I don't see what the fuss is about. It's not as if ITV has a reputation to damage. Their heyday was over thirty years ago. Now they are purveyors of reality schlock, dubious talent shows and ageing soaps. They have mismanaged themselves into irrelev…

I find it hard to believe that the best value iMac for the average user is the most expensive and most powerful. Most users, given their modest needs, would be better off getting the base iMac and saving themselves $1000. Anything else is overkill a…

Not sure about this. Isn't the screen resolution a bit on the low side for a supposed flagship device? And a keyboard and touchscreen combined? I mean who is crying out for both? I've nothing against Blackberry. Professional-looking devices. But …

Were the iMacs revised this Spring? I thought they were introduced last October and there has yet to be a refresh. Did I miss something?

Quote: "As you would expect from a company focused on people, we prioritize antenna performance over physical design if they are ever in conflict." That probably explains the Nokia X5 then:

So 98.3 per cent of users have yet to return their iPhones? What is wrong with these people? Don't they know how to replicate the infamous "monkey grip" in a low-signal area without a case and get their signal to drop? It took me seven minutes in…

Smart move by Apple. Buy an iPhone before Sept. 30 and you get a free case thrown in. What are the odds they'll sell even more iPhones over the Summer? People love free stuff. Almost enough to make people rush out and get an iPhone while the offer l…

Smart move to write a letter the day before Apple addresses the issue. Makes the Senator look like Apple are responding to his intervention. Politicians eh? There is no stoop so low when it comes to getting themselves in the news.

What Apple should say: Don't stick your grubby mitts over the antenna. What Apple will probably say: It has come to our attention that in a weak signal area - where previously you might get no signal - you might get a dropped call if you ar…

This article starts off in a state of high excitement about something revolutionary on the way then trails off into some guff about a barcode scanner that tells you the nutritional value of the meal you've just eaten. WTF? Did I really just read thi…

Interesting analysis by an antenna engineer: Quote: Just about every cell phone in current production has the antenna located at the bottom. This insures that the radiating portion of the antenna is furthest from the head. Apple was not the fi…

Nice little machine but dubious value for the price. UK pricing starts at £649 for a measly 2GB Ram and 320 GB hard drive. Once you bump up the specs to a respectable level you might as well get a refurbished iMac or Macbook. Pity. Maybe Apple just …

UK starting price is horrific. £649 base model is way overpriced. Once you spec it up to a reasonable 4GB RAM and bigger hard drive you're into refurbished iMac territory. A Mac Mini at this price makes no sense other than as an upsell to a better s…
