Your post made no sense as a response
@Joe
Patents may be public record, but that doesn't mean i can USE THEM if they're already pattented. You cant say they're not "sitting on my magic patent" unless you look at EVERY LAST PATENT. You may have the time, i dont.
@Kevman
Well im glad you understand the electrical grid, because you surely dont understand what an example is...

All you people that are bitching should do a little research before you run your mouths. Hell, take a minute to go watch "Who killed the electric car" and learn about the EV-1 for example.
Look, big oil is sitting on every major battery patent that would allow us to all have 500 mile per charge vehicles that take 5 minutes to charge. For every electric car there is, thats: 10 gallons a week, 40 gallons a month, 480 gallons a year, 4800 gallons after the life of the car that they're not selling. at $3 thats damn near $14,400 for the lifetime of my car. And hell, those are the numbers from my 35 mpg civic. its 3 times as much for a v8 pick up truck!! Why the hell would they let electric cars ever be built!!
And lets assume that 50% of American cars were electric. Well then the oil companies wouldn't sell gasoline for these vehicles AND they would have to sell gasoline cheaper. THERES NO WAY IN HELL IT COSTS $3 WHEN HALF AS MANY PEOPLE USE IT. Thats like a double whammy there.

Jan 9th 2008 1:45PM Yeah, its called common carrier status. I'm hoping they do filter, cause I'll copyright something and wait for it to get passed thru AT&T tubes and retire from the settlement monies.

Jan 5th 2008 1:00AM The problem is that flash storage grows as fast as traditional storage, and sadly, hard drives are MUCH largers.
For the price of 32 GB SSD, you could get 750-1000GB of storage on a HDD. I have a hard time justifying paying $400 for 64 GB SSD, when I can get 500GB in my laptop for less, and that 500GB drive is gonna drop in price just as fast as the SSD
