INDIAN RUPEE

The British settlements in Western India, South India, and the Eastern Province of Bengal independently developed different coinages in consonance with the local acceptability of the coins for the purposes of trade. Historically, the rupee, derived from the Sanskrit word raupya, which means silver, was a silver coin. This had severe consequences in the nineteenth century, when the strongest economies in the world were on the gold standard. With high inflation in the sixties, small denomination coins which were made of bronze, nickel-brass, cupro-nickel, and Aluminum-Bronze were gradually minted in Aluminum. The very considerable costs of managing note issues of Re 1, Rs 2, and Rs 5 led to the gradual coinisation of these denominations in the 1990s. The Bhutanese ngultrum is pegged at par with the Indian rupee, and both currencies are accepted in Bhutan. The Indian rupee is also accepted in towns in Nepal which lie near the border with India. Between 2005 & 2008, new, lighter 50 paisa, 1, 2 & 5 rupee coins were introduced, all struck in ferrite stainless steel. The move was prompted by the melting down of older coins whose face value was less than their scrap value. The coins are minted at the four locations of the India Government Mint. Note the 1, 2 & 5 rupee coins have been minted since independence. Coins minted with the "Hand Picture" are 2005 onwards.

WORLD TRADE CENTER ON 11/9

September 11th, 2001 dawned bright and clears in New York City as an estimated 50,000 people made their way to work at the World Trade Centre. It was a beautiful day, too, in Boston where American Airlines Flight 11 took off from Logan Airport at 7:59 am. United Airlines Flight 175 took off from the same airport just 15 minutes later. Nearly 3,000 people died when the twin towers were attacked by hijacked airliners. The only known aerial photographs of the World Trade Center as it collapsed on September 11, 2001, were released by ABC News on Wednesday. A trove of aerial photographs of the collapsing World Trade Center was widely released this week, offering a rare and chilling view from the heavens of the burning twin towers and the apocalyptic shroud of smoke and dust that settled over the city. They were obtained by ABC after it filed a Freedom of Information Act request last year with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the federal agency that investigated the collapse. They are "some of the most exceptional images in the world, I think, of this event." The chaos on 9/11 was not just in the sky. Some of the worst confusion was around the President.

SUCCESS MANTRA ...!!!!!

SUCCESS MANTRA..!!!!!!!

A lot depends on one’s fate is what most of us believe. Well one cannot altogether undermine this but what ever is in our hands is most of the time underplayed. If we perform well at our end then probably we would always be traveling on the road to success
Simply put it every act of yours bears some result i.e. has its own prospects and consequence. And you act because you decide to do so. You end up burning your finger if you put your hand in fire. Thus this would be a bad consequence of decision making. This is a very natural phenomenon and is applicable every where. A wrong decision of yours is never going to bring you the right results.Most of the failures we meet in life because of some wrong decision attached with that effort at some place or the other.Now suppose you end up opting science as an optional stream despite of your lack of interest, because of some reasons, you may end up managing to clear your 12th exam but you won’t be able to perform better elsewhere.Now when such situation arises at a tender age then it duly becomes the responsibility of the teachers and the parents to play vital role in the decision making process of the child..

5 Steps for getting success in life
Planning: This is another crucial variable that plays a vital role in any successful endeavor. For lack of immaculate planning one usually comes across the unexpected results and happenings. This is not so to say that any planned work or effort does not fail but if well planned then definitely the damage is not that great. For e.g. if an aspirant sets out to prepare for the IIT/JEE exam at the right time with good planning and he is unable to secure good rank in the exam he stands the chances of doing well in the other similar exams.Besides reducing the damage good planning also saves lots of resources. Time and money to a great extent can be saved by good planning. For e.g. in all probability if you plan well before preparing for any exam the chances of success are quite high. Thus success in one attempt saves your time spend for preparing for the second attempt.Discipline:
All your effort can go in vain if you lack discipline in life. Not only your effort but you end up as a failure in life. We can also label it as the mother of all virtues. For e.g. if you decide on to become a doctor and start your preparation with good planning but you are not disciplined enough to put in the required number hours to study then probably all your effort may crumble in a short span of time.Consistency: This is another variable that should find a place in ones personality necessarily. All your activities that form part of your plan or the road to success need to perform consistently in order to achieve the desired results. For e.g. if your planning says you need to put in five hours to your studies daily then missing out couple of days to that end means that your decision making, planning and discipline are at a receiving end.Determination: Undoubtedly a virtue that has made heroes, immortals, legends and kings. The saga of Buddha to Jesus, Alexander to Mahatma Gandhi including the likes of Einstein and Newton stood tall for nothing other than there towering determination to achieve what they wanted at all cost. It won’t be wrong to say that determination is the carrier of success

MEDIA ETHICS.

