I think Camillo is trying to point out that the UK is not a republic (banana or otherwise) but a Constitutional Monarchy.

I found myself doing the same thing. I find "labels on the left" to be a more natural pattern.

The judge could be taking quite a bit of heat from Samsung… Surely Apple's lawyer division (and it must be a division by now) went through that judgment with a fine tooth comb before posting the statement. I wonder if the judge could have a

No court judgment ever said it had to be an apology. It was supposed to "to dispel commercial uncertainty". Looks as if Apple have exploited a loophole by adding to the judgment instead of simply posting it.

They would have a significant financial advantage over Spotify, who pay a large sum to licence the music they carry. Weren't they also yanked from the Google Play store?

There's nothing to prevent it, but none of the built in apps handle such file types. There is plenty of support via third party apps.

This is very nice, but does it breach Google's Ts&Cs with regard to business asset tracking? I only ask because I wanted to make something similar (though not India or trains) https://developers.google.com/maps/terms section 10.2b(iii

The iPad, at least, has a slide switch on the side which allows you to hold the screen in either orientation.

I think it'd be far quicker & cheaper to license street view data from Google, even if they start collecting their own in the background. Google have spent many years perfecting the collection & analysis of the data, Maps needs fixi

The slide switch is for muting audio. The do not disturb mode allows you to automatically silence notifications (both audibly and visually) during the night, though you can also whitelist your favourite phone numbers if you wish.

From the release notes: "Apps that offer routing information, such as turn-by-turn navigation services, can now register as a routing app and make those services available to the entire system" Makes me hope a 3rd party transit app will be

Apple are allowing apps, in iOS6, to declare that they can provide routing info so I don't thin it'll be too long before these gaps close themselves. http://appleinsider.com/articles/12/06/13/apple_hands_off_tr...

It's a nice list, though I'd use blitz.io rather than loadimpact when it comes to load testing (mainly due to it's handy API)

It'll be interesting to see the comparison once Geekbench has been compiled to support armv7s instructions.

Including "turn over to mute" feels like they were grasping at straws by the end of the list.

“Our apps have been taken down, so there is no way to link to them unfortunately.” Are you saying none of these apps have promotional websites?

by dan1234 14y ago
I wouldn't be too concerned on the app front. The situation was the same when the iPhone first got its retina display but these days most apps are optimised for it. The web side of things is a different story. AFAIK, there isn't even a nice

Is it not more that Nokia and HTC users are making the jump to Samsung? They'd get a superior model (and there are many Samsung models around at various price brackets) and get to keep their apps. Does anyone have any Android vs iOS vs WP7

4 - Samsung are taking market share from other Android vendors as well as Apple. 5 - Samsung have many more models than Apple most of which are much cheaper and available on contract a minimal cost to the end user.

Well Mountain Lion was released as a new 'appp' rather than an update to the Lion app, so it seems Apple want people to release their major updates as new releases. I wouldn't be surprised if they continue to update the iLife products such

I do type a lot more square brackets in ObjC than any other language, but I find that I type a lot more generally due to the increased length of many method names in ObjC (or I would do if autocomplete didn't do it for me). (Simple) Example
