Just an interesting piece of trivia I picked up today. The United States Patent system was created on this day in 1790. According to InfoPlease.com it is also the day the safety pin was patented.
Could it be a coincidence that it is also the day that the titanic set sail on its last voyage in [...]

The European Airline commission has given the go-ahead for Airlines to install mobile phone transmitters/receivers aerials within their aircraft. This will give the traveller the full use of their mobile phones within the aircraft at 35,000 ft. [...]

I know it is going to be hard following up on the heels of Luciano’s rant about the Owners Lounge but this one has been annoying me for awhile already.

WARNING: This post is not for the faint of heart or for RIM employees read at your own peril… (evil laughing subsides)
