Ok... but H.264 can never be supported on every browser, because smaller companies can't afford it. OGG THeora was built to fail as they had to use less efficient algorithms to maneuver around patents. VP8 may not be as good as a codec as H.264 but …

I think this has more to do with the fact that HTML 5 has yet to come up with even a recommended list of video codecs for Browsers to support. I.E., the biggest browser doesn't support any HTML 5 video yet. And Firefox, the second largest, only supp…

Of course they are going to say their not worried, but I think they really are NOT worried. Apple can still make considerable profit even if their market share drops because the smartphone market is growing very fast, the iPhone platform is extremel…

I'm not arguing that what the guy did wasn't illegal, but this situation is taken completely out of proportion here. Why is a guy's apartment being raided over a lost phone? Just because this phone is a company secret doesn't warn't such harsh react…

I though the iPad deal with AT&T binded them another 2 years? IMO AT&T pretty much has nothing with out the iPhone, I'm sure they are desperate to keep it exclusive.

Lol why would he go to Jail? Its only buying stolen property, plus he probably won't get charged because 1) the phone was left on the ground, it was found, not stolen and 2) whoever found it called Apple and they said they didn't want it, what was h…
