Does this also include detecting if you connect devices that haven't licensed Apple's iPod connector, or if you've jailbroken the device ever?

overcharging compared to what? Here in the US, the cost of the iPhone is sold at pretty much the same price (after subsidy) as the Palm Pre and similar RIM devices. And if anything, they've driven the price down for all other phones because the …

And don't forget, the day after iPhone OS 3.0 was released to the public, MILLIONS of iPhones upgraded to it, so developers immediately could use the latest API's and know they could sell their 3.0-specific apps (if they didn't want to support the o…

Now they have to kick the Intuit CEO off Apple's board... Really, after the repeatedly buggy, feature incomplete apps they've released in the past, now their "rewrite" of it for the Mac has 2 whole developers on it (as part of a team of 5).

From what I can tell, AT&T will also lose long distance fee's, which is a huge deal to them. It sounds like GV lets you call a local number (so you'll pay for roaming), but then it goes from analog to digital using Google's services. Like SMS,…

It certainly is easy to see why the labels want this. It's much easier to make loads more profit if you can sell 8 songs of crap along with 2 good songs. Particularly if you only have to advertise 1 or 2 of the 10 songs. It's WAY more expensive f…

Nobody else outsources manufacturing to China. Simply put, only a fraction of the population could afford most anything produced in China if they had the same standard of living, human rights, etc... that we have here. If they did, the cost of p…

Hasn't resulted in price going down for data...in fact, AT&T raised the price last year. Hasn't resulted in price going down for text messages. Hasn't resulted in price going down for voice. People who purchased their iPhone 2 years ago, who …

Tag line for Intuit's Mac products: Half the features for twice the price. And forget about bank support, because what bank would be willing to pay Intuit double their yearly fee's just to get an extra 5% or so customers. Intuit seems to be d…

and up the prices on all his songs to $1.29... From a quick look, only his hits look to be $1.29... and bizarrely, the long, 6 minute version of Billie Jean is $.99, while all the short 4 minute versions are $1.29... weird.

It always seems bizarre to me that Apple updates their 'school' line (namely iMac's) in late September or October. To me, it seems to make more sense to do it late August/early September, you know, when people are buying things for school.

It's funny that the home screen picture clearly shows a basic UI mistake, that the default items are clipped both along the right and along the bottom...

Microsoft: our operating system is loaded onto cheap computers.
