Bluetooth Restrictions with Bell Canada
Washington Post – Aug 23, 2007
You can always use Bluetooth on your cell phone to connect to a Bluetooth headset or hands-free kit, but it’s up to your cell phone company to enable the use of Bluetooth phones as wireless modems or for syncing data wirelessly with a PC, and many (including Bell Canada) don’t. But as the reader suspected, various third-party companies–such asDatapilot–will sell you a data cable and software for moving address books, photos, ring tones, and other data from your phone to your PC. Bell Canada says that the cable and software will cost more than its phone image service–but that depends on how many photos you transfer over the lifetime of the phone. Either way, if you plan on moving photos off your cell phone, be sure to ask your carrier what your options are before you sign a contract. Newer, more-expensive phones generally have so-called side-loading features–the ability to move data to and from flash storage (built-in or in the form of removable memory cards)–so you may be able to dodge the image transfer charges that MacDowell ran into.

This is a significant business change for us, and it’s also what we think the market in general is seeing. People have been saying that this was the year of iSCSI for the last five years, but we think finally that statement is correct. We’ve been seeing growth in people moving from DAS to SAN and NAS. As far as the configurations, we’re seeing high port counts, which means there’s more storage behind the card, which means SANs are growing. It also means we’re seeing a lot more midrange and enterprise deployments of iSCSI. It’s maturing not just into small implementations but large ones. Aren’t today’s servers powerful enough to eliminate the need for offload cards?Boucher: There’s no question an alternative to using acceleration is to add more processors.
