I wouldn't be surprised if the iPad ends up with a greater percentage of the tablet market than the iPod does of the PMP market. Like the iPod, it's not a necessity whereas phones are, so people won't settle for cheap knockoffs just because they hav…

The funny thing about this is that I'm sure that Motorola, HTC, and the other manufacturers of phones don't care one bit about this. Motorola, for example, is more interested in the number of phones Motorola sells! In fact, they might even prefer no…

Are the people who always bring up the Mac vs. Windows history just completely oblivious to that somewhat successful Apple device called the iPod (which, according to their logic, should have been crushed by Microsoft and its entourage who produced …

Wow. Fanboys are still treating replaceable batteries as some sort of killer feature? Even though hardly anybody would ever be carrying around an extra battery unless their phone's battery was completely awful? Even though there are cases out there …

What kind of moron thinks any company wouldn't want to make as much money as possible? "I want an iPad!" "No! Your money is worthless! It's media attention I want!" "Yeah, but you'll get media attention anyway. You're Apple!" "I don't care! I do…
