I agree that Apple's default minimum is too small given the size of storage on today's devices and the the fact that, in addition to photos and backups, they've opened iCloud storage to all of your other apps. I'd also love to be able to share iClo…

Three requests: 1) Please, a universal version! Soonest. 2) Give us the option to exclude push notifications about the on-going legal wranglings. I'm so sick of them I could scream! 3) Paid, ad free version.

I'm curious about everyone's opinion on the following... I currently have an iPad 1 and am waiting on an iPhone 4S. I've currently got an iPhone 4 which will go to my wife (not especially tech savvy so she doesn't care...). I'm looking for two th…

This just proves all the doom and gloom tech prophets right...abject failure! Only 4 million sold in the first 72 hours! What a disaster. Fire Tim Cook immediately and bring back Gil Amelio. I'm selling all my 10,000 shares of Apple immediately and …

Maybe we should start a "spotters" club, similar to bird or aircraft watchers. We could report when we spot an elusive touchpad in the wild. Report the usage habits of the wild "Tab". Claim glory by spotting the first wild Win8 tablet! (Personally, …

I live in an upper middle class area in SE Virginia. I see a lot of tablets in use. I have yet to see a single non-iPad. As an iPad user myself, I'm fairly sensitive to what others might be carrying, particularly since I'm curious to see how the oth…

Retina display, as Apple is using it, is a marketing term. It is intended to convey the idea that the resolution is so great that you can no longer see the pixels...and therefore everything looks sharper and/or, images contain a lot more "definable"…

This is just another example, in a long and continuing series, of Google tools designed to mine personal data from you (with your explicit but frequently underinformed permission) so that they can add to the personal profile they keep on you. Who yo…

I don't think this matters much to Apple except for the perception it creates. As I see it... 1. More people are buying smart phones today than feature phones. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere recently that smart phones are now the majority of…

All out of the goodness of their little black hearts... The idea is fine although limited in capability because it all relies on a limited bandwidth limited data capacity pipe. The question is, are you willing to sell your soul to google (whether…

For all Google's apparent benevolence, they are only after 1 thing...everything there is to know about you...so that they can push advertising and either directly or indirectly sell your personal information. Period. Every little app and/or tool …

I tried this sale last Sunday. I was looking for 2 32 Gb models. Long story short, there were ZERO in the Hampton Roads, VA area and virtually no 16 Gbs either. Radio Slack never had any stock to sell in the first place. And from what I was told, th…

I've been a Consumer Reports subscriber for decades but I'd have to agree that they seem to have a bias against Apple. My suspicion is that their staff are all Windows geeks so they seem to give praise grudgingly on just about anything Apple does. T…
