> That sounds very dangerous. With NiMh batteries, overcharging the batteries makes them heat up, usually to about 60 or 70 degrees. That…

Those companies have their own local caches, or pay a local provider to do it for them. Smaller companies don't bother, and modern web…

NTD also applies to HFC connections, I think NBN just wanted to have one "name" for all such devices. It's describing the device by what it…

Wow, that is there, right at the end, and disagrees with just about everything else in the press release. For example, the entire third…
