Absolutely....... but is there a Thai MP who hasn't?

Folks, that is no good: It took 20 posts until the first looked at the picture and wondered, if that guy is a Democrat or Khun Chuvit ("Show me the problem and I will solve it").

But actually returning iPads or iPods or iSomethings will not change the security of anybody, as long as the communications is still open, unsecured and NSA will catch ALL metadata. Much better would be to turn off the GPS app or function, but then most politicians wouldn't know whether to turn left or right. And even more important is to encrypt mail etc.

Cheers,

The numbers speak for themselves - this is a scam. Anybody wishing to buy 808 of any item would approach the manufacturer, or at least the local representative, and pay wholesale price, and probably get a discount on that for such a large order. And that includes the purchase of the accessories.

That the figure quoted was actually larger than the retail price indicated that greed and stupidity are involved in equal amounts.

BTW remember how the tablets were priced?

Seeing as some members here can't even install gmail without a credit card, converting an ipad into a super spy device is quite the tech acheivement

Easiest method for government to spy on members in parliament would be to put cameras in the urinals.
