But these are retarded westerners who have no clue. They deserved every shrapnel from the bomb and still have not paid the full price to all of the victims.

HELL THESE japanese denied the free health-care to non-japanese victims. 20 000 koreans died in the bombings. But nobody cares.

Japanese people were and still are a terrible nation. I hope they sink to the oblivion.

If it would be controlled by non-china company outside of china and programmed by chinese programmers then YES i would be interested.

But your government can't be trusted as well as your companies can't be trusted. Sorry.

I do not feel that there will ever be any real friendship between these two countries. I would compare it to polish russian relationship.

Koreans have every right to feel strong about it. Every damn right. But this is a discussion for another evening.

And replying to your comments above i was talking about the situation in asia in general. You should also know that Korea donated a war ship to Philippines. Do you think this gesture did not have anything to do with the situation in the area ? I very much doubt so.

And yes Dokdo (Takeshima in Japan) is a big thing in Korea.

Heavy Japan alliance with Phillippines is unlikely (history, empire of japan, blah blah).

It's not about anti-japanese sentiment here but more like japanese fear of revenge from chinese and maybe the right time to make a point.

The more passive-aggressive China is the more likely it's that Korea and Japan will do something about it.

All true but South is already a regional military powerhouse with the troops from north and 40-60years of work they could really become as strong as the Empire of Japan was.

I predict the peak to be when the North Korean regime collapses and South tries to absorb the North de facto creating an option for Korea to become a regional military super house. Japanese right wing extremists pushing government to start massive military spending once again creating much more powerful Japan.

I do not really know what will China do at this stage to be honest. It may try to ally with Korea but i think koreans stay neutral and will try to rebuild the North. It is highly possible that the second miracle on the han river may actually happen and Korea gets richer and richer (after all North has a massive mineral resources and a cheap workforce) and korean GDP might start reaching interesting numbers.

I predict Japan will try to push forward and claim the disputed islands with the support of uncle Sam.

At this point I do not know what happens but i see Korea as a random factor that might start shooting at everyone who is not korean.

The 13 model is the one you carry in your backpack and use "anywhere".

I would still be worried about battery life (as it requires much more effort to keep an eye on than on an e-ink reader).

And do not forget about the screen differences. It's still more pleasant to look at an e-ink than on the traditional display.

They just limit attacker's possibilities of getting what he wants. There is no absolute security. Maybe in some kernels like sel4 but they are so small compared to something like linux that it's incomparable.
