  • Matte black iPhone 7 owners complain to Apple about chipping paint finish

    I rock my Jet Black with 4Corners Skulls...looks awesome.  The finish is perfect.

  • Nintendo's 'Fire Emblem: Heroes' grosses $2.9M in first-day sales

    This game is really good and feels great on iOS. Nintendo and Apple are both sitting on the world's largest goldmine. If they can port the classics to be playable on iOS along with new content featuring the classic characters they will dominate the platform. The world will benefit from having the highest quality of games for mobile. I am very happy right now.

  • Following Mario's mobile success, Nintendo plans to release 2-3 new iPhone games each year...

    I would pay $10 for each classic port. Might be steep but think of how most people spend money on lesser of things. I do like the idea of a subscription to play any of the classics also...$10 a month would be a steal for someone who appreciates gaming.

    Pretty powerful stuff.  It is just crazy to think that equal rights did not exist at one point.  I know some people / companies are still struggling with this but for the most part a significant part of the world has moved forward in a proper way.
    And its crazy that equal rights still don't exist at THIS  point. We've got to stay hungry and get smarter. We seem to be falling behind again . . .


    It is ignorant to think that equal rights fully exists...it is equally ignorant to think that it does not exist.  Even thought the world has not fully embraced this concept there are many of us who have.  This is individuals and also companies and communities.

    Saturated market maybe?
    I think so. Too many good companies out there to buy drones that were significantly better. Maybe a valuable lesson learned for ambitious entrepreneurs. Know your market. I thought the product was promising but understand how this happened.
    It has nothing to do with the market saturation. They already sold $34 million worth of non-existing products. They just cannot manufacture them cost-effectively/underestimated the production cost.
    That is 68,000 units.  This is out of 1 million drones sold just over the holiday season in the US.  Not globally.  So I appreciate your strong quick dismissal of my statement but market saturation cannot be overlooked.  Yes they could have underestimated production costs and this could have contributed to the issue but to overlook the competitive pressures is wrong.
