(Image above by keerthi). Today marks one week since the attacks in Mumbai that killed and injured
hundreds (BB post #1, BB post #2). Skimming headlines this morning in the Times of India, the
post-attack narrative has now turned to the possibility of punitive strikes on Pakistan by India,
with some Indian media implying US support -- things could get a lot scarier, fast, given that both
nations have nukes. US Secretary of State Rice just arrived, and on this same day, they've found
bombs in the Mumbai train station that was an attack site. One of the other aftermath stories I've
been following: what tech devices the attackers used to orient themselves and coordinate
communications before, during, and after the attacks. VOIP phones, SIM cards, and Garmin GPS units,
among them. Some of this information is apparently the result of interrogation with the one known
surviving attacker, and is being printed in Indian tabloids, so I'm not sure of how reliable all of
this is. Anyway, snip from one more reputable account: [T]he terrorists who carried out the rampage
in Mumbai procured with ease five cell phone SIM cards -- three of which were being purchased from
Delhi's Karol Bagh area while the rest from West Bengal's 24 Parganas district, interrogation
records of the only arrested ultra have revealed. Mohammad Ajmal Amir Iman has told interrogators
that right through the fighting, the Lashkar-e-Taiba headquarters in Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir
remained very much in touch with them, frequently calling their mobile phones via a
voice-over-Internet service. The government last year imposed strict rules on the issuance of SIM
cards by cellular services operators following the Mecca Masjid blasts in Hyderabad in May, where
terrorists had copiously used cell phones to trigger improvised explosive devises and send text
messages to their handlers in Pakistan. Here's another account: Each man was equipped with a
Kalashnikov rifle and 200 rounds of ammunition and grenades. The group also had at least one
state-of-the art Garmin global positioning system set, and several mobile phones fitted with SIM
cards, which have now been determined to have been purchased in Kolkata and New Delhi. Three men
had larger bags, packed with five timer-controlled Improvised Explosive Devices. More about the
attackers, who were apparently men in their early twenties, from Pakistan: They apparently took
large amounts of cocaine and LSD before and during the attacks to stay awake, in an altered state
of consciousness. And, a random, weird thing: one attacker captured alive by the Indian authorities
is shown below in a CCTV camera still. Remember how Indian TV news was reporting that his shirt
read "CRSA," speculating that this was some new terror organization, when the attacks were taking
place? Well, take a closer look. That's "VERSA", with the rest of the word cut off -- "VERSACE."

Twenty-four hours after teasing us with news of a major product announcement, Nokia officially
took the wraps off its mystery smartphone on Tuesday at the Nokia World 2008 conference in
Barcelona, Spain. Part of the company’s high-end N series of multimedia computers, the
Nokia N97 trumps all previous models with a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard and a tilting 3.5-inch
touch screen. For example, the smartphone provides easy access to a number of social-networking
sites, and the Web browser supports streaming Flash videos. The N97 also introduces something
Nokia calls “social location,” which uses the capabilities of the integrated A-GPS
sensors and electronic compass to automatically update users’ social networks, or let them
share their location via photos or videos with friends.
The Home screen can be personalized with widgets of favorite Web and social-networking sites.
Finally, the N97 is fully compatible with Nokia’s Ovi Internet services, which include the
Nokia Music Store, Nokia Maps, and the N-Gage gaming platform–though these services have
yet to fully launch in the United States. The Symbian-based smartphone also features a music and
video player, a 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, and a whopping 32GB of onboard memory
that can be expanded with a 16GB microSD card. The quad-band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900) world phone
is HSDPA-capable handset, but it currently supports only the 900/1900/2100MHz bands
(AT&T’s 3G network runs on 850/1900MHz, while T-Mobile runs on 1700/2100MHz). There is
integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, however. The Nokia N97 is expected to ship in Europe during the
first half of 2009, with an estimated price of 550 euros ($695).

The time has come, internet mavens... to comment on this post from 35,000 feet up, of course. After
launching to a
select handful of lucky souls last week, Virgin America has gone live with its Aircell-engineered Gogo internet service on select
flights. As of now, an undisclosed amount of VA flights will offer guests unlimited use (with
certain restrictions around VoIP, we hear) while in the air for $12.95 on flights longer than three
hours and $9.95 for flights under three hours. The airline's entire fleet should be WiFi-ready by
Q1 2009, but for now, why not kill some time tracking planes with live internet access? Fun, right?