Media ethics is the subdivision of applied ethics dealing with the specific ethical principles and standards of media, including broadcast media, film, theatre, the arts, print media and the internet. The ethics of journalism is one of the most well-defined branches of media ethics, primarily because it is frequently taught in schools of journalism. Journalistic ethics tends to dominate media ethics, sometimes almost to the exclusion of other areas. Ethics should set guidelines, rules, norms, codes and principles that will lead journalists and all other media workers to make moral decisions. They should not be forced to do so because ethics is applied voluntarily. The media was seen as a very powerful tool, and those in power used it to convey only information they wanted the public to have. The rulers controlled the press and reserved the right to license publications and censor content. The emphasis here is on the control of the press to ensure the promotion of the interests of those in power. The media ethics are so broad but this site will mainly focus on normative media ethics. Normative ethics is concerned with what people and institutions ought to do and how they should conduct themselves. Media workers are part of society and therefore, function within the parameters set by the expectations prevalent in a society at a particular time. Apart from society, the government of the country also informs expectations of what the media ought to do. Consequently, a nation’s media, more than any other kind of institution is shaped by the prevailing political power. Another characteristic of media ethics is the disparate nature of its goals. Ethical dilemmas emerge when goals conflict. The goals of media usage diverge sharply. Expressed in a consequentiality manner, media usage may be subject to pressures to maximize: economic profits, entertainment value, information provision, the upholding of democratic freedoms, the development of art and culture, fame and vanity.

World is been controlled by terrorism

The word "terrorism" is politically and emotionally charged and this greatly compounds the difficulty of providing a precise definition. Studies have found over 100 definitions of “terrorism”. The concept of terrorism may itself be controversial as it is often used by state authorities to delegitimize political or other opponents, and potentially legitimize the state's own use of armed force against opponents. Some definitions also include acts of unlawful violence and war. The history of terrorist organizations suggests that they do not select terrorism for its political effectiveness. Terrorism has been practiced by a broad array of political organizations for furthering their objectives. It has been practiced by right-wing and left-wing political parties, nationalistic groups, religious groups, revolutionaries, and ruling governments. Terrorism is a political tactic, like letter-writing or protesting, which is used by activists when they believe that no other means will affect the kind of change they desire. The change is desired so badly that failure to achieve change is seen as a worse outcome than the deaths of civilians. Terrorism is a form of asymmetric warfare, and is more common when direct conventional warfare won't be effective because forces vary greatly in power. Terrorist attacks are often targeted to maximize fear and publicity, usually using explosives or poison. There is concern about terrorist attacks employing weapons of mass destruction. Terrorist organizations usually methodically plan attacks in advance, and may train participants, plant undercover agents, and raise money from supporters or through organized crime. The current attack been done by terrorism in Asia by suicide attack. This kills many persons and is also affecting to the public.

ABOUT SEAWATER

Water is more important for conserving life in the world to all the living organisms. Every day we drink water, cook with water, bathe in water, and participate in many other activities involving water. Seawater is water from a sea or ocean. On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5%. This means that every kilogram, or every liter, of seawater has approximately 35 grams. The density of seawater depends upon the temperature and salinity. Comparing sea water to freshwater seawater contains all amounts of ions. Although seawater contains about 2.8 times the bicarbonate than river water based on molarities, the percentage of bicarbonate in seawater as a ratio of all dissolved ions is far lower than in river water. Consuming small quantities of clean seawater is not harmful, especially if the seawater is consumed along with a larger quantity of fresh water. However, drinking seawater to maintain hydration is counterproductive; more water must be excreted to eliminate the salt than the amount of water that is gained from drinking the seawater itself. This occurs because the renal system actively regulates human blood’s sodium chloride within a very narrow range around 9gram per liter. This seawater is used for agriculture and it is used for more benefits. Grows crops and marine animals for human and animal consumption, increasing the opportunities for food production in arid parts of the world leaving precious fresh water for human use. Environmentally enhances the arid lands where Seawater Farms are placed, increasing biodiversity and opportunities for recreation and ecologically sound development. Seawater is used for also drinking water by converting process like distillation, reverse osmosis and distillation.

