I read this title much more literally, I thought they had seen an uptick in physical tiny piano sales (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c3/Schroeder_Pian...)

Re:Twilio Raises $17 Million Series C To Expand Abroad on Wednesday December 07, 2011 @12:15PM (#3324687)
It's a good service, but unless they bring prices way down, some big provider (Cough Amazon..) is going to come in and eat their lunch. Granted they probably wouldn't offer the level of detailed APIs that Twillio does.

We started using them for SMS sending but went with Nexmo at a fraction of the cost.

This is crazy, happened only a couple miles away from my house...

Definitely a cool, will make porting iOS apps easier. However, a lot of the ideas in UIKit are meant for a touchscreen and wont translate well.

Re:ShowHN: an easy way to track your packages on Thursday February 17, 2011 @11:17AM (#2231427)
I suspect the delivery companies know this information internally, but don't want you to freak out if your package says it will arrive at 10am but doesn't come till 2pm because of traffic or the truck breaking down.
Re:Apple: if we get you subscribers, we deserve a cut on Tuesday February 15, 2011 @12:46PM (#2222277)
It's more than just providing a subscriber base, it's the infastructure to process recurring payments, while making it stupid simple for the customer. Whether this is worth 30% is debatable, as some of us know it's not trivial/cheap to do on your own.

"wget" is not installed on a iPhone. You would use something like NSURLRequest/NSURLConnection.
