I just want to point out that not all NPEs are bad. ARM is the company that designs and licenses all ARM processors (CPUs, GPUs, compilers, subsystems, and more). That company only designs and licenses. They don't actually produce anything. Regardle…

The front should always be black. I've always thought this. Even if the back is hot pink with yellow speckles. The screen should draw the eye, not the bezel. That's not just an opinion, the human eye only sees three things: contrast, lines, and colo…

Am I the only person here who realizes that Amazon's old pricing model single handedly destroyed the market for big box bookstores in the US? If anything Apple's pricing would have saved that entire industry by setting ebook pricing more in line wit…

I just downloaded and tried Radical.FM. Here is my (scathing) review: My mind is blown. This isn't even beta quality. It's alpha quality, and that's being generous. The developers honestly think this can compete with Pandora and Spotify. That's mad…

I'm no Samsung apologist (Apple fan here!) but Brazil should just be happy it's taking the business from China. They knew the conditions would suck before the factory was ever built. This complaint is a joke.

I'm hearing a lot of to about the iPhone 5C being released as a low-end device, yet somehow it will he the same internals as the current iPhone 5. The current iPhone 5 retails (in the US) for $629-$829 (16GB-64GB). Those prices reflect the high-end …
