"Anybody else wish they could go back to the all-caps keyboard?" No, with a hardware keyboard you can't change the letters on it to reflect the shift or option keys. On iPad this is a WYSIWYG feature. It is the advantage of software.

Put simply - advertising has become the scourge of modern society. It is just too much, pushing out content to tell us about things we don't want to know about. It is time the marketing idiots realised enough is enough and that their silly campaign…

1 - The DOJ uses an invalid emotive argument. 2 - The encryption is to keep us safe from those criminals the DOJ thinks it's targeting. Preventing crime is better than prosecuting it after the fact.

Samsung is worried that the kind of customer that buys a product because 'this one is bigger than that one' is no longer going to buy Samsung over Apple. Apple's products are higher quality (a factor of not being rushed to market like Samsungs), so …

OS X on iPhone? The solution is simple - if you need to run OS X, buy a Mac. There is no good usage case for OS X on smaller platforms. iOS is tailored for that. Microsoft are making a big mistake with Windows everywhere, and not producing specific …

By insulting Apple customers (and supporters - many of us through the lean times of the 90s), Samsung are also insulting and alienating some of their own user base. I bought a couple of things from Samsung a few years ago (I'll leave comments about …

Seems Samsung uses marketing-driven design, rather than user-driven design.

Not just Scully and Gates perpetuated the Xerox PARC myth, but Jobs did himself: I think though what he wanted to do was give Apple legitimacy by saying it came out of Xerox PARC. Apple had already done a lot of the work independently of PARC, es…

I'm really beginning to dislike this awkward phrase 'use case'. Sounds like business lingo trying to sound technical or knowledgeable. We have a clear word for it 'situation'.
