I don't see this happening, or at least not in the way its advertised. Quote: users could check the availability of a particular item Why would a retailer want you to know they were out of inventory? Shops count on people wandering in and …

In other HUGE news: A federal court in New Orleans found: http://www.courthousenews.com/2010/07/23/29099.htm Judge Garza stated: "Merely bypassing a technological protection that restricts a user from viewing or using a work is insuffic…

First, Apple has always argued this is illegal, and they spent money in court arguing that jailbreaking is illegal. They will probably issue a statement saying they are disappointed, and who knows if they have legal challenges left. http://www.l…

And you can believe it, because its an analyst prediction posted on Appleinsider, and those are NEVER wrong. ...ahem... Notice the headline doesn't read "One analyst predicts..." Yes, once again Appleinsider shows that they don't just eschew journal…

Flurry Analytics?? The company that sells applications and services to iPhone app developers? The same company that partners with AT&T? Well, its a good thing their research bolsters their own position, I'm sure they were relieved that it d…

Awesome news. I hope its worth a real announcement and not some quiet update to the Apple store. I would love for Apple to show some pride in their pro offerings.

Why would any publisher charge significantly less for their e-books? Because the cost of production is cheaper? Is buying an album on iTunes that much cheaper than buying a CD? No, in fact I can usually find the CD on sale at the same price or $1…

Mr. Dilger has me convinced. There's NO WAY the brilliant minds at Apple could have made OSX work on the iPad. All of those issues like small icons and font size could never be addressed in OSX. And all those "elements" like the dock and a menu b…

Why listen to Apple? They want content for the iPad, and that's all they want out of this deal. Here's a piece of advice for content providers dealing with Apple: If you look around the deal room and can't figure out who the sucker is, it's you. …

Such a complicated process to get textbooks into kids hands in the public sector. Board of education has to approve books, districts have to budget for them. With all the states that can't even offer laptops for their kids, I seriously doubt they'…

A lot of people have been talking about the huge savings in textbooks by going to an iPad/e-book model. This is great evidence that textbooks will only be as cheap as the publishers want them to be, and they'll only work on the e-reader of choice f…

By revenue? Of the entire company? So if Apple still sold T-shirts, they would be the largest T-shirt manufacturer in the world as well, because you judge your size in any market by how much your entire company makes - not by how many people actua…

No multitasking is a deal-breaker. Putting iWork on the iPad without any way to quickly bounce back and forth between different apps/sources really hamstrings it. I echo others who say this is just a big iPod Touch right now. Well, first gen Ap…
