I sure hope Apple does not move to an iris scanner. That will make the user experience worse – not better. Touch ID works great and it's SEAMLESS, it unlocks pretty much instantly as we wake up our device. It's secure, dead easy and we needn't tak…

"If there's one thing that I want on the back of my gorgeous iPhone 6, it's a gigantic square wart". – Said no one ever. This does seem like an April fools joke. The design makes no sense. If the iPhone is sitting on it's back on the desk and I pr…

How can anyone take this guy seriously? Microsoft's new Surface and laptops look pretty decent but I have no interest. How well they work, How well they actually hold up and how well they sell remains to be seen. I don't see them pulling customers…

I dub this the "Jetson's Campus". Very nice!

At the end of the day, the book or movie is supposed to be a biography. A good biography needs to show all parts of Steve – warts and all. That is what I expect. If it goes too far one way or the other then it's just not a good biography. Those cl…

While Steve may not have technically been "fired", it seems "forced out" would be a pretty accurate description in my opinion. As far as Woz's comments go, I have no reason to not take him at his word. I've heard some say that Woz is just jealous…

So anyone who uses a case on their iPhone (nearly everybody) will be screwed if this sees the light of day.

I easily get through the day on a single charge too. Although I did wake up to a phone that only had a charge of 37% this morning. I had a small wad of pocket lint in my lighting connecter port and never had a good connection on my clock radio dock.…

My sister-in-law picked up three Samsung Galaxy S4 phones a year and a half ago at the local Costco because they were practically giving them away. By her own admission, cost was the ONLY factor. Two of the three are presently broken and off for rep…

Companies like Google and Facebook don't like personal privacy – their business model depends on it. Actually companies like Google and Facebook don't like personal privacy unless it's theirs, then privacy is okay.

I lock my doors at night because it's my wish that strangers not wander through my home. Unethical people who really want to go through my stuff anyway, just come in through the window, regardless of my wishes.

I want nothing to do with this. In the eyes of Google, we are not their customer, we are their product. Apple's priority is not mining our personal data, their data-driven services are designed to support the devices and services that they sell. A…

I'm still not convinced that smart watches are the next big thing. Wasn't it the analysts that decided smart watches were the next big thing? Seriously? Analysts can't even manage their own business let alone dictating what the "next big thing in te…

I hate Samsung, but of course that's what they are going to do? This isn't news. That's what any company would do. You aren't going to point out your products faults. Oddly no mention of their fingerprint scanner? That's really strange... Possibly …
