This may be a concept, but I want someone to actually make it for any present or future tablet out there: An optional foldable keyboard that acts as phone handset. This is how the it works:

The keyboard is physically independent from the tablet itself, just a peripheral device that you can carry around folded in your pocket. However, it doesn't have any independent functionality. It can only work while connected wirelessly to the tablet. And that's the beauty of it: I can imagine myself carrying the iPad 3G on my backpack, ready to receive calls, and then this cellphone-keyboard in my pocket. In fact, if you add a full screen to its outer shell, it could even act as a secondary display for the tablet. Ah well, maybe in 2012. [Yanko]

Maça Kaka ve Ronaldo’nun ateşlemesi ile son derece hızlı başlayan Real Madrid daha 6. dakikada Maganda’nın çaprazdan Llorris’in bacaklarının arasını görmesiyle golü buldu. Buldu bulmasına da Madrid’in hızını kesen günün formsuz adamı Higuain oldu. İyi bir sezon geçiren ve oldukça etkili olduğunu düşündüğüm Higuain’in boş kaleye atamayıp, direğe nişanladığı top maçın kaderini değiştirdi. Ha attık, ha atacağız diye salan Real Madrid karşısında Lyon futbol makinası erken yedikleri gole karşın mücadeleden hiç ödün vermedi. İkinci yarıda Madrid’in hızı kesilmişti ve Lyon daha da inançlı bir görüntüdeydi. Maganda’dan ikinci yarıda tek hatırladıklarım inek yalamış saçları ve zırt pırt yere atlamasıydı. Lyon özellikle Cris’in hatasız oyunu, Delgado’nun güzel futbolu ve keçi sakallı Lisandro Lopez’in bitmez tükenmez mücadelesi ile sonunda golü buldu. Real Madrid daha iyi futbolculara sahip olduğu için ikinci golün otomatikman geleceğini düşünüp tembelleşirken, maç boyunca Albiol ve Garay arasında hava toplarında etkisiz kalan Lisandro Lopez 75. dakikada ceza sahası içinde harika duvar oldu ve Pranjic’in önüne bıraktı. Pranjic ise affetmedi. Pellegrini golden sonra Kaka dışarı, Raul içeri gibi değişiklikler yapsa da papaz her zaman pilav yemez demişler. Haftasonu 2-0′dan geri gelmenin diyetini bu akşam ödediler. Hem de ne ödemek… Kendi statlarında finali futbolcular tribünden, Pellegrini ve ekibi ise evden seyrederler artık. Bir de Barcelona kupayı kaldırırsa, o maçın sonunda Cristiano Ronaldo’nun suratını görmek… Priceless mı dedin?

Oh, yes.

Update: Much better version from the official site, including downloadable 1080p QuickTime.

Filed under: Internet Today seems to be 'rights for all!' day, or something. It's quite easy to get rights and privileges mixed up, which is the only explanation for the results of the BBC World Service survey: four in five people believe that Internet access is a fundamental right. Like the right to marry, or freedom of speech, Internet access should be chiselled into our constitution.

The BBC survey also has some other interesting findings: unsurprisingly, Nigerians and South Koreans believe the Internet should not be regulated by the government under any circumstances -- while in the UK, 55% believe that some regulation is necessary. The urge towards nationwide unregulated Internet access was strongest in South Korea, where 96% of those surveyed think Internet access is a fundamental right (Starcraft junkies!) -- while in Japan, Russia and Mexico, 75% said they 'could not cope without Internet access'.

I wasn't going to react, but then I also heard the news that Vegans are about to be protected by the Equality Bill here in the United Kingdom. Basically, just like religion, Veganism is being classified as a 'belief'. Cool huh? Anyway, that got me thinking about rights -- inalienable, from-birth, thou-shalt-prise-from-my-cold-dead-hands rights. Is Internet access really something that we should expect, without taxation, without anything in return? We're not talking about 'world peace' or some kind of intangible: we're talking about a network that is actively expanded and maintained.

'A fundamental right' is too strong a term. Breathing air is a human right, but Internet access? Speaking your mind to those that are near you is one thing, but the right to rant like a headless chicken into the infinite ever-reverberating space of the Internet? I don't buy it.
