Wow, built in wifi? Who would've thunk it??? Only thing I want to believe about this rumor is the 50" part seeing as nearly every 50" panel produced these days is a plasma and plasma TV's are vastly superior to LED's in terms of picture quality s…

Nintendo's days as a gaming hardware company are numbered, but they still seem to put out great software. I'm not much of a gamer anymore, but I have to imagine that while the Wii-U is the beginning of the end of their console gaming efforts, they w…

I'm happy with Verizon (though will be happier when there's an LTE iPhone) but I definitely average around 1 MB at most if not closer to .5 MB in the metro Detroit area. Interestingly enough, my friends who now have the Sprint iPhone oftentimes have…

$25 a year to have 20,000 of my songs matched as opposed to having to upload over 200 GB's of music is an amazing deal in my book. The 4,000 or so that iTunes Match hasn't been able to Match as of yet are taking their sweet time despite maxing out m…

Also, don't expect Apple to compete with cable companies too much at first. The cable companies still hold too many cards considering they are the providers of the critical internet connections Apple would need to transmit data. Not only that, if ce…

If Apple actually makes a true HDTV that is relatively straightforward in design, I expect ultra-competitive price-points. You're talking about 1080P LED-Backlit LCD screens offered in 40", 46" and 55" sizes most likely. Then you take the guts of an…

And if it makes any pro-union people feel better, I dislike the stock market in general far more than unions and view it as an even bigger problem. Apple is a wonderful example to center on in both discussions though, as it's very clear that App…

It's refreshing to read that many people recognize that unions have become more of a problem than anything these days. Living in Detroit, it often seems like everyone is in a union so you don't get a lot of objective discussion of the strengths and …
