Open Telephones

BT is creating an open, standards-based platform for which anyone can develop new applications. In other words, the phone has the potential to become more like the Internet with its proliferation of cool new Web sites, tools and services.

This is no small thing. Right now, for example, most of the mildly interesting stuff consumers can do with their phones - call waiting, caller ID, call forwarding - is programmed right into the big computers that route calls around the network. That makes it virtually impossible for some entrepreneur in a garage or some teenager tinkering at his computer to develop a new phone service.

If you earn more,you ought to be prepared to spend more. I agree to disagree with you. I would certainly spend more no doubt about it. The force-spend is making me spend more with the upshooting Oil prices and therefore the other items, they call quintessentials.

Stay calm,breathe easier, I am taking a different perspective.

With the increasing gas prices, My aunt says the gas price in the US has doubled in the last two years, pay hike being a mere 15 %, the people to panic are the automanfacturers to match up their targets. Automanfacturers are pumping more money into research to find an alternative for Gas . More the research and channelized energies, better are the chances to invent a new source.