In a measurement of statewide web-surfing speeds, Nevada came out on top with speeds of a mere
781 kbps, and that was far above the not-even-broadband speeds of 322 kbps experienced by users
in New Mexico, the lowest ranked state, according to PCMag.com. The technology magazine published
today its list of top Internet Service Providers, as well as the nation’s fastest states
for broadband.
For those of you who looked at those speeds and noticed how much they differ from the multiple
megabits per second most of us buy from our ISP, Jeremy Kaplan, executive editor for PCMag.com,
explains that the publication’s measurements are a reflection of typical web surfing rather
than a straight-up broadband speed test.
PCMag’s SurfSpeed application isn’t measuring speeds the way the ISPs or popular
applications such as Speedtest.net do. Instead of sending a large file to test speeds, SurfSpeed
measures how fast normal web sites can load the multiple frames of information sent down from a
variety of servers. This is affected not only by broadband speeds but by the processing engine
inside your browser, the latency on the servers delivering the web content and countless other
points where a data packet might pause.
To see how your state ranked, check out the PCMag article and charts. I was
bummed to see Texas, my home and the headquarters of AT&T, the nation’s largest ISP, was ranked
19th.

GigaOM -
2 days and 19 hours ago
Today Clearwire
said it had completed the transactions that will allow it to build the first nationwide WiMAX
network, to be known as Clear. CEO Ben Wolff took a few minutes to answer some questions about
what the upcoming service will look like, how Clearwire might handle network congestion and how
the recession might affect the speed with which Clearwire builds its network. Below is an edited
transcript of our interview:
GigaOM: How much will it cost to build the nationwide network and will the
economy slow
the buildout?
Ben Wolff: Coupled with what we’ve spent, the $3.2 billion from our
investors, and based on the same build schedule we released in May, we need to raise $2 billion
to $2.3 billion in additional capital and will look at doing so in the next couple of years.
We’ve got the ability to modulate the build plan to the point where we could reduce that
funding gap by slowing down the build. That’s one of the first things the new board is
going to address in the January meeting — make decisions about how quickly we build.
GigaOM: How will the white spaces
broadband spectrum compete with WiMAX?
Wolff: We don’t see the whites spaces spectrum as being competitive with
our network, much as we didn’t view the Muni wireless networks as competitive. We see it
very much as being complementary with the Clear service. The white spaces spectrum will be
unlicensed, and any time you have unlicensed spectrum as the primary means of connecting to the
Internet you have the potential for interference and quality-of-service issues. We like the idea
of relying on white spaces in some of the more rural areas and dense urban areas.
GigaOM: Will Clearwire or its partners use femotocells to build
out the wireless networks?
Wolff: I think that femtocells are
promising for any kind of wireless network. Having a femtocell indoors will provide better
in-building coverage, and an opportunity for our [cable] partners to look at ways to utilize the
backhaul they have going into the house. I think all wireless networks going forward
could use them, but there are still questions about the business model — who pays for it
and getting the cost of femtos down to a point where they can be cost-effective for a home.
GigaOM: Will WiMAX be as fast as LTE and can it act as a fat enough
pipe to deliver Internet service to the home?
Wolff: I don’t think there is going to be much in the way of performance differences in LTE and
WiMAX. The limiting factor is unlikely to be the technology; it’s likely to be how much
spectrum the operator has available for 4G services. We have 100 MHz of spectrum and are in great
shape to ultimately deliver a robust broadband experience.
GigaOM: What kind of services can Clear deliver using WiMAX?
Wolff: The suite of services people will eventually be able to buy are
residential broadband, mobile broadband for each individual in the house, residential voice, and
ultimately, mobile voice.
GigaOM: Since this is all IP network, will you charge for this as individual
services or will this be one service that consumers can buy and add things like VoIP to?
Wolff: There will be some customers that will use a
bring-your-own-VoIP service and we’ll offer our own managed mobile voice services that will
offer higher quality of service.
GigaOM: What about network management
such as blocking some
traffic or slowing it down when the
network is congested?
Wolff: We will have to experiment with how were dealing with network management
issues. We won’t ID specific bandwidth-hogging apps and try to restrict or limit those.
What we’re going to do is manage the network on a sector-by-sector basis, so if
there’s no congestion we do nothing. If it turns out we do have congestion, we’ll
manage bandwidth for all users in that segment rather than by applications.
GigaOM: Can a WiMAX network really provide the amount of bandwidth necessary to
offer services such as streaming video that can really clog wireless networks today?
Wolff: One of the benefits over 3G is we have much more capacity, and we
designed it to have a large number of customers using a large amount of data — including
consistent streaming capacity.

DynaStop is a utility to examine IPv4 based addresses for Exim and procmail for the purpose of
filtering based upon patterns defined by the administrator. This can be a pivotal factor in email
filtering and server load management, since dynamic IP addresses are typically used for dial-up,
DHCP, and DSL accounts. All of which have a designated mail exchange server through which all
outbound mail flows as defined with many, if not most, large Internet service providers. hr /
strongLicense:/strong GNU General Public License v2 hr / strongChanges:/strongbr / This release
adds real-time blacklist testing with threshold limits. An IP will be listed as Code 3 if it is
listed in at least X RBLs. X can be set by the user, with a minimum value of 2. This should be a
good way to protect against false positives while still taking advantage of what RBLs have to
offer. A few minor bugfixes related to MaxTTL are included. pa
