Can you do user agent spoofing on an iPad? Because iPad browser is perfectly capable of viewing desktop websites except those with Flash.

Wouldn't it be possible to just use ALSA with software mixing? Because ALSA has very low delay as far as I know.

No, I definitely wasn't trying to imply anything like that about any iPhone user. I'm sure you are a power user and you regularly browse the web with your iPhone. But this doesn't mean you wouldn't have a better browsing experience with a 1

A power user is a user who regularly browses the web. Browsing the web on a 4.65-inch 1280x720 screen is significantly better than browsing the web on a 3.5-inch 960x640 screen. Reply to your edit: The fact that Android phones have low pixe

Do you really think the best selling Android phones must be those looking closest to the iPhone? Maybe Samsung became the most successful Android vendor by making the best Android phones?

Sorry, I should have made the context clearer. They never went back to the issue later. They were discussing whether a specific Apple patent should be invalidated because of the prior art. They were sick of dicussing it, so they just moved

Just to remove all doubts about whether the jury was smoking crack or not, this phone is found to be infringing the iPhone's design patents: http://androidspin.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/samsung-ga...

Samsung's success should not be attributed to the fact that they copied iPhone and iOS design to some extent. Samsung makes great hardware and they simply made the best Android phones. They benefited from the strength of Google/Android ecos

Yes. Not only Nexus S was found to be at fault, Apple is also going after the Galaxy Nexus. Icaza disappointed me because when people started pointing these out in the comments, he deleted them and turned off commenting to the post.

I don't exactly know what the patent is. But it was clarified by Samsung attorney in the trial that you do not infringe Apple patents by having one finger scrolling and pinch to zoom. So it is possible to make a modern smartphone.

Apple doesn't have a patent for one finger scrolling or pinch zooming. If the claim you are talking about is one finger scrolling, having that feature is not enough to violate the whole patent. The patent in question is about a method to de

The case also covers some extremely technical patents.

I would argue this song is terrible for this test. I usually can instantly tell the difference between 320 and 128 kbps, but I wasn't able to with this test.

Why is it more difficult to do those gestures on the trackpad? The trackpad is closer to your keyboard and it is very quick to switch between the two.

Exactly. For those who dont't like the learning curves of these editors, there are easy to learn and well designed editors like Sublime Text, Bluefish, Geany.

What exactly do you mean by "originating from GNOME"? http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/xfce4-panel/ I can't find anything GNOME-related here, unless you are talking about GTK (which you probably would already have on your syst

I am really excited about Ouya. It has the potential to become a game changing (pun intended) product. I hope they can live up to all the buzz they have generated.

If I'm not mistaken, the desktop app was Windows-only. I'm using Linux on my desktop.

Not if you care about minimizing audio delay, which greatly matters in certain use cases.

In fact, I prefer Dropbox's Camera Upload. With Dropbox, when I go home and sit in front of my computer, I find my photos as actual files existing on my computer. Google, on the other hand, is trying to make it very convenient to share them