GLOBAL WARMING – AN ALARM

GLOBAL WARMING – AN ALARM


Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of Earth's near-surface air and oceans since the mid-20th century and its projected continuation. Global surface temperature increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.33 ± 0.32 °F) between the start and the end of the 20th century. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes that most of the observed temperature increase since the middle of the 20th century was caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases resulting from human activity such as fossil fuel burning and deforestation. The IPCC also concludes that variations in natural phenomena such as solar radiation and volcanism had a small cooling effect after 1950. These basic conclusions have been endorsed by more than 40 scientific societies and academies of science, including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries.
What would happen if tomorrow we were told that, after all, the Earth is flat? It would probably be the most important piece of news in the media and would generate a lot of debate. So why is it that when scientists who have studied the Global Warming phenomenon for years say that humans are not the cause nobody listens? Why does no one acknowledge that the Emperor has no clothes on?
Believe it or not, Global Warming is not due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This in fact is the greatest deception in the history of science. We are wasting time, energy and trillions of dollars while creating unnecessary fear and consternation over an issue with no scientific justification.

TIPS FOR PREVENT GLOBAL WARMING:
1. Respect the environment 2. Plant a tree3. Use a cloths line to dry cloths instead of a dryer4. Always turn off the lights when exiting a room5. Instead of giving those trucks to play with in the sandbox, give them little cars and have them play on the driveway. 6. Recycle anything possible7. Usage crackers to be reduced8. Don't have them do too much running, as that causes them to expel greater amounts of co2. There are more efficient at lower speeds9. Take shorter showers using less hot water10. Teach kids more about environmental science

To what extent are the Himalayan glaciers melting? Satellites are a crucial tool for monitoring and studying glacial changes. The ESA’s GlobGlacier project is recording data on around 20,000 of our planet’s glaciers, including the Baltoro Glacier in the Kashmir region, and the Gangotri Glacier of Garwhal Himalaya

BT Brinjal... Is it Harmful?????????

BT Brinjal... Is it Harmful?????????

BT Brinjal is a transgenic brinjal created by inserting a gene Cry1Ac from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis into Brinjal. The insertion of the gene into the Brinjal cell in young cotyledons has been done through an Agro bacterium-mediated vector, along with other genes like promoters, markers etc. This is said to give the Brinjal plant resistance against lepidopteron insects like the Brinjal Fruit and Shoot Borer (Leucinodes orbonalis) and Fruit Borer (Helicoverpa armigera). It is reported that upon ingestion of the Bt toxin by the insect, there would be disruption of digestive processes, ultimately resulting in the death of the insect.
Bt Brinjal is being developed in India by M/s Mahyco [Maharashtra Hybrid Seeds Company].Now, the company wants to take up large scale field trials with the permission of the GEAC in 2006-07. The importance of this development can be understood from the fact that no GM Brinjal has been released for an advanced stage of field trials in open conditions anywhere in the world and that this is the first time that GEAC could be giving permission for large scale open trials for a food crop.

The country's bio-technology regulator today gave its nod to Genetically Modified (GM) Bt brinjal for environmental release but the government reserved its decision against the backdrop of raging debate over safety and ecological impact of GM food.
Scientists who were part of the genetic engineering approval committee (GEAC) have come out in the open, alleging US multinationals were pressuring the government. They suspect the companies may have bribed Indian experts to get a clearance for commercial use of the genetically-modified (GM) variety.
“The prime minister is swaying under excessive pressure from US companies. No scientist, unless bribed, will allow Bt brinjal’s commercial use since the GM crop poses a health hazard. Our government is pro-US and wants to emulate it,” Pushpa Bhargava, a leading molecular biologist who was the Supreme Court’s independent nominee to GEAC, said.

