It's about time a company might have the guts to get rid of a connector that has roots going back to the late 1700's. Sure they keep adding functionality by breaking the pin into multiple segments but it's the same old audio connection with stereo a…

I recently received a credit on my Amazon account of about $21.00. No explanation. Just said Kindle ebook credit. I haven't had my Kindle for a couple of years since I got my iPad mini. I passed it along to a friend who was very happy to get it. It …

Competition is always a great thing. I'm glad that the Samsung and LG phones have improved their phones with newer technology for many functions of their flagship phones. The cameras in particular are very impressive. By having this kind of competit…

I'm not surprised that he is trying to make headlines over this since he's up for reelection this year. It never hurts to stir up the base with a little grandstanding. He has released a new statement that he is not going to pursue legislation that …

A new smaller iPhone does make sense for a few reasons. a) iPhone users who preferred the smaller size will be attracted to it. b) depending on the price it could attract some Android users who want a phone that's not a peice of junk. c) It may be d…

There is a very distinct difference between the Microsoft Band and the Apple Watch. The Apple Watch is designed to look like a fine watch and the watch interface is a primary function. The MS Band looks like another FitBit wannabe. The Apple Watch i…
