Oh...

- More evidence of the coming collision between home broadband and the smart grid
- Collision?Not the word I would have used.In any event, I think this is a positive and necessary direction to go. In order to manage more diversified, less dependable/consistent sources of energy, the demand side HAS TO be managed. Without it, we are just setting ourselves up for a lot of...

- In recession, VoIP makes strong case for cutting your home landline

- Bang & Olufsen tries to make land-line phones cool again with BeoCom 5
- No one wants a land-line anymore for other reasons1. The landline service is too expensive considering that all the 'infrastructure' is already there for them. $30 dollars a month is VERY expensive for a landline, and that's why my family is thinking of dropping ours.2. Cell phones are simply more...
