I've been considering Tmo for the past couple months, for a euro trip later this year. From what I could tell, they had always been offering their SimpleChoice customers free data and texting in europe. So I'm confused, this new special "for the sum…

It's a tremendous display of confidence in the soundness of their code. It will either be supported by durability after deployment, or seen as a tragic case of overconfidence. Ultimately I think it is an unwise decision because if it does turn out…

What a ridiculous situation. Obviously Apple needs to find a new legal team to deploy in China. Someone dropped the ball. There are many visual differences between that Chinese product and Apples. Nobody would mistake the two.

Wow, what losers. Linked-In has been one of the biggest spam-sources I've run into. And I've NEVER joined it. Never will. But plenty of others have had their contact lists raided by LI, and immediately I get another unwanted invitation. Just li…

Is voicemail stored locally as well? I got pestered by my iPhone recently that my voicemail was 95% full, but it didn't really say where that fullness existed. I deleted a bunch of old VM, but didn't check beforehand on available storage, so I dunn…

So where is Gartner's analysis for PROFIT-SHARE? Because that's what matters in the phone business. Back when there was a large platform-dependent battle of standards going on in the PC industry, then market-share mattered, because dominance deter…

Pity that MS (and other giants) can buy up small apps like this, and then kill them off. So much for a competitive marketplace. The original developer got rich, no doubt, but the users that created their value are now stuck in a lurch.

The methodology of Fortune's rankings has never really been made clearActually, AI made them a little clearer back in 2014, when it reported that: "Forbes says the rankings are calculated by a formula which includes a variable portion of the compani…

there are some questionable results to be sure. Cisco and Oracle -- hardly household names -- outrank giants like Nike and Mercedes-Benz, for example, suggesting that the list is not based purely on consumer appeal. Thank you for recognizing this. …

WTH is a "legal squared circle"? I did a quick google of it, and only found other news outlet's coverage of this same story. Seems that there's tons of plagiarism going on, which is typical in the entertainment media. Finally found "squared circle…

I strongly suspect the $399 price is a big factor in its popularity. I'm almost ready to ditch my iP5 for the SE, solely to gain biometric sensor and faster chip. Almost. But not quite.

Sounds like a good option for folks in remote or rural areas. I recently drove 5 hr round trip just to get to an Apple Store, to have my swollen and bulging iPhone 5 battery replaced. Cost was $79 (plus fuel and time off work). If it could be don…

Look like an interesting design, although the marketing photo AI chose to lead with makes the thing look quite clunky. But 3mm is rather thin. About as thin as the bezel on my Apple wireless keyboard. Pity Amazon couldn't manage to get the thing to…
