Apple yanking features and telling its customers to suck it is nothing new. But Apple admitting the omissions and deciding to return the functionality? This is very new indeed.

You are an educated and successful person in a wealthy country. You have options. The people who stand in a factory all day assembling the phone you use do not. It is very one sided. Your personal life experiences do not apply in Chinese factorie…

60 hours a week is a brutal week, especially if you work in a factory. Some focus on the fact that the low prices we pay for a vast array of the products we buy is thanks to the absurdly low wages these workers receive for these brutal schedules. …

Thursday afternoon, servers over capacity. Apple's iCloud launch is going just as well as its MobileMe launch. Ok, minus the mass-data-loss but there's still time. This company is so out of its depth it's embarrassing.

It's baffling... what is the benefit of secretly storing location info for Apple? With legions of hackers out there dissecting their hardware and software, it was only a matter of time before someone discovered this, with the inevitable fallout bei…

And this is partly why Android phones are trouncing Apple.

Yeah, good solution. Clip this on it'll work better.

Yeah, the headline should be ios 4 delayed for iPad till late November. That is completely bogus. There's no technical reason it can't be made available for iPad basically right away. Waiting till almost 2011 for features that are sorely lack…

It's not about whether the display lives up to expectations, it's about whether it matches the claims. When Apple ventures into this quasi-scientific data realm, they're setting themselves up for trouble. This is precisely what scientists do, an…

Reminds me of when the CANSPAM act appeared and "direct marketers" went crazy. I remember one said basically that consumers would suffer by not knowing about great offers. This is equally as slimy in that this guy is in a twist that he can't sec…

How painful could it be to convert videos to HTML5? It's not like it takes thousands of people adjusting every frame. It's a process that can be automated and left to run over the weekend basically. Sure, I get that it's not the same as me co…

Would it kill this company to go on record with something someday? Has apple 'officially' admitted to working on a tablet-computing device yet?
