What do you mean how they react to Android? Is Android doing something new tomorrow that they haven't been doing for the past few years? So far Apple hasn't had to react to Google in this regard and I haven't seen anything convincing me tha

Came here to say this. If Gizmodo truly burned this guy then yes, they are way out of line, but in this case it seems pretty obvious to me that Apple knew who lost their phone a week ago when this all started. The proof is in the first para

I actually mentioned in a reply above that the iPad will never be a good machine for development. Honestly, life is too short, I'm not going to sacrifice quality because of a fear that at any moment my bag may be stolen. It's also pretty ea

Down voted for providing a use case where the iPad is actually enjoyable? Nice!

I have a Macbook Pro, I just don't like lugging it around on trips when it's overkill (the sucker is 5 - 6 pounds easily). A netbook? I hope that's a joke. Why would I want a cheaply built, underpowered (I'll bet the iPad out performs most

Same, and when I hooked up a bluetooth keyboard for the first time and propped it up like a regular screen I type at 100% speed. The Apple bluetooth keyboard and this thing are almost the same size, so on trips I'll be able to answer long e

Could you really name a touch enabled Tablet to me without searching? I know I couldn't name one. There is also that nifty little stat about Apple being the worlds largest Tablet seller after their first day, so when it really comes down to

Am I the only one starting to see a pattern here? Why is Google suddenly following in Apple's footsteps after every new product?

I'd also like to clarify that I don't think iAd is even a competitor to The Deck or Fusion. Those two services have their niche carved out and their partners are VERY happy with their relationships. I don't think either of them are going an

I actually specifically mention The Deck in the article and that it's very similar. The difference? This is about to be in front of everyone who uses free apps on the app store (assuming iAd adoption is good). That's a lot of people. Essent

Girlfriend reaction: "Wasn't this in Microsoft Word 10 years ago? It had a cute dog." Take that for what you may. Cool concept, but I don't think this is something I'd ever pay for. GetSat or Uservoice could kill this in one update. There i

Way too much cynicism in this thread! I thought that was a great way to put on hold a blog I've always enjoyed reading over the last few years. Congrats and best of luck, Alex.

It's also curious that the iPad application RFS was released 3 days ago and presented an extremely tight deadline on applying with that in mind. Now there is plenty of time to apply if you've got the iPad in mind for YComb.

I actually completely agree with your definition of innovation and that's exactly how I think about it. What I would ask you is, how have you guys innovated with your definition in mind? When I said I saw no innovation I meant that I litera

I've got a few issues: 1. It's Windows only. I do not personally use Windows nor do I have a single peer developer, designer, or project manager (the ones who would primarily be using this for mockups) who uses Windows. It's all Mac in the

Are people here really suggesting we replace a mouse driven hover state on traditional computers with a touch driven tap and hold on touch screen devices? How does that make one lick of sense? What do you do while you're tapping and holding

Flash has not supported multitouch until the latest release, meaning no existing flash content was developed with that in mind. Nice logical fallacy though!

I'd also like to point out that this thread has 90+ comments now and all you had to do was ask. The same concept can be applied to pretty much anything, HN is not the only generous group out there.

This advice is simply from personal experience and doesn't come from a book or article posted elsewhere: There is a reason human beings gravitate towards one another. We are not meant to live, work, or play alone (though some people are bet

This part in particular really stuck out for me as it's a point I've been making (in lesser words) for quite some time when it comes to why I am an atheist: "For instance, the size of the universe is very impressive, with us on a tiny parti

When there is a device like this that I can walk into a store and play with before buying as well as have access to thousands of quality applications that make my life easier or more fun then I'll consider it a competitor to the iPad. Until

Regardless of this being light on the details it's the responsibility of the web community to keep this potential issue in the spotlight until Adobe decides they need to respond and clarify their intentions.

I'm actually quite shocked people are saying the iPad isn't affordable. This is probably the most affordable overly hyped product Apple has ever released. I was expecting $1,000 just like Steve Jobs said and was blown away when it was as lo
