Jim Dalrymple of THE LOOP just put the lock on this with usually curt, "Yep."

Though there are certainly a large number of people who upgrade their phone every year, I would think the larger majority of people are on a 2-year upgrade cycle. If we assume that's the case, I wonder which is the larger install base of existing…

The PC makes have this hilariously wrong. The people for whom the iPad makes a wonderful, easy to use, PC REPLACEMENT- are by and large people who would could care less about Intel's CPU releases or Mac/Windows OS releases. These are …

I think the only advantage to Apple of moving up to a bigger screen is that it conceivably buys them extra internal space for battery, to counteract the more power intensive LTE chipset. By going to even a 4" screen, they could make the device a bi…

It would be interesting to see a grab from the BluRay of this ep as a comparison benchmark. Anyone got it and can throw it up? The thing to keep in mind with all these lower bit-rate codecs is that they always look better in motion than in scree…
