Oh my God! No no no, this is INCREDIBLE! For years, decades even, many have grown despondent at the lack of genuine technical and design innovation from Cupertino. But this headline and crotch grabbing achievement in precision engineering and ergo…

Actually, unless they make it thicker, anything larger than about 15" in the MBA form factor will be very fragile, or at least, subject to warping unless made of a very tough material. Chances are, the new MB Pros will feature a much higher …

"but will not be a star seller." they sold a million in first few weeks. I sold our iPad 2 and am getting a Note, it is a superb device.

...because I am not yet in the need for anything better and waiting for the '5'. I bought the 1G second hand last year, and yes, running iOS 3X it is a tad slow at some operations, but no matter how many Android handsets I try (each of which is vers…

Well, I was pretty young back then so I cannot comment on what IBM were up to. Interested to learn more about what you say/claim. Note that Apple are also exceptionally controlling today. I have used and do use their products since 1990 and th…

True enemies need to be flawed or evil, and IBM were not and are not. Yes, they appear boring, however not in reality: 1. Their products are exceptionally reliable - hence you see pre Lenovo Think Pads in use still today. In fact, I would happily…

Please see the whole Samsung Galaxy Note ecosystem of peripherals available at Clove.co.uk. Much better thought out than Apple's iOS device system, as is the superb inductive dock offered with the sadly defunct Palm/HP WebOS TouchPad. Apple shoul…

Chances are, most people know that 'stuff' is bad for them - geeks included, but we are so wound up in our lives and dependent on it all, we cannot 'escape'. On a more optimistic front, I think a move towards sustainable 'life friendly' manufacturin…

Siri only currently requires Apple's servers because it's providing the sort of information that is real time, such as weather or other. However, in controlling a TV, it will be mainly used for choosing channels & content, and making adjustments…

It is that attitude which is why the West is in the mess it is. Liberal thinking that says a) Employ people, even if you do not need or cannot afford them. b) Loan people money for items or property they havn't a hope in hell of repaying. Furthe…

The build quality, perceived weight and industrial design of the MBA blow this thing out of the water, not to mention the whole OS X experience. No wonder non Apple vendors are failing to dent MBA sales. Just today, I was in an Apple dealer he…

I don't think we'll talk to the TV itself, but to our iOS device(s) that will then command the 'TV' what to do. This would also allow several people to control one device. Parent could request a show is downloaded in the background (from anywhere…

...but to actually almost commit to purchasing is very difference - prior to release of the spec. I also plan to get an iPhone 5 IF it is up to snatch. But if it isn't the ONLY phone out there that is innovative and powerful enough to attract my …

I have commented on this sort of survey before, but it proves once again that SOME people will purely buy on brand alone, without knowing anything about the product. If the actual specs for the iPhone 5 had been released by Apple, then this would be…

Am an Apple fan, but anyone who pre-orders a product of any type without knowing the specification is acting on blind faith. Of course, iPhone 5 will be hot, but what if there are competitors with a better feature set? (IE, new phones from Samsung, …

As are you. And I am not off topic, I was replying to someone else. As I said, Apple are not innovating fast enough. Do not compare 'innovation' to 'style'. BTW, I'm typing this on a MacBook Pro, and also own an iPad 2 and an iPhone 1G. Bu…

I'm not, the Samsung Galaxy Note has a 5.3" display, and having used a 5" Dell Streak, that screen size is almost the ideal. Perfect for reading eBooks, fits in the pocket, allows you to share content in the same way the iPad makes possible, easier …

Although an Apple user myself, I am surprised that Apple fan bois, as in those will be buy Apple simply because it is Apple, tend to stick their heads in the sand. This week, Samsung launched what is without any doubt the most useful and imaginat…
