I think that the hardest thing that Apple is going to have is that as a fashion item, it's not great if the watch is ubiquitous. This is where I think that Android will actually do well, if they can convince experienced watch makers end up using And…

I got the previous edition, 2.3GHz 16GB RMBP 15, and it's the nicest laptop that I've ever owned. I only have two complaints about the machine: I wish that it had one more USB port, and it is useable but uncomfortable in economy seats in airplanes (…

Roughly in order: EDIT: 0. Agree that LTE would be awesome. Great feature across all of Apple's laptops.. 1. Higher resolution screens. MacBook Airs have the worst displays of any Apple product right now, and while they're not awful, they're fa…

I'm a bit perplexed by this machine. I feel like it's a bit awkwardly squished between the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro 15". The Pro 15" seems like the best laptop money can buy. I can't think of a critique of it, other than wishing that it was…

How the scoring ratings work: http://www.jdpower.com/about/power-circle-ratings.htm Basic point is, they are relative to their peers, NOT a score out of five. Of note: "The highest-ranking company or brand in each segment receives five Power Cir…

Twice the battery life of the old iMac.

I feel like they should have some stop loss limit - like, if more than $100 in in app purchases happen in X time, you get an email with a link to approve the transaction. I guess this probably doesn't happen too often, but still it feels like some…

Call me crazy, but I would love a convertible iPad/MacBook Air.

I don't think it's that mysterious. I think that they under executed on it, and it cost them. I think that there are two ways that they could have done it, and still competed with Apple. 1. Low end. Same model, launch at $349 or and include the Typ…

This looks really neat. I wonder how the public is going to respond, in light of the NSA ordeal - normally I'd be totally gung-ho about this sort of thing, but I admit it does make me a bit uncomfortable (although I'm sure they could turn on your ph…

The thing I don't get about this one is the screen. Hardware's really nice - it's distinct and doesn't feel like another iPad knock off, and the type cover is also really nice - better than any iPad keyboard I've used. Then they put a low resolutio…

Jailbreaking is explicitly, 100% legal (although it voids your warranty): http://www.cultofmac.com/52463/apples-official-response-to-dmca-jailbreak-exemption-it-voids-your-warranty/52463/ There seems to be a lot of misinformation here about …

Deservedly so! I consider myself a pretty open minded tech connoisseur, and yet I can't imagine buying any other think-and-light laptop over the MacBook Air. The only think I can think of reasonably improving on it is a better screen (which …

Google really screwed up the Android brand by allowing low quality manufacturers to damage the brand by not supporting any of their released devices. Ironically, the now Google owned Motorola was probably the worst offender in this regard. Google'…
