My news server sent the following back to me (and identically when transmitted to Google) from an earlier post of mine today: Subject: Re: CRLIB Command? Date: Wed, 01 Nov 2006 16:38:34 -0600 But that's what the time was in my own time zone, not the news server's time in Germany, showing that at least *my* NNTP host appears to preserve the user's own time stamp in the message header, much the same as with SMTP email. A web-based posting host would not know the user's own time, however (unless a time zone were specified in a profile), and would have to use its own local time. When I read posts from that same NNTP server in Germany, my own newreader (Opera) translates all times, however, into my local time, for displaying and sorting articles by time (*if* the declared times and GMT offsets are all true). This doesn't work for some people's posts, however, given that some new posts arrive with past or future times anyway, even after translating to my local time, indicating that some of you must be either on speed or on tranquilizers :) [r->] [OFF]

I personally use it along with googlebar light, IE tab, flashgot, foxclock, fireftp, bugmenot and tabmix plus. Opera not only do not have such plugins, it is also not very compatible with a lot of poorly designed web sites. I do use Opera on my phone though JY
From: Yao Konan on 2 Nov 2006 04:28 Are you talking of advanced mobile phone or of an hypothetic HP handheld math tool taking advantage of the state of the art current technology ? Because mobile phone with a decent rechargeable battery should have at least 1 day of battery autonomy with moderate talking time and multimedia use,and several days battery autonomy in standby mode. As you talk of battery life,you are certainly talking of AA or AAA batteries,then in this case let me say that it would be stupid to say the least to use AA or AAA batteries in such tools. TI is rumored to have troubles with battery life with the NSpire. That they don't use rechargeable battery is beyond my comprehension. With the explosion of mobile phones,anyone which can be interested by tools such as the nspire should have at least one mobile phone,thus is used to rechargeable battery. Before fuel cells become available and affordable,rechargeable battery is the best solution for advanced handheld tools. What would be according to you the battery life of Qonos in Linux mode ?
