just finished reading the article.

Martin, from now on your like a personal here to me!

The way you responded to Steve Jobs is just amazing… few have the guts to do that. I would love to do the same thing.
He is arrogant and over confident. the Iphone is great product and i want one, but i hate the ideia of being forced to use one particular operator or service.
We want freedom… like the freedom fon gives us. If i have to hack the iphone to have that freedom, then so be it.

So nice to find a “fellow-traveler” for universal connection. You might like http://inamidst.com/misc/tenten from several years ago which espouses the ideals you seem to embody.

Love.

For xl:

I would love to think you are right, but, knowing Spanish politicians, I doubt it very much.

It needs an smart guy to sell the NYT impact to your constituents, plus some vision.

Congratulations…

But you have lost a nice opportunity…

If you have done the pictures in Torrenova instead of done it Alcobendas, now you will have a nice tool to put pression over Cala Portet city hall, to obtain renovation permits, and that they allow you to incorporate the “unnoficial and not legally constructed buldings” to the deeds of Torrenova…

For sure that the city hall would be proud to read it on NYT that his small village has an important internet meeting, that takes 3 pages of NYT.

Also is good for the major to explain that thanks to his participation, you’re developing this activities, that left money in the city, give them international, and also is an unpayable opportunity to his village assist to the open meeting with this big brains and investors…
