (and no […]
Να και το πρώτο βήμα προς τον εκπολιτισμό της ψηφιακής. Στο πρίσμα+ πλέον μπορείτε να επιλέξετε αν θέλετε να βλέπετε υποτίτλους. Πλέον δεν εμφανίζονται (στα προγράμματα που δεν έχουν καμμένους τους υπότιτλους στο video track) παρα μόνον αν πάτε στο teletext σελίδα 888. Καιρός ήταν αν και η χρήση DVB-SUB θα ήταν προτιμητέα. Άντε και […]
A few days after the debacle with the Holux GPSlim 236 and its faulty Bluetooth Radio (I returned the unit to Expansys France for a refund), I got another SiRF III unit to replace it. This time it wasn’t a Holux product, but the more ‘conventional’ (perhaps the ‘standard’) GlobalSat BT-338.
Ι had heard a lot of good things about the SiRF III chip so I decided to replace my ‘trusty’ (but with its fair share of problems) Fortuna ClipOn GPS unit with a newer receiver. After looking at the different options, I opted for Holux’s GPSlim 236, a small, light receiver with decent battery life, […]
