It is very good news that Microsoft has finally decided to enter the 21st Century because perhaps it will start to convince the dinosaurs who control the IT departments of so many corporations that real people actually want computing devices like th…

When it is all boiled down we see the farcical legal system that has been created to protect the 'interests' of corporations, rather than the interests of inventors and the consumers of technology products. So don't blame Apple for screwing Samsun…

Quote: I would believe that more if they didn't make 40% Gross Margin on most of their products. I wonder whether Apple's competitors would be able to sell anything at all if Apple's margins were as low as theirs?

Apples response to the Surface is already on the market - it is called the Mac Book Air! And has Bill twigged to the fact that keyboard attachments for the iPad have also been around for years? So who needs to catch up with who?

What really concerns me is if Amazon's attempt to protect its wholesale model of selling existing eBooks succeeds, will it mean that Apple's agency model for selling new eBooks and software be declared illegal as well. This would be an absolute tr…

The ACCC argument against Apple is just plain silly, just as the DoJ argument against Apple is silly. How is the manufacturer of a highly desirable global wireless product supposed to advertise its products when the control of the construction o…

I have two concerns about all this. First, why should retailers be allowed to compete with each other on price when they add absolutely zero value to the product created by the author of an eBook? Second, if the DoJ (and Amazon) are successful in th…

Maybe the ACCC should follow up with action against any Australian mobile network providers who claim they offer a '4G mobile' service when they actually don't, or only in a very limited geographical area. And perhaps Telstra needs to explain wh…

Isn't it a fact that the concept of '4G' is so poorly defined at the moment, and that mobile service operators are so poorly regulated globally, that any global device manufacturer is on a hiding to nothing when they claim to have a '4G device'? …

Oh, what a good question! It is the question that should be asked of the CEOs of the vast majority of large mulinational corporations who still insist on manufacturing and selling cheap and crappy products in their never-ending race to the botto…

Maybe Microsoft's so-called 'R&D' department now have enough iPhones, iPads and Macs to start their reverse engineering work. :-)
