Depends on how good the software is. I think the ecosystem will continue to be a negative on Android tablets for quite some time. Hardware matters a lot less (aside from the screen) on tablets than it did during the PC wars.

I think that Apple's maps will kind of suck at first. I have not seen a better map than google's from anyone, not Yahoo, not Msosft, not Nokia, not Open maps. Nobody matches the searchability, the transit directions, the street view, and most im…

no real need for it. I think the current size is pretty close to ideal, though making it a bit wider would make for a better movie watching experience. The only reason to release a smaller version would be to compete on price with Amazon, say 7 in…

Samsung does not make the os, so I would not step on googles toes and mess with google's music and content business unless they want to lose android early access to HTC.

Nerdgasm, that's all I gotta say.

Why not build one in Chicago or Texas. That way you can have low latency on either coast and even less in Midwest. We have plenty of flat land to build it and a decent priced electricity. In the case of Chicago you can cover canada with low latency …

Man I wish I did not take that media analysis class in college. Now I think too much about what ads try to say and who they are trying to appeal and on what basis than actually the content of the ad itself. Speaking of analyzing ads - its well…

So why not just use the regular thunderbolt port for docking? If intel wants thunderbolt to succeed they have to make it mass market to use economies of scale to drive down the price and up the adoption even more. So far both USB 3.0 and thunderbol…

Going with next was the best decision apple of the time made. It turned out to be quite a flexible platform for both desktop, phone and even tablet os. I wonder if they could have scaled beos the same way.

If adobe made great mobile versions of flash that worked flawlessly and consumed little to no power , apple would have used them. The truth is, flash on desktop still eats more battery power than watching a quicktime h/264 podcast from itunes, wich…

Was a very smooth and enjoyable experience, just like the beta.

Score! Finally all sites will be forced to take off the idiotic flash wrapper off their native h.264 encoded videos. Restaurants are next - get rid of flash sites if you want customers.

France has its Polish plumber, Australia has a Polish tablet bootlegger. I gotta say shipping from asia is a smart idea, but they should have kept it on the DL, and not challenged apple in such direct way.
