"Additionally, Microsoft just skates to where the puck is." I stopped reading there. No chance of mistaking this infantile bilge for actual tech journalism, is there?

So there's no street view (which, yes, IS very useful), and judging by the pre-release imagery at least, the bread-and-butter 2D maps are nowhere near as detailed as the Google versions. But hey, who actually needs to navigate anywhere when …

About time. The Facebook app is slow, clunky and unreliable - amazing for such a large company where such a high proportion of users access the service via smartphones. They urgently need some Apple-inspired UI advice.

Getting a 100 error followed by 'item temporarily unavailable' here in the UK.

That's the last time I buy an Apple product, then! ... oh, wait. No it isn't. Like 99.9% of consumers, this will have no effect on my purchasing decisions. The sleeker hardware which it makes possible might, though...

It happens occasionally, whether to iPhones, Android phones or any other type of phone... lithium-based batteries always have risks.

Before adding more stock apps which I probably won't use, I wish Apple would give the option to hide them from the home screen without jailbreaking. It's bad enough being stuck with that 'Stocks' app which I've never seen anybody use.

Lack of FaceTime over 3G on iP4 is either a pure commercial move, or a way of limiting network traffic to suit the carriers. It's unlikely to be for technical reasons - FaceTime works fine over 3G on a jailbroken iP4 with the appropriate ha…

I don't get why people who don't use Facebook, Twitter, etc. have this strange preoccupation with running them down. If you don't want to use them, then don't - but accept that other people do, and that you're not an authority on how other people …
