Bringing up Zune's features and marketplace on the first discussion page was an obvious (to me) attempt at trolling. I mean, this is AppleInsider, do you think we CARE what Zune has or does? We've wasted most of three pages of this thread arguin…

I am stumped. The article says it supports any iOS4 iPhone, but then says "front facing camera only." This would limit it to the iPhone 4 only, wouldn't it? I don't understand or see the point of this, if you already have an iPhone 4, as FaceTime w…

What disappoints me the most is the price of the new Mini. I just bought a Mini (early 2009) and I'm glad I did before the price went up. While the speed boost isn't that great a difference between my Mini, the hd space would have been nice. But n…

Anyone have a feel for when the new OS will be posted? Is there a usual time (like Steve always plans stuff on Tuesday, usually)?

What I find amazing is that Apple is finally (after many decades) becoming serious about gaming. Granted, this isn't all the support that some devs would want, but I am glad to see some work to bring games permanently to the iPhone/iPad ecosystem. …

That shatter pattern doesn't look right. It seems more like there was a single impact in the upper right corner, more like a hammer than a drop from some height. This is hinky, and I'm choosing to ignore this claim of theirs.

I can't tell you what went through Schmidt's mind, but I'm guessing it was this: He saw Android as an open-source project that didn't so much steal from the iPhone, but complemented it. I'm sure he felt it was the difference between Linux and OS X.…

Just on a side note, we've certainly come a long ways from a barefoot Steve Jobs asking an applicant if he's ever gotten laid.

Every manufacturer, regardless of what they make, experiences production problems from time to time. Sometimes they're faulty components, sometimes they're QA problems, and in the case of computers sometimes they're just software glitches. There are…

Nowhere in his 6 principles does it say that an ISP cannot limit individuals to a given amount of bandwidth - only that ISPs cannot discriminate based on content or the application being used. So as long as an ISP states up front that with Plan A y…

What "kills" me (pun intended) is that anyone, Dem or Rep., liberal or conservative, would believe and/or repeat anything that Sarah Palin wrote on Facebook. She posted "death panels" and everyone threw up their hands and screamed like a little gir…

So much for the critics that have charged Apple only takes from the FOSS community and doesn't give back. Glad to see that a legitimate company can make money while still benefitting the FOSS community. Not all companies have to be Microsoft to ge…

I thought I had read a rumor that the menu bar was going to be inverted, black with light text this time around, which might match up to the QT modal windows, too. I'm waiting to see the actual UI and what the benchmarks say about performance. I'…