“Research has proved that it [Bt brinjal] poses health risks, but there is a nexus between politicians and US multinationals. Politicians do not care if the crop is good for people or not,” he said.
Activists claim a conspiracy to first introduce Bt brinjal and later push other GM crops.
“At least five countries and 50 regions in Europe have rejected GM crops,” Vandana Shiva of Navdanya, a network of seed keepers and organic producers, said.
It is a variety created by inserting gene Cry1Ac from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. The modification is said to make the brinjal plant resistant to lepidoptera (a large order of insects that includes moths and butterflies).
The science and technology ministry claims the GM variety is safe for human consumption, but the environment and forest ministry has sought the view of 50 top scientists by February 20, when public discussions on the issue would be completed and the government would be in a position to take a decision.
The controversy that began in 2002 with confined field trials snowballed into a nationwide debate after October 14, when GEAC allowed commercial use of the GM crop. Promoters Monsanto and Mahyco (Maharashtra Hybrid Seed Company) claim Bt brinjal will benefit small farmers because it is insect-resistant, increases yield, is cost-effective and has minimal environmental impact.
A powerful lobby in the government and industry agrees. “Our experts examined the science behind Bt brinjal and concluded that it is absolutely safe for science and environment. The review committee on genetic manipulation has 30 members and they are the best. They have cleared it,” Maharaj Kishan Bhan, secretary, department of biotechnology, said.

“Our farmers will benefit. Every year, brinjal crop worth over Rs1,000 crore is lost to insects. I don’t know whether people will like the taste of the GM crop, but it is safe for humans,” Samir Brahmachari, director-general, Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, said.
Bhargava, however, said it only reduces crop loss and doesn’t increase yield.
“It has been scientifically proved that GM crops cause kidney, liver and reproductive track problems and skin diseases. Brinjal is the country’s most commonly-eaten vegetable and we should not put the health of the poor at risk. The government must not allow it,” he said.
“The kind of evidence that is coming up, we should freeze every movement on Bt brinjal. We should sit down and gather all evidence first, conduct independent tests and not rely on scientists who have been bought over by multinationals. The people of India deserve better scientific research. GEAC should resign. My faith in Indian scientists has been shaken,” noted health expert Veena Shatrugna said.

ROAD TO FIFA 2010

This will be the first time that the tournament has been hosted by an African nation, after South Africa beat Morocco and Egypt in an all-African bidding process.

TIPS TO MAKE SIX PACK FASTER ...!!!!!

TIPS TO MAKE SIX PACK FASTER




The six packs are comprised of the abdominal muscles. Notice the word "muscles" in that sentence. If you want a great looking pair of biceps, what do you do? You lift weights doing bicep curls in order to make them more prominent. If you want a firm, strong chest, what do you do? You do bench presses to increase the muscle. Getting a six pack is no different -- if you want your abs to be prominent and well-defined, then you need to work them.
However, you can work your abdominals to death, but they will never present themselves if they have a layer of fat covering them. You see, muscles only become visible and define as long as they are not buried in fat. This is an amazingly simple principle, yet an astonishing number of people completely overlook it. For some, just doing endless sit-ups and crunches should be enough to get a six pack...and then they are left bemused when none show. Knowing how to get a six pack fast needn't be a secret.
The six packs is probably the most prized aesthetic look precisely because it is the hardest to achieve. Our arms don't appear to be our body's favorite storage space for fat so, consequently, we can build the visibility of our bicep and forearm muscles very quickly. Even a morbidly obese individual could display them after a bit of work. Our legs are slightly more prone to fat but, again, you can see muscle definition fairly quickly.

The stomach area is where we put out fat and, unfortunately, represents the hardest task to accomplish. Here's the thing -- you can work your abs for months, doing countless reverse curls, crunches and sit-ups. It's highly likely that in that time, you will have built a fine-looking six pack. But unless you have removed the fat on top of the six pack, it will never be visible.
Now, losing weight isn't enough to get the stomach fat off. Again, look for the keyword in the sentence -- "fat". Weight is made of two forms, fat and muscle. If you wish to know how to get a six pack fast, then you need to understand the importance of treating each sub-category of weight properly. You will want to build muscle and burn fat. Muscle is dense and requires an awful lot of calories to keep it going -- so if you build a pound of muscle, you will pay for that by burning fat.
Like it or not, you will have to hit the weights, and hit them hard. You will also have to eat clean, and ensure your body fat percentage goes down steadily. This can be accomplished in a fast period of time, assuming you aren't in terrible physical condition to begin with (it helps if you have less than 15 lbs to lose). It is no good going from 180 lbs to 160 lbs if you are losing fat and muscle, because a significant percentage of the fat will continue to cover your abs. You need to ensure that the vast majority of weight lost is fat.
If you can nail that combination of building muscle, working the abs, and dieting to lose fat, then you could see a six pack in very fast time. Of course, it goes without saying that the harder you hit the weights and the more disciplined you are with your diet, the faster you will accomplish your goal. Suck it up and get it done and you too can rip off your shirt and beam with pride.

