The mobile web usage stats are a bit obtuse: mainly because Samsung sell 'phablets' whereas Apple don't. I dare say that if you add ALL iOS sourced web traffic, it still exceeds Samsung's. Even taking the stats as they are (i.e. flawed meth…

Whichever way I do it, I can't mathematically reproduce that 4.3%. Could someone either correct the article or correct Gartner please?

The chances of this legal battle being even remotely over are nil. The fat lady hasn't even begun to practice her scales yet, let alone sing.

I liked the ad for its style (but then I'm quite a fan of those crazy Icelanders anyway and their off-the wall sense of art) but I agree that the criticism inherent within it is bogus. I can also see that despite it being targeted at a very small …

I would rather see just touch sensors extended into the bezel rather than display elements 'underneath' it (why bother? Just make the screen bigger). With an out-of-screen touch sensor you could implement edge gestures such as scrolling and swipe-…

That is one ghastly shade of pink. Here's hoping this is another rumour that sinks without a trace!

I'm not surprised there was a hiccup - the comms are handled over Bluetooth yes? In an auditorium with 5000 people, most of whom will have their bluetooth switched on, there was likely to be a LOT of interference in the ether... With that in mind,…

Seems a bit perplexing to me. The costs involved in the variation of the manufacturing process must be quite high for what seems to me a rather niche product offering less than something better at only a small amount more. Are people who buy iPod …

That is not 'Marble Arch' in the example picture - it's Brighton Pavilion! Marble Arch is in London, next to Hyde Park. Brighton is on the coast... Someone clearly got their stock photography wrong!

Is this article actually an advert or is it a paid placement? Why would I buy a very expensive casing for my phone that very effectively dampens its radio transmission/reception anyway? This isn't 'news' and if it deserves a place anywhere o…

This 'announcement' just reinvents the 'people centric' phone that Microsoft already did with Windows Phone 7/8. And arguably that's nicer. And still it's bombed in the market place. People like a proper landing page / home screen. This Faceb…

The file slash slash slash thingy doesn't seem to kill Firefox. Which is good. Can't test it in Safari... too many important tabs I need to keep open!

Nope. Not recognised. Not one little bit. I have a Brother inkjet/fax/scanner/printer now. I only use the HP for printing (because lasers are cheaper to run). What ****es me off most is that there's now a desk dedicated to these things and o…

Forget 5 years. Try TWO. I am very unlikely to buy an HP printer ever again for my Mac. I bought a Colour LaserJet multifunction printer / scanner in April 2011. Within a year there was an OS X update from Apple and the scanner stopped…

Honestly, I don't understand how this patent was granted. I've seen this as 'prior art' on all sorts of systems for years and years, including web browser based Flash (or was it Shockwave?) animations for full screen document reading way back in t…

Er... hold on... A powder-blue and gold edged iPhone 4?
