Sep 23rd 2008 2:32PM @TMM
I've been tethering with my t-mo dash for a year now, with no problems. Granted I don't use it daily, but there have been some weeks when I'm out of town, my ISP is messed up, whatever, where I put some reasonable use through it.
From what I've heard, they either don't care or can't tell, as long as you aren't running bit-torrent through it or something obvious like that. (The t-mo sales guy at the store said he and his family have been doing the same for years also, for what thats worth.)
This may be changing with 3G now, who knows. I think that with their current (slow) network, they were probably just wanting to sell as many data plans as possible.

May 4th 2008 10:52PM what about "free Iraq"?
I agree that Tibet should have the right to secession if they want, (or Tibetans to have equal rights as the rest of China if they want to stay) but the US is currently doing much worse things in much more places, and seeing as that's our government, maybe we should start by ending those occupations first.
China has a pretty messed up government, but the "greatest purveyor of violence in the world" is still the US, by far. Lets keep that in perspective when criticizing others, and also keep that in mind next time the US offers to "help" other people, in Tibet, the Middle East, or elsewhere.
Sorry if this borders on being a political rant, but (a) everyone else brought it up, and (b) the facts speak for themselves, I'm just pointing them out.
HP creates radical 'memristor' technology, brains explode {Engadget}
May 1st 2008 2:59PM Somehow the current re-distributes ions in the device, which changes the resistance value of it.
instead of storing a charge like a capacitor, it stores a resistance value. So when current goes through it, its resistance changes over time, and stays that way until reset by an opposite current. Something like that, but I don't fully understand yet.
Also, some of the articles I was reading also said that this somehow disproves large portions of circuit theory. Which I really don't understand at all.
