Friend of mine bought a "Rolex" watch in the Philippines. Somebody asked him if it was real. He replied, "If it isn't, I got ripped off for twenty bucks!"

They are caught up, eh? Time to introduce the iPhone 6S.

This watch has "FAIL" written all over it. Expensive, doesn't do much of anything more than an iPhone (which you have to have with it to use many of the features), not waterproof, and now advertising. If you paid me enough, I might take one and keep…

Unfortunately, it is an affectation common in some circles to say that that the US is responsible for every ill that has befallen mankind since the dawn of time. People who suffer from this mental affliction cannot be reasoned with. They assume that…

This thread is proof that the Internet will not end ignorance. Instead, it just spreads conspiracy theories faster. The fact is that North Korea's GDP is about the same as Sony's income. But North Korea's "workers' paradise" requires 30 million sl…

Uh, they could achieve the same thing by weighting the side they want it to land on. No motor, no computers, etc. Perhaps next they could try a little parachute that deploys whenever the phone is dropped. Quote: Originally Posted by muppetry …

This is exactly the sort of corporate backbiting that has prevented widespread adoption of electronic payment systems in the past. Very well. I will never use CurrentC and will try to avoid any other system that tracks my personal information.

Next up: Uri Geller bending iPhones.

Battery life: Too short. Forget about those apps that monitor your sleep quality; your watch will be recharging. Compatibility: Requires an iPhone 5 or 6 to work. Since you have to have an iPhone with you all the time and the only thing additional …

Bose is right, though. Their noise canceling technology is the best in the industry. I first saw it in their aviation headsets many years ago. I ended up choosing Lightspeed, though, for overall sound quality. And, well, Lightspeed was cheaper, prim…

Does anyone else find it ironic that the state media of a totalitarian country worries about 'privacy?'

Remember when everyone bragged about how small their phone was?

A billion here. A billion there. Pretty soon you're talking about real money.

Meanwhile, bad actors like Amazon continue to patent prior art. Amazon's latest stunt? Patenting photographs of people and objects with a white background. Apparently no one had ever thought of it before. Who knew?
