Linuxant - DriverLoader for Wireless LAN devices strives to bring the very latest Wireless LAN technology to the Linux community. It's a compatibility-wrapper allowing standard Windows NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification) drivers shipped by hardware vendors to be used as-is on Linux x86 systems.
That is the solution to support devices for which no adequate native open-source drivers are available. Very famous chipsets such as the hyped Centrino hardware or even WLAN 802.11g chipsets in cards like my Truemobile 1300 are not yet supported by the hardware vendors - 6 months or more after chipset release.
Linuxant probably didn't manage to get hardware vendor license their stuff, so you need to buy their DriverLoader for $19.95 as noted here
They have quite a strange way of loading the windows NDIS drivers via a local webserver, mounted at port 18xxx that is open where you have to provide your root password - not just a very bullet-proof way I guess.

It seems Nokia's N-Gage is already cracked and the crackers say they are able to play its games on other devices... well - again - human built protection cracked by humans... check this article ...
Nokia considers Psion a takeover - in a bid to dominate the multibillion-dollar cellphone software market and fend off Microsoft. They are already partners in Symbian, which makes software used in mobile phones. Nokia currently owns 32 percent of Symbian and Psion has 31 percent.
A takeover of Psion would give Nokia control over Symbian and help it head off growing competition in cellphone software from Microsoft, the world's largest software company.
Now what would this have to mean for Sony Ericsson's P800 , P900 series runnig symbian aswell.. this dominance might be a problem for some SE-execs, don't you think so?
