Then I think we should have ever increasing coverage of random badly-translated supply-chain rumors. A fool's errand they may be, but there are a LOT OF FOOLS out there. Don't ignore that market!

Apple was doomed yesterday. Today's evidence that they are doing great... proves, somehow, that they are even MORE doomed. Time to "ding" the stock. Apple's been in a nose dive since the 80s. Any appearance of their success is all...

Logitech and some lesser-known companies have made magnetically attached iPad screen-covers with built-in keyboards for longer than Microsoft has been making the Surface. Their only real hardware innovation isn't unique. Their UI is...

A 640x1136 iPhone (same app res as iPhone 5) cut out of the iPad's retina display (264 PPI) would be just under 5" (significantly larger than 4.8). That would be the easiest to make, and would run current apps unmodified. It would be...

It's absurd, but it's not all that far off from what will be the future of professional (not home) desktop (not portable) computing. This feel like the Newton to me: cool, but not fully useful, and ahead of its time. I'm sure it's...

Java is scary. JavaScript is not. Yes, this is a bug that should be fixed, and yes desktop browsers have better anti-tracking controls, but treating this as a security concern is overblown. If JavaScript has a security flaw, then THAT...
