I find Lion's new icons to have too little contrast. Sometimes it's difficult on the eyes.

I have read the tea leave... my vision is clearing now... I see an iPhone and there's a number on it, sounds like 4s, no 5. That's it 5 and it's linked to June, no, September, maybe it's October, wait, it's September. The screen will have a higher r…

The best camera is the one that you have with you. You always almost have your cell phone with you, so that's what you're going to use for ad hoc photographs. I don't agree that the iPhone is too slim for a zoom lens. There are some proof of concept…

Leave it to the "analyst" to suggest that Apple completely screw up the genius bar by using the Best Buy model. Best Buy is despised for its poor business practices and their "Geek Squad" has a mediocre reputation. This guy doesn't begin to understa…

I agree that the whole thing is a bit silly. Aside from some cosmetic differences, every tablet on the planet looks like an iPad. How many ways can you make a framed skinny rectangle? Apple should have been more specific in their original complaint …

The word to use is deprecating, not depreciating.

There is one big thing preventing iPad sales from overwhelming PC sales: You need a PC in order to sync an iPad (or an iPhone). I would love to get an iPhone and/or an iPad for my mother, but she does not have or want a computer. If Apple turns thes…

Dear Conde, I paid $10 for a print subscription to Wired and you threw in a free tee shirt. Wouldn't you be better off charging me the same rate for an electronic subscription. Heck, I'll be a little generous, since you have to pay Apple 30%. Mak…

I haven't read any reviews of WebOS, but I'm curious about how it stacks up. I imagine that any serious Honeycomb bugs will be fixed as quickly as possible. I'm not saying that I would never switch, but I'm pretty much tied to the iPad at this point…

I think they are wrong about there not being a market for a smaller phone. I wouldn't be for me, but I think that Apple would sell a ton of iPhone Lites that didn't require a data plan. People would use them for phone calls, texting, photos, music, …

Oh, IDC, you really had me going there, but then I realized that you released your April 1st release three days early.

Steve Jobs has stated that Apple products sell for about the same price in all countries. In America, prices are quoted without sales tax. These European prices are quoted including the VAT. You would have to know the VAT (it varies from approx. 15%…

Soneira is talking out of his ass. Software tricks like anti-aliasing are used to make up for a lack of sufficient resolution to display text clearly at all sizes. I, for one, am looking forward to the day that the iPad has a razor sharp display lik…

How nice that Apple has added Internet content that they would earn money from. Where's Pandora. I use it fairly frequently and want it on my ATV.

You'll never have to buy a 3G iPad again -- if you want GPS and Apple includes GPS with the WiFi model. Otherwise, it will cost you.

First of all, when I read phrases like "digital humanism," I know that Samsung is blowing smoke out of their asses. What a totally meaningless phrase. The whole concept of a digital hub is only partially meaningful. Your typical modern home theater …
