I don't understand the resistance of carriers to eliminate the SIM card. Verizon, and all CDMA phones already are SIM free. You can still lock the phone so it only works with the one carrier, so you can't easily switch without permission. (ie, ha…

There are a few other things that encourage more paid apps on iOS. 1. To set up an account on iOS, you have to create an account and attach a credit card to it. This even if you want to download any free apps. On the Android phones, you don't n…

The story misses the real scary part of this threat. Writing a fake app with screen shots that look like you have a virus is extremely simple. Writing an app that asks you to enter your credit card info is very simple. Getting that app into peo…

I have heard that some of the best buys are only selling you iPads if you agree to purchase THEIR extended warranty. You decide you don't want that, then no sale. They still sell out and this gives them more profit to deal with.

The in app purchases are for content to be consumed on your phone. It doesn't mean they get a 30% cut of EVERYTHING sold through the phone.

This goes against what the analysts said a few weeks ago where they thought the component costs were going to be some $20-30 higher for each phone. Go figure.

Go Europe. More restrictive rules that don't really help anyone. Apple created an awesome product and gives businesses opportunity to make money hand over fist, and they whine that Apple takes too large a percentage. 30% isn't that outrageous to …

Often times, when working on my phone, I wish I could have more than 1 thing open at a time to view. Be it 2 web pages, or email and a web page, etc. I could see a concept with 2 screens working. Essentially, you could create 2 independent syst…

The previous first day release record was around 100,000 phones. They said they broke that record by 5 AM and continued selling through to 8PM. If they had 50,000 phones per hour in the first 2 hours, and the rate continued the same throughout the…

It actually does make sense as long as Apple can produce a better experience than the rest of the market. The interface on most TVs is horrible. By completely integrating the AppleTV interface natively into a TV, you have simplified the TV process…

The true brilliance of Apple is that they know when to say no.

I wonder if AT&T is counting dropped packets. ie, their system sends out a packet, but the phone never gets it because of bad signal. That could explain the discrepancy, as the phone never knew the packets were sent. However, you shouldn't be…

I don't remember any advertisements that claimed the iPhone 4 to be more durable. Harder and stiffer glass, yes. Meaning it will scratch less and not break while in your pocket when you sit on it. But never rated to be dropped any distance. All t…

The crapware on the iPhone is extremely limited. Now that you can tuck it away in a folder makes it acceptable, I suppose. Still wish I could delete them or at least hide them completely if I wanted to. On my Android phone though, the problem i…

If anything, I would hope that they put both CDMA and GSM into the iPad. Space constraints aren't as much of an issue in that device. It would totally suck to have to buy a different model to connect to a different carrier. By having dual radios,…

I'm guessing Apple would be willing to work with production in Brazil. Spreading production to different areas reduces the risk of something going wrong with the supply chain. As long as his factory can produce the quality Apple demands and at the…
