I'm a laptop owner, who uses Dmcrypt, and with a 2 second boot time off SSD, i never bother hibernating. Better check what kernel....

I can see why they don't want people using such devices during take off and landing. (i.e, paying attention to the crew in an emergency). If you're using the IFE system, they can interupt that - not if you're on an IPOD buried in a e-reader etc.

Their Business Desktops are actually pretty decent. The Probook 5310m/5320m line make awesome Linux laptops, SSD, 3G inbuilt.

I love my Nexus S, and maintain it via Cyangenmod, but the simple fact is that the majority of handsets are hopelessly out of date, with known security problems, and the networks just don't give a shit.

Again, how do you know a security hole affecting 3.5.x isn't also present in he 3.0.x codebase?
