Don't hold your breath. Most of SK Telecom's stuff is CDMA, so that's how they'll stay. I do wish they'd get with the times, though- When the Hero came out, I noticed that my Korean classmate had one, but it was completely silver. Then I noticed the "june" branding (used by Helio's parent, SK Telecom, in Korea). He said that it had been out in Korea for 4 years already, and that it wasn't a good value now. Now, with the new phones this is less true, but it does show how far behind America is when they consider a 4-year old phone "amazing".
They should get SKY and Motorola into their lineup. They have some great Korea-only phones that would make great Helio exclusives (believe it or not, Motorola's Korean lineup far surpasses what they offer America).

Hallelujah- I've put up with the crap fan-translation for far too long. This is so addictive, even if I can't understand all of it. It's essentially Monopoly, but takes advantage of the fact that it's not limited the same way as a normal board game and does some neat stuff.

I have had it with most of the US providers- Helio and KDDI Mobile are bringing things in the right direction now(mostly Helio, not so much KDDI Mobile, though they have potential).

Softbank (they're better known for Yahoo than by their wireless carrier name, I guess) already does this for normal people, sort of. They have a "search for my phone" service- report your phone lost, and if it has a built-in GPS they will remotely activate it and report its location to you (and presumably law enforcement so that they can go after it). I think it's a great idea (both what I just said and the post).

Don't think so.

DoCoMo should buy out AT&T and release their phones in the States already. They're halfway there (all of their phones support FOMA Plus, which is the Japanese name for 850MHz WCDMA, like AT&T uses) and the wireless market is approaching a large shake-up (700MHz, the introduction of Helio, Sprint and unlocking, etc).

If you call a drastic interface change (CoverFlow for the FInder, QuickLook) and a new backup program firmly integrated into the OS (Time Machine) a service pack, then Vista would count as an extremely large service pack too... that eats resources like no tomorrow. For example, it can't run properly with 512MB RAM. I interned in Best Buy over in Shanghai, China- complaints about Vista being too slow because of the low-spec systems were common, and they all refused to turn off the eye candy or upgrade the RAM because they insisted that if it couldn't function properly as it was then it was fundamentally broken (an idea I wholeheartedly agree with). New OSx86 converts right there, along with me (Tiger just flies on my Toughbook T5 compared to XP- I never knew a 1.2GHz Core Solo could be so fast).

If WinFS and the other cut features had made it, then I'd call Vista a new OS. Now, I'm trying to wean myself from Windows (I've got to buy a wireless dongle sometime- better than using XP), and upgrade to Leopard later.

Heh- love to see them try to compete officially. They released the DS in China with a library of only 10 games. Naturally, fan-translations of the others were made and spread around, and sales of flashcarts grew.

They better not make the same mistake with the Wii. I have a Wii with pirated games because the vendors have a generous no-questions-asked return policy, and they have discs with emulators and old games bundled in so that I don't have to do all that work. Also, there's a 60-fold price difference between genuine and pirated games- which are people going to choose (not to mention a lot less friendly return policy on the genuine games)?

Buy, rip, patch, install, patch- all legal. I like living in China for more reasons than piracy- regulation means that the EULA line about only allowing installation on Apple-branded hardware holds no legal weight. I bought it, I can install it on whatever I want.

OSx86 wasn't meant for fools like you.