CYBER CRIME – INTERESTING FACTS .. !!!!!!!!

CYBER CRIME – A REVIEW







The first recorded cyber crime took place in the year 1820! That is not surprising considering the fact that the abacus, which is thought to be the earliest form of a computer, has been around since 3500 B.C. in India, Japan and China. The era of modern computers, however, began with the analytical engine of Charles Babbage.



In 1820, Joseph-Marie Jacquard, a textile manufacturer in France, produced the loom. This device allowed the repetition of a series of steps in the weaving of special fabrics. This resulted in a fear amongst Jacquard's employees that their traditional employment and livelihood were being threatened. They committed acts of sabotage to discourage Jacquard from further use of the new technology. This is the first recorded cyber crime!Computer crime encompasses a broad range of potentially illegal activities. Generally, however, it may be divided into one of two types of categories: (1) crimes that target computer networks or devices directly; (2) crimes facilitated by computer networks or devices, the primary target of which is independent of the computer network or device.
Examples of crimes that primarily target computer networks or devices would include,
· Malware (malicious code)
· Denial-of-service attacks
· Computer viruses
Examples of crimes that merely use computer networks or devices would include;
· Cyber stalking
· Fraud and identity theft
· Phishing scams
· Information warfare

A common example is when a person starts to steal information from sites, or cause damage to, a computer or computer network. This can be entirely virtual in that the information only exists in digital form, and the damage, while real, has no physical consequence other than the machine ceases to function. In some legal systems, intangible property cannot be stolen and the damage must be visible, e.g. as resulting from a blow from a hammer. Where human-centric terminology is used for crimes relying on natural language skills and innate gullibility, definitions have to be modified to ensure that fraudulent behavior remains criminal no matter how it is committed.
A computer can be a source of evidence. Even though the computer is not directly used for criminal purposes, it is an excellent device for record keeping, particularly given the power to encrypt the data. If this evidence can be obtained and decrypted, it can be of great value to criminal investigators





The ways in which criminals commit crimes is also changing. Universal digital accessibility opens up new opportunities for the unscrupulous. Millions of dollars are lost to computer-savvy criminals by both businesses and consumers. Worse, computers and networks can be used to harass victims or set them up for violent attacks-even to coordinate and carry out terrorist activities that threaten us all. Unfortunately, in many cases law enforcement agencies have lagged behind these criminals, lacking the technology and the trained personnel to address this new and growing threat, which has been aptly, termed cyber crime.Until recently, many information technology (IT) professionals lacked awareness of and interest in the cyber crime phenomenon. In many cases, law enforcement officers have lacked the tools needed to tackle the problem; old laws didn't quite fit the crimes being committed, new laws hadn't quite caught up to the reality of what was happening, and there were few court precedents to look to for guidance. Furthermore, debates over privacy issues hampered the ability of enforcement agents to gather the evidence needed to prosecute these new cases. Finally, there was a certain amount of antipathy-or at the least, distrust-between the two most important players in any effective fight against cyber crime: law enforcement agents and computer professionals. Yet close cooperation between the two is crucial if we are to control the cyber crime problem and make the Internet a safe "place" for its users.Law enforcement personnel understand the criminal mindset and know the basics of gathering evidence and bringing offenders to justice. IT personnel understand computers and networks, how they work, and how to track down information on them. Each has half of the key to defeating the cyber criminal.

