Fastest broadband in Europe? Top of the Championship isn't Top of the Premier League.

Re: How this should have been done

I use the "Edit This Cookie" extension in Chrome for this very purpose - great when debugging.

Conductivity?

You keep using this word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Do you mean connectivity?

Optionally Manned

The nice feature of the proposed K-Max version is that you can still have a pilot in the cabin.

Use the AI for simple Point A to Point B resupply mission or assign a pilot if it's more complicated.

I can't see the K-Max being used for MEDEVAC or personnel transport without serious modification though.

Android app sales skimpy, sluggish, slack, scanty...

Facepalm

If you don't let folks buy Apps, then App sales will be lower.

A large number of Android tablet owners are currently unable to buy apps via the marketplace, at all, even in the UK.

Good business

These are Q1 figures alone, not a year-long results.

By licensing at relatively low royalty levels, manufacturers are happy to continue to license the technology and less likely to switch architectures.

As a result, as long as ARM based chips are being manufactured, ARM Holdings will continue to watch the royalties roll in.

£50m profit every quarter (assuming each quarter is the same) for the foreseeable future is very nice, thank you very much.
