I really don't understand why people get upset by iTunes. You don't need to buy iTunes/iBooks content and can easily add your own. You don't need a computer to run a iPhone or iPad. I rarely sync my phone. I would think that to use a Android phone y…

I hate threads like this. It isn't like RIM, MS, Nokia, and HP/Palm will suddenly vanish and the only smartphones will be Android and iPhone. The game is still young and anything can happen. You really don't need to sync once you've set up your phon…

The difference between now and the 1980s is that Apple has several side revenue streams iTunes/App Store/iAds which help support their main source of revenue which is hardware. Whether or not this can save them from what Google is trying, or seems t…

TBWA\\Chiat\\Day does the ads but PR is done in house. Phill Schiller i'd guess is in charge of that office.

You know, I end up using my iPhone way more than I do my iMac. Editing video is the main task for my iMac or surfing when I need a bigger screen. If and when I get a iPad I would use that instead. I think we all agree it can't fully replace a comput…

I think Schiller said at one point that Apple will and can lower the price to defend the iPad. The experince and how it just works is a huge Apple advantage that can not be copied. Now many people don't like the Apple way, but I think it will win ou…

Last night I tested my 3G at home and did it today from work and got the following results. I work really close to home, but I think my building blocks the 3G. How good is my phone service? Mostly it is pretty good but I do get dropped calls, no con…

According to new leaks from Jobs' employee townhall meeting the next iPhone will be A+ and blow away android. I understand the idea of a placeholder, but leaks are coming out about 3.2 anyway but nothing amazing that wound point to 4.0. I think we'l…

I would if had the extra money but i don't right now. I posted this in another thread but I think there are two mindsets at work here. First, Microsoft/netbooks with the idea that you can scale back the desktop/laptop form factor and still be produ…

The other thing driving a lot of these feelings I think is the overwhelming desire for Apple to make a netbook and make it better than any other one. But they didn't and I think that pisses people off. Like Apple's feelings about Flash perhaps Apple…
