Opening the Cellwaves

,----[ Quote ]
| How long before the carriers and the FCC admit that the new transmission 
| medium for radio is the cell system? And how long before they also recognize 
| that the cell system is properly part of the Net's infrastructure and not 
| just cordless telephony with messaging tacked on?   
| 
| [...]
| 
| The question here is, can our free & open brethren lead the way? Or will we 
| wait for Apple and its proprietary allies (including AT&T) to get a head 
| start and then make open versions of what they do?

Netroots Nation Keynote

Quote for the day:

"The core of this trial is consumer choice and the premise is that consumers
ought to make that decision, not Microsoft. Microsoft’s argument that says
Java would have died anyway is a little bit like saying if somebody shoots you
they can defend [themselves] by saying you have cancer."

                                --David Boies, lead trial attorney DOJ

FCC Chairman Says 'Balance' is Key to Net Neutrality

,----[ Quote
| But the controversy over network neutrality remains. "The FCC hasn't said 
| whether [broadband providers] can have a fast lane versus a slow lane," said 
| Martin. "The Commission hasn't spoken to that. To the extent you are 
| asserting network management as a defense against the four principles, all 
| the applications have to be treated the same, or it's truly not about network 
| management but about arbitrary blocking."

| filled-to-capacity hearing started.
