1. Comment - D-Link Debuts 3G Mobile Router

   (Aug 30, 2005 - 12:21 AM)

   Wild thought, but did D-Link ever consider that perhaps the 3G mobile companies don't want their bandwidth eaten by people sharing the access? That perhaps the 3G companies even only planned for one computer at a time to use it? I am willing to bet that somewhere in the TOS for many of these companies it clearly states that only one computer should use access at a time. I clearly remember when our local @HOME Broadband Internet, which was later bought out by COX, clearly specified that no sharing of the connection over a local area network in the home was permitted. This was until just two years ago or so when it was changed. I mean eventually I bet it eventually becomes common practice, and the 3G's actually market to that, and promote it, even giving away free routers for that purpose, but I bet that only comes after months of major lawsuits! Just my two cents.

2. Comment - TiVo to Insert New Ads into Recordings

   First let me say I agree completely. Totally ridiculuous to add advertisements, unless they will offer their product for free, and pay for it with advertising dollars. I bet this will be a shot in the foot to them, people will flock away in droves.
   
   While we are on the subject, we have satellite TV. We pay a ton of money each month, so that we can get TV with advertisements. I think if you are going to pay money for TV it should be commercial free. Granted their are other DVR options, I still am against paying money for TV with commercials. I think they should offer the channels for free with advertisements, and then charge money for the advertisement-free channels. Or at least keep commercials to a minimum on paid television. Just my rantings.
