No amount of corrective press will help, it's too late. I got a haircut today and the owner asked if I'd gotten an iphone 6 yet (I have), and then said I need to watch out for bending.

If this really gets implemented, which I think it won't because there's too much inference to handle, then people who would have texted will just use an app instead.

"Hands-on" is just one problem with the title. "High-end"?? $250? Does this guy use margarine on his toast?

Office is a highly functional software suite, and I would happily use it on iOS. The best scenario for me is iPad with Office. Surface is just fugly and unfun, but Office is the standard. Apple design, apple fun software, and MS document software.

Can someone explain to me the positive argument for the purchase of an iPad along with an always-attached keyboard vs. getting an Air?
