Beats said: This reminds me of when people argue and they bring irrelevant points into the conversation. ”You never paid me back my $20.... oh and your diet is horrible!!” I always thought Apple should charge $1 a month for iMessage and Face…

crowley said: https://ipadlinux.org For those actually interested. I doubt there are many. Putting Linux - a desktop/server operating system - on an iPad defeats the purpose of an iPad, which is the ability to use mobile apps with a mobi…

elijahg said: I very much doubt anyone is staying on iOS for iMessage. It’s good, but not markedly better than the alternatives really. Obviously it’s the whole package of iOS + ecosystem that makes iOS so sticky, but this in itself doesn’t p…

ppietra said: I wonder if all Android variations will be able to guarantee exporting to the iPhone!!! If not, why should Apple (the minority platform) be obliged? I don't understand the question. Can you explain? Incidentally, once (heavy Ep…

22july2013 said: I wish Apple would allow alternate OSs on their iPadOS and iOS devices also. Technically they don't "allow" or "disallow" it. There is merely: A) no practical way of achieving it. It isn't easy: takes a ton of work no re…

Why is this a headline? I thought it was: A. common knowledge and B. standard business practice Before people say "but Google" ... when did YouTube, Gmail, Chrome, Google Maps etc. get released on Windows Phone again? Or even in the Windows Stor…

As usual, this article ignores that Samsung created a very similar product for a third party company years ago. And they launched their own version of that product months ago. This is the third iteration of the same idea by Samsung, with the only di…

igorsky said: Yeah because “beating Apple to the market” has been such a successful strategy for Samsung. Yeah, because Samsung hasn't sold more computing devices than any other company in history. Because Samsung doesn't have the #1 smart…

commentzilla said: Getting desperate as the iPhone eats into Android. You guys have been claiming this since 2008. Maybe it will be true by 2024. And quite the contrary, Google should be in a celebratory mood now that Oracle's ridiculous l…

I've said it a million times. I will believe that an iPad will replace a PC with expandable RAM and hard drive, a discrete GPU, the ability to install applications from third party sources, a UX that supports true multitasking, the abililty to execu…

Andy.Hardwake said: A very, very bad precedent opening the door to stealing code from anyone by anyone. Just my humble opinion. Let me guess ... you have never been a Java programmer or anyone who has ever been involved in supporting, adm…

auxio said: There is no doubt that Google's copying of Java without paying licensing fees gave them an unfair advantage over competitors who were paying those same licensing fees at the time. It essentially gained them a mature app developme…

Please recall that the original judge to rule on this case was a former programmer - as a hobby - and he called out Oracle's nonsense for what it was. Had the subsequent judges, juries etc. been required to take an online programming course Oracle's…

@The_New_tonton and @GeorgeBMac: Enough of the self-serving narratives from people who don't buy or use Android phones. Here is the truth: LG was a bizarre combination of arrogant and cowardly. They were cowardly because - similar to Sony - they r…

KBuffett said: Apple really should have dominated the Gaming and Streaming markets by now. They seem to be going things by halves far too often now, rather like Google’s long list of failed offerings. Please know that no top Apple executiv…

dk49 said: If ARM has its own AI engine now, what does it mean for Apple's Neural engine? Is it possible for Apple to completely discard ARMs AI engine in their processors or they will have to build theirs on top of ARMs? If yes then will it …
