Wouldn't your desire to have video cameras everywhere and at all times pretty well cover this?

Good Idea

I for one think a porn module would sell like hotcakes. I ahve seen enough people with porn on their Palm....erm PDA to think this would be doable. Not to mention all the folks with Palmasutra and the amount of views this post has received!

Imagine how much porn can be stored on the Memplug adapters & run directly off the card

Would the module be likely to spread a virus?

I like that one. Does it really mean something, or does it just sound funny?

actually given the purpose of this thread that's more appropriate than I thought!
(yeah, okay, my minds sliding down the gutter now.)

You don't have to be conservative to think porn is a waste of time. I think a porn module would only serve really lazy people (with a lot of extra dough), couldn't you just skim pictures off the web and view them in a picture viewer? $30-$40 for some nude pictures? You can fill your computers hard drive with free pictures off the web right now. Handspring would have to be on drugs to license the Springboard platform to any porn related company. The backlash would not be good. Regardless of what any one here personally thinks of porn, our society in general looks askance at porn, viewing it as a sinful thing.

I don't think the porn industry has done much more than take advantage of emerging tech, they haven't really pushed tech further ahead with their own $$s. (You forgot to mention their avid (and early adoptive) use of spam technology.
Warning, what follows is my personal opinion on porn. If you're thin skinned and can't handle rational discussion on the subject, go no farther!
Porn is not a good thing ever. It separates sex from love, turning natural, God given urges into something selfish and twisted. Being a young kid and wanting to see what a naked girl looks like is understandable. Being a married father and looking at porn on your handheld is disturbing. If a person "needs" porn to "enhance" their sex life, there's something missing. Sex is not bad, turning it into a commodity, which porn does, is.

What do you guys think of a content module that featured say Playboy's Playmates of the year? Or Sports Illustrated babes? Would look cool on a Prism. Any way, I think it would be a cool module. You would need to work out licensing issues with the right people.

...like your mother, your sister, your wife maybe; certainly with God. I would hope most people wouldn't even consider this type of module, due to the 'corrupt' database. Rather than frying your PDA or your screen, you would be frying your brain. I realize that that's a pretty high hope.

I thought I wrote that the last bit was my PERSONAL opinion.
4 out of 5 paragraphs were "sticking to the topic" according to you and not "preaching" (BTW, I thought someone had to quote scripture to be preaching, or do you define preaching as any time someone else speaks out a differing opinion on moral issues?)
Also, all you "sensitive" porn cheerleaders- get off your high horses, lots of rational people can have differing opinions from you. Learn to live with it, this is the internet after all.
If you can't read someone elses opinion without becoming incensed, perhaps you should skip the internet and take up a hobby like collecting old nudie playing cards.
Lighten up.

I was lightening up. That was a joke about the nudie cards.
BTW, who said anything about Jesus? I did mention God (as in God given urges) once in my post, but most of what I said about Porn revolved around it's societal relativity- it's adverse affect on relationships.
I think the module would flop. I gave some reasons about why I thought it would flop.
I then responded to a comment about how porn has helped tech. I thought it had more taken advantage of existing tech, not driven it forward.
Then I posted my personal opinion on porn. You proceeded to "roll eyes (sarcastic)" at me and rant about Jesus and Preaching.
Talk about going off subject!
I never said anyone was bad, stupid, or going to Hell because they looked at porn. I said I thought it was a waste of time. Time probably better spent developing relationships with people around you.
You seem to bringing something into this conversation. It ain't coming from me.

The "corrupt databases" are the minds of those who have chosen a way of life which is limiting and difficult, then resent others who do not choose to practice their beliefs. There are plenty of horrible things in the world to worry about much worse than porn... like people who kill, hurt, and hate each other for religion, politics, and morals. Hey icthus, aren't there any prostitutes to throw stones at in your neighborhood?
