Try Rackspace Cloud Servers (Rackspace owns Slicehost too). Pretty much the same configs as slicehost except no bundled bandwidth so you only pay $11 a month. No affiliation to them but I do have VPSs at both (slicehost for things that requ

"Why the author seems to think that apps in the iTunes store are better than apps in other app stores is beyond me. There may be more apps in the iTunes store, but I doubt they have higher quality." Your language makes it sound like you don

Same here, and I was even considering it more when the 3G equipped iPod Touch cases leaked. Though I do notice the model in the FCC pics doesn't have a hole for the camera, I am sure that can be fixed (if not by the manufacturer, I have a

Apple isn't going to use the kill switch on this, just like they didn't on the last tethering app. They simply remove the apps from the store much like they've removed other apps from the store that violated a policy (the commodore emulato

Making the Kindle app available on a multitude of devices (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, etc.) was a very smart move by Amazon. If someone has a kindle now, it is absolutely no problem for them to get an iPad or other device and continue rea

I thought I would throw this out there because I am sure someone here knows this. The article said Qualcomm is working with Apple to make a chip that would allow the iPhone to operate on both AT&T and Verizon networks. Does that mean t

Do you have any references that led you to believe an N2 would continue to be vanilla and open? I am interested in a vanilla, open device. I don't want to have to root my phone.

I agree that Apple has been the darling of the media for a while, but I don't know if I would call this the same kind of scrutiny other corps put up with; this is bordering on irrational (if not there already).

This is like equating the use of a wind-tunnel in airplane design to not 'real-world' use. Should all airplanes be tested by being built and then just taken for a flight?

The EVO has the problem too. I have to go somewhere with a lower signal like a parking garage, but I can do it by covering the antenna just like the EVO manual says not to do (page 169): http://www.scribd.com/doc/32516924/Sprint-HTC-EVO-U

I felt the same way about Consumer Reports until they kept releasing new 'reports' about things that generally looked like link-bait to me. They did their whole initial review of the unit without noticing the problem, i.e. it worked as the

What would it take to convince you that it isn't a "Big 'oops'"? [Serious question] I just checked my EVO manual and it specifically says where not to touch the phone (upper left). The difference seems to be that people learned where not t

Probably because the posts weren't related to tech support or there were already threads or a thread about the drive. I don't really get the mentality. The users know what they are posting isn't tech support but do it anyway. You see the

Netbooks have been around long enough now that if they worked in this situation, they would have been adopted already. Think clip board, not laptop. The standing-up use is essential. He said the typing worked just fine. Add the 12+ hour
