Free The Mobile Phones To Make Them More Expensive (Jun 08 2004 01:59 GMT) - At Techdirt, we're big supporters of consumer rights and convincing companies to do what's right for consumers - but sometimes these groups seem to forget to think one step ahead towards the consequences of their actions. That seems to be the case with a group that is trying to sue wireless carriers to force them to offer unlocked mobile phones which can be used on various networks (though, only the GSM networks, since that's the only case where it would matter). As Eric Lin writes in TheFeature, if this gets anywhere, it could make things worse for the very "consumers" they're trying to protect. Most mobile phones these days are heavily subsidized by the carriers - and forcing them to offer unlocked phones will likely mean much greater reluctance to offer such a subsidy on a phone that could be taken to another provider. Instead, prices for most phones would rise sharply - harming everyone who isn't concerned about having an unlocked phone. |

Message: Which Motorola Has the Best Speakerphone? (Jun 08 2004 01:59 GMT) - I'm currently a Nextel user, and want to go another provider. I can get rid of push-to-talk, but I really love my i60c's speakerphone. The phones I've tried in the past don't have speakerphones worth using; they either sound like the other party is in a tin can, and/or the volume is incredibly low. Anyone have any suggestions? |

Captioned DVD Player? (Jun 08 2004 01:56 GMT) - I've heard complaints about no subtitles on bonus materials here. So my question would fit in well!I'm looking for a DVD player that allows closed captioning. I have had two DVD players and NEITHER show closed captioning, it does allow subtitles if any DVD has that option. But I still have DVDs that do NOT have english subtitles and REALLY want to watch them. |

Scraping Skies and Other Silly Endeavours (Jun 08 2004 01:56 GMT) - This city's full of empty peopleEmpty buildings and empty dreamsThere was a fire on 73rd streetThat didn't really hurt anythingThese lights block out the starsSo the night sky is blank and blueStand on a pier and face the oceanDream of walking off the endIt would be nice to fade awayTo leave this place in every senseBut there's that lingering fearThat everywhere is the sameBreathe the air that's mostly waterAnd hear the sad song of the sea |

This will be of concern to those who are Terrorists, and all who sympathize with Terrorists. Real Americans will be glad of strong leader. Liberals will roll over in fear. |
