I love this. This is exactly how phone contracts should be set up. Very transparent. T-Mobile seems to be rocking it lately.

I hope that this year is a big turn around for Apple, because honestly, I've been a bit underwhelmed lately. I think that Apple still wins on the quality bar for their devices - even software aside, Apple makes the best laptops (although I think L…

I think that Apple needs to do something. I feel like iPhones lately have just been iterative improvements - fantastic hardware and software to be sure, but nothing too exciting over the previous version, whereas Android and Windows Phone have bee…

Are the rMBP's still choppy? I played with the original gen ones in the store, and while the display is awesome, it lagged on things like Expose and scrolling in Safari. I think I'm going to pick one up with Haswell, but just curious if choppines…

I really like the Surface RT, but it shows Microsoft's knack for getting 90% of the way there and then losing their way. I never thought that another tablet could make the iPad feel cheap, but Surface manages to do just that. The build quality on t…

Alright, by no means am I disappointed in the iPad Mini or the iPad, but I think this is a pretty uncharacteristic refresh for the company. Lightning is definitely part of the reason for this refresh, but I think that the main one is to diff…

I highly recommend people interested in this check out Photosynth, by that other software company. Really neat stuff.

Palm OS was probably the only thing that would get me to move away from the iPhone/iPad. I picked up a Touchpad back in the day, and I have to say, in many ways it was a lot nicer than the iPad - rough around the edges for sure, but some of the co…

I think that this all points to Apple having NFC for the iPhone 5. Think about it - the iPhone hasn't had a big feature upgrade in years. Siri was a bit of a flop, and while things have been refined, competition is as fierce as it has ever b…

Pretty excited about the new Kindle Paperwhite. If the screen is as nice as it sounds, I'll be picking one up soon. Kinda a terrible name, though. I think the big thing is going to be data - at $50/year, that puts the 9" Kindle Fire at over …

This is the standard technique, as far as I know: http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect2=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=/netahtml/PTO/search-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&d=PALL&RefSrch=yes&Query=PN/5963671 which see…

Selfish, I know, but I am really enjoying getting to see all of these prototype designs.

I'm probably alone in this, but I'm a bit disappointed with the Retina MacBook. Hardware wise, it's beautiful - I couldn't even begin to criticize it from this angle - but it's the first Mac in years that hasn't run at a constant 60fps, which I th…

The one thing that I don't like about my iPad is that I have to carry a bag of some sort if I want to take it somewhere (at which point I typically just grab my laptop instead). On the flip side, I have the $80 Kindle, which fits in my jean pocket…
