Improving transit directions is fine – personally I'm more of an old-school visual map reader type than a follow directions type. So I more hope to see the transit/route markings improve on the actual map itself. Let me see an overlay of the entire …

This is the biggest confirmation that Apple is about to release a new product... People's wrists are somehow sensing that Apple is close to releasing a wrist-device and are having an allergic reaction from wearing what will soon be a sub-par device.

Steve says, "next time you're using a Mac, remember these are the people who made it, they're hanging out somewhere in the ROM". I widened my focus out from the video frame to look at my whole iMac and kinda got goosebumps!

@maccherry: Well said! And I kinda get goosebumps hearing the crowd cheer when the demo shows the eraser too or the zoom-in pixel editing! Concepts that happen so easily today that we barely remember we even do them.

I appreciate how well crafted your review of the ad is. But you misrepresented a couple things... 1) the opening shot is not an otherwise gray background %u2013 it seems like golden aura of rising sunlight is given to the entire shot deliberately, n…

I think a Formula 1 race car would be a more appropriate analogy if you want to discuss bandwidth usage. iPhones use up a lot of bandwidth (just like a F1 car uses up tons of gas per mile), but you also get magnificent performance, speed, handling, …

That's the first thing I thought when I read about Munster's sudden reversal of expectations.

Any guy rude enough to squat on a domain name using another person's name (especially someone of some amount of fame), is a sad wipe of a man. Especially when the person comes to you and request to have their name back. I don't care how much work yo…

As incredulous as these commercials are, you have to admit they are a very good effort. Apple's commercials base their argument on software, and Microsoft's commercials base their argument on hardware. Which is sort of a unexpected reversal of role…

Every so often it hits me again how BRILLIANT it was for Apple to launch retail stores! In many ways it was as courageous as it was obvious. And they have hit homeruns over and over again with it. Steve Jobs often cites a quote by Alan Kay: "P…

Please explain to me how a 10" (diagonal) screen could produce a device that is smaller than the Kindle which is 8"x5.5"? At best it it could only be the same size as the Kindle. Perhaps the 10" screens could be also serve as new input device? Inter…

I hope this also signals Front Row getting the same YouTube access that Apple TV has. That would be fabulous!

This needs to go way beyond a pitiful badge of small text. A lot of people think this is getting out of hand, my friends and I even decided to start a Facebook group against this type of thing. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=73370240971 …
