Samsung Yepp YP-55V Review
daanger0us writes "RAM based MP3 players are still pretty popular. As
hard drive based MP3 players get larger storage capacity, the RAM based
MP3 players have to add new features to keep themselves compelling to

that's added some pretty cool features at a reasonable price. 256MB of
RAM, FM Tuner, ability to record from a line-in, from the FM Tuner and

It has many benefits over FTP, mainly for running anonymous archives. It is usable on lines with high packet loss ratio (70% WiFi), can go behind firewalls and unoticed by port scans (because of UDP), does not overload networks when hosting ISOs or movies, share files on modem lines without eating all of the bandwidth, and keeps lamers away from your site (they don't know how to get to it).

General Applet Interface Library 0.5.0pre2 http://freshmeat.net/releases/134712/ The goal of the General Applet Interface Library is to give programmers a simple yet powerful applet interface. This library supports both dockapps and GNOME 2 panel applets. The applet programmer doesn't have to care about if the applet will be used on the Gnome panel or in the dock. The library handles that. Over 50% of the code in a dockapp and a GNOME 2 Panel applet does only one thing, setting up the applet window. With GAI, this can be reduced to just a few lines of code.