NUCLEAR POWER IN INDIA

The sun and stars are seemingly inexhaustible sources of energy. Some nuclear energy is produced naturally. That energy is the result of nuclear reactions, in which matter is converted to energy. Changes can occur in the structure of the nuclei of atoms. These changes are called nuclear reactions. Energy created in a nuclear reaction is called nuclear energy, or atomic energy. Nuclear energy is produced naturally and in man-made operations under human control. Nuclear power is the fourth-largest source of electricity in India after thermal, hydro and renewable sources of electricity. India is also involved in the development of fusion reactors through its participation in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project. India now envisages increasing the contribution of nuclear power to overall electricity generation capacity from 4.2% to 9% within 25 years. India growth is been so fast in past few years from being a non-signatory of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, has been subjected to a defector nuclear embargo from members of the Nuclear Suppliers Group cartel. This has prevented India from obtaining commercial nuclear fuel, nuclear power plant components and services from the international market, thereby forcing India to develop its own fuel, components and services for nuclear power generation. The NSG embargo has had both negative and positive consequences for India's Nuclear Industry. The Indian nuclear power industry is expected to undergo a significant expansion in the coming year’s thanks in part to the passing of The Indo-US nuclear deal. Currently, India's nuclear power reactors consume, at most, 478 metric tons of uranium per year. Even if India were quadruple its nuclear power output to 20GW by 2020, nuclear power generation would only consume 2000 metric tons of uranium per annum.

AVATAR TECHNOLGIES

Filming is just one element of creating a 3D movie, however. “Avatar” also raises the bar on “performance capture” technology, which creates computerized images from real human action. The ability to capture human emotions in computerized 3-D has also advanced. The other part – which most people are more familiar with – is viewing it in the cinema. Here Avatar is less revolutionary. The movie uses digital 3-D technology, which requires audience members to wear polarized glasses. Avatar technology can offer its share of technological benefits. For example, it is less bandwidth-intensive than regular Internet applications. By using this technology it is useful for networks will address the chaos of information overload by providing individuals with the ability to tailor how they communicate with others. It will be done by gathering, managing, and organizing information so it will be more accessible and more useful to individuals than ever before. This technology is using in European countries are employing avatar technology and future scenario work in management planning. Often, the facilitator is an expert interactive software designer, who has involved the use of games and simulations for role playing and brainstorming purposes. This can be considered for the general population and for the business world in online. Avatars and inhabited cyberspaces are in their early phases in terms of knowledge management, but they are here to stay.

LATEST TECHNOLOGY... SMART PHONE



A smartphone is a mobile phone offering advanced capabilities; often with PC-like functionality .There is no industry standard definition of a smartphone. For some, a smartphone is a phone that runs complete operating system software providing a standardized interface and platform for application developers. For others, a smartphone is simply a phone with advanced features like e-mail, Internet and e-book reader capabilities, and/or a built-in full keyboard or external USB keyboard and
Smartphones have been getting WiFi love for a while and no doubt the popularity of the Apple iPhone showed many consumers just how useful it is on a phone. There is something liberating about being able to connect to a high-speed hotspot and go online using a phone without having to worry about “minutes” or bandwidth consumed.
Crave is pointing to a recently conducted survey of more than 1,000 mobile phone users and the results are probably surprising to some, but not to me. The survey found that 77 percent of those with WiFi on their smart phones are very happy with it. A full 74 percent of respondents with WiFi state they use it regularly and a whopping 60 percent of those indicated they’ve only had that smart phone for a year.
It’s definitely looking like OEMs forgo WiFi on new smart phone models at their own peril. This is a case of the consumer getting educated on this technology, and once you go WiFi you never go back.

The advantages of using a smart phone include:
• live (online) access to data
• reduces the number of devices a doctor needs to carry
• much better web browsing capability than a cell phone
• integration of contact / phonebook databases
The disadvantages of using a smart phone include:
• requires an expensive wireless data plan
• a single device means a single point of failure
• policies restricting cell phone use at many hospitals
• bigger and heavier than a regular digital cell phone
• hard to use your PDA at the same time as talking on the phone
Because of the possible cons of a smart phone, we recommend considering a two-device setup, in which you get a Bluetooth-compatible PDA (the Tungsten T5, or E2), and a Bluetooth-compatible, data-capable digital cell phone , and use the cell phone, via Bluetooth, as your "modem" to the internet. We have tested this solution out quite thoroughly, and find it pretty flexible; plus, you can work on your Palm while you talk on your phone.
