Now, really, what would benefit NTP by forcing the shutdown of Blackberrys all over the place? Win them sympathy? Most likely, if it were a dramatic outage, force people to move to an alternative technology, hence ruining any future they may ever have from them. What good was the patent to the Betamax? Talk about stepping on your own dick...

I didn't understand the reasoning behind it either.
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

There probably isn't any meaning in life. Perhaps you can find something interesting to do while you are alive. Like how you found that flower. Like how I found you.

Buttons aren't toys.
