$399 is quite high for this market. This does have some nice innovative features, but I could definitely forgo them.

The US Patent Office apparently grants a patent for nearly everything, even if it is stupidly general, simple, or obvious. Pardon me, I'm going to file a patent for a circular thing that vehicles can propel themselves on...

In the prolific identity theft case, some card issuers are apparently far too lax in approving Apple Pay to a phone.

Hulio would apparently be fine with this statement: "If you have a reason to object to the government placing one of their cameras in your bedroom then you must be some sort of criminal. The government has controls in place to ensure that the video …

The iPhone 4S released in 2011 could do 1080p video. Apple is 10 years behind its own products.

I'm a bit lost here. I understand that having the SIM card gives the thief's phone the phone number of the stolen one, but is there any info stored on the SIM that would contain the social media information? But I could see a link between the phone …

Nothing I'm reading here states that WD will be offering a no charge data recovery service nor will the trade-in be overwhelmingly favorable to the customer. Time will tell.

In the USA I've seen plenty of homeless people using phones as a significant means of communication, news, entertainment, maps, bus schedules, etc. Do these "celebrities" think that even these homeless people need to fund sculptures and paintings?

Apple is lagging behind on upping the bottom storage tier. IIRC the free tier has been at 5 GB for a full decade. With the smallest new iPhone capacity at 64 GB and iPad at 32 GB, most users won't be able to stay on the free tier very long for backu…

Just by reading the headline of the article I was thinking "Apple has quite the nerve because a water bottle company isn't going to be confused with computers -- Apple got away with that against the Beatles' Apple Corps" then reading the article and…

Something tells me the date of this article's posting has something to do with the content.

AppleInsider said: The company says it's a grid-scale energy storage project that will be able to store 240 megawatts of energy -- enough to power more than 7,000 homes for one day. Important distinction in terminology here. Even a singl…

iOS sorely needs the feature where calls/messages from non-contacts can be assigned something other than the default ringer. Set this to none and the call won't bother you. Right now the only workaround to achieve this is to set the default to none …

Band of Brothers was soooooo good -- definitely looking forward to this. I liked The Pacific too, but it wasn't quite as spectacular and engaging as BoB.

With so few ports (one) it would be a great feature to add to this: water resistance. Apple has done a pretty good job of doing so with the iPhone and having switches, buttons, speakers, microphone, SIM card tray, and port. Even when in use connecte…

I would have hired a diver to retrieve it -- they'll usually dive for a sunken phone for something like $80, and in this case it would probably be a lot cheaper because SCUBA gear wouldn't have been necessary. A wet or dry suit with gloves, boots, a…
