People will buy electric 'miles' at top up stations or swap batteries in a system combining subscription and pay-to-play models. This apparently is the best for everyone concerned. As the article says: "Much like how your cell phone contract helps to subsidize the expensive handset you purchase with your plan, your electric car could also be subsidized with your subscription to using the electric infrastructure." Interesting. Now I obviously always completely misunderstood the motivation for this type of pricing model, as I always thought that the only reason for its existence was in order to guarantee a constant stream of revenue for overpriced services to the very wealthy phone companies. I guess I must have got that wrong...DMKMon, 19 Jan 2009 17:32:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3http://www.davidmkelly.net/Home/tabid/36/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/2/And-a-triple-Pah.aspx#Comments0http://www.davidmkelly.net/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=36&ModuleID=401&ArticleID=2http://www.davidmkelly.net/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=2&PortalID=0&TabID=36http://www.davidmkelly.net/Home/tabid/36/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/2/And-a-triple-Pah.aspxNope this isn't a skating move... it seems if you don't have a post in the root blog then it throws an error - even though the only reason why you have sub-blogs in the DNN blog module is that it's forced on you because it doesn't allow a basic blog category.DMKTue, 06 Jan 2009 08:10:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:2http://www.davidmkelly.net/Home/tabid/36/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/1/Pah-And-I-say-again-Pah.aspx#Comments0http://www.davidmkelly.net/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=36&ModuleID=401&ArticleID=1http://www.davidmkelly.net/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=1&PortalID=0&TabID=36http://www.davidmkelly.net/Home/tabid/36/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/1/Pah-And-I-say-again-Pah.aspxSo today I went to the "Sonystyle" website to order an electronic doodad. Filled in the order details, added the billing and shipping addresses, entered in my credit card details, double checked my cart contents, hit the 'buy' button... and its now suspended, hanging in limbo at 38%...   Contestent number three, do you: close it down and hope that they havent actually processed it and try again try to refresh and hope you don't get double charged close it down and just not bother So I thought I would throw the experience on here as a little five minute blog posting. Open up the site, set up the blog, set account for blogging with. Make a blog post with new account. Notice a couple of mistakes, try to edit... No edit option... huh?DMKMon, 05 Jan 2009 16:11:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:1
