my big bitch for today...

Pre-DOCSIS 3.0 rollout in South Korea hits 100Mbps

11/10/2006 11:26:55 AM, by Eric Bangeman

Those stuck with slow broadband connections have another reason to look across the Pacific with envy. Some South Korean cable Internet subscribers are now able to get 100Mbps connections thanks to deployment of pre-DOCSIS 3.0 hardware by cable operator ARRIS.

"We are pleased to announce this very successful deployment proving the technical ability of the ARRIS Wideband solution to deliver 100Mbps of service over an HFC network," said HCN Operational Director Jong-Myung Joo. "This deployment represents a big step toward meeting the Korean Ministry of Information and Communications' IT 839 strategy of building a converged network to deploy 100Mbps ubiquitous wideband service in Korea."

ARRIS has over 1.1 million video subscribers, many of whom also subscribe to the company's broadband service.

DOCSIS 3.0 is the successor to DOCSIS 1.1, which is currently used by almost all cable ISPs in North America. DOCSIS 2.0b was ratified as a standard, but never deployed in the US as ISPs preferred to wait for version 3.0.

This is the speed you need to download HD tv,movies microsoft and apple. US american people can get about 2mbps and that means long time and crap quilty of movie. When will we ever get 100MBPS? Comcast who said it suppose to be 5mbps i'm getting less than 2mbps.

I wouldn't go anywhere near CRAPcast. But I understand it's hard to avoid a monopoly.

Gerry1,
we be screwed,
Excerpt from an article I found.
We can't have cell phone jammers, WAAAH!, WAAAH!
But Ahmadi found something that does: a cellular telephone jammer.

Five months ago, he installed the C-Guard cellular telephone firewall and complaints stopped. Made by an Israeli company called NetLine, the C-Guard is one of a handful of cell phone jammers commercially available today.

But don't go looking for one at your neighborhood electronics store.

"The technology is illegal in the U.S. and it's our position that it should be," said Travis Larson, spokesman for the Cellular Telephone Industry Association, based in Washington, D.C.

What are they doing? Because I looked and it has nothing about that on the announcements. Did you report it to Admin? Tagging virii to the torrents?

My complaint for the day, actually I have two.

1. I took my Real Estate exam again and missed it by *one* or two questions. The stupid place doesn't let me even look over the questions I missed, even when I said "You don't have to give me the answer".

2. I found out my HDTV (Mitsubishi WS-55859) does NOT have HDMI. I didn't expect it too but figured its new enough it would. I was hopeful that my TV would have HDMI because then I could hook up my computer from DVI to HDMI and play my PC games etc. though my TV (just for a bit of fun).

If anyone knows of a way I could hookup my PC to my TV let me know (either here or PM).

Thanks!

Peace,

Pop Smith

My bitch of the day is how far Sony is going to keep consumers from playing unauthorized copies of their DVDs on Sony systems.





At least it comes with the warning below...

That will just about kill a lot of Sony's DVD palyer's sales. Who in their right mind would ever buy another Sony product anyway with the way that they treat their buyers. If they feel that way, then they should get out of the blank DVD business. Selling blanks that won't work in their own retail players. Don't they see the irony. What do they think we're buying all the blanks for, home movies? LMAO

I actually read that Sony has their own private military (UNIT) that will be going to every house and secretly installing this Self Destructing Chip (Sony calls them SDC's)in all Sony made DVD players.

This is possible because Sony Players have a GPS chip installed on all Home DVD Player machines. Which will make it possible for The UNIT to track them down and install them.

So it will not matter old or new this will effect all.




(wondering how many threads will be started tomorrow from newbies asking if this is true) LOL

WE NOW OWN THE CHILDREN OF AMERICA




MY BITCH
SONY ROOTKIT CORPORATION,IS STILL FIGHTING WORLD WORLD TWO..
IF ANY ONE BUYS ANYTHING FROM SONY,IS NUTS..

Rootkit Guru: The Evil in Sony BMG

So five million of the XCP-protected disks made their way on to the market, and for a time all was well. Until a skilled geek named Mark Russinovich bought one of them, ripped the music on to his hard drive, and then noticed that his computer was behaving oddly. With great forensic skill, he began to investigate.

What he found eventually led to the biggest public relations and marketing disaster in Sony's long history, and to a legal saga that is only just beginning.

Russinovich found that the Sony DRM system surreptitiously installed some software - called a 'Rootkit' - on his computer, hid it and rendered it very hard to remove. In fact, it employed techniques analogous to those used by malware writers - the fiends who write viruses, worms and trojans - to infect and compromise PCs. Worse still, it became clear that the DRM software introduced potentially serious security holes in infected machines. Having discovered all this, Russinovich published his findings on his blog, and all hell broke loose.




Want to buy a PS3 - for $2,000?

p2pnet.net News:- Today was the day Sony started flogging the PS3 (its latest game box which it claims will be good for 10 years) in electronics stores in Japan.

In Japan, Sony had 100,000 ready and all of them were snapped up, says the BBC. But you could still order a PlayStation 3 on eBay -------- for a mere $2,000 or so.

There, business was brisk, as p2pnet predicted it would be.

Back in the country of origin, "Instead of opening at midnight, stores organised lotteries to decide who in the queue would get a long-awaited PS3," says the Beeb, going on:

"Shop attendants with microphones warned impatient customers that sales would end if there were any injuries."

A 60-gig version with hard drive and wi-fi on board costs 60,000 yen (about $510 today) in Japan. The cheaper 20-gig version, sans Wi-Fi, will cost 49,980 yen (about $425 today).

PS3s are expected to go on sale in North America next Friday, and they'll cost substantially more, ie, in the US, the 20-gig HDD model will sell for $500, and the 60-gig model for $600.

And, "European prices are expected to be higher than direct comparisons suggest," says the BBC.

On eBay, "JAPANESE PLAYSTATION 3 PS3 60GB CONSOLE PLAYS US GAMES!" - said one auction page at 7:33 am Pacific. With an hour and 4 minutes to go, the buy price had reached $1,225.00, plus $60 shipping.

Another had hit $1,301.02 with 3 hours and 19 minutes left, and a third was at $1,400 with 2 hours and 50 minutes on the clock.

But the highest bid we saw (at 7:43 am) was $2,025 with an hour and 9 minutes to go. "PS3 playstation 3 60GB ships out NOV 13th + 2 games!!" - said the page
