YOu could have at least said "What do public displays of affection have to do with anything?"
And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel.

Public displays of aggression? What?

I have a PDA somewhere! I got it in a bag of stuff at a garage sale...

Can an older smartphone without a contract make calls with skype?
eta: if wi-fi enabled.

Skype operates over wi fi, so if you have that, you're good. Phone or computer.

Grr. I'm trying to set up a shortcut to turning on tethering on my phone. Currently I have to fire up Apps/Settings/Wireless & Networks/Tethering & portable hotspot/Portable Wi-Fi hotspot. Too long. And if I set up a shortcut to Wi-Fi, it's actually one step too deep in the wrong direction. In the previous release of Android, I could have a shortcut, but in Gingerbread, I can't work out how.
I downloaded Elixir 2, because it's supposed to let you make a shortcut to anything and everything, but same old same old--I can't work out how to go down the correct fork in the tree, just Apps/Settings/Wireless & Networks/Wi-Fi Settings.
eta: Never mind. Found QuickTeth, an app which is a shortcut to that setting page.

Huh. It seems like you should just be able to, you know, tether.

It's just a matter of getting to it without hitting a million key. My next step is to automatically turn on a wifi hotspot under certain circumstances.

Has anyone jailbreak an AppleTV 2g? It's tempting. But it looks like I gotta boot from computer to do it every time, which would get real annoying. Just curious if I'm understanding the tethered thing right.

I'm trying to work out how to extend my parents' wireless network world. Currently they have a 4 port Wi Fi bridge in the area that gets the most traffic, and wired connections to the guest room (in the middle of the house) and my father's office (the far end of the house). I want to be able to provide them with at least one repeater to extend signal into places not so plagued my mosquitoes.
Here's what's on the label of their box (it's complicated because the stuff is labelled with the cable provider's stuff):
Cable & Wireless
Zhone
6218I2000JA
MAC ID:EOCB4EFF2796
S/N:248 7462
ADSL 2+ 4 port Wi Fi bridge
What can they plug into the guest room to extend the wireless signal on a compatible protocol? There isn't as much need for wireless in my father's office.
