He means it in the sense that most people stick to PayPal and your story is nothing but a blip. Google never gave enough incentive for most people to leave PayPal for Checkout. I doubt the majority of my PayPal using friends have ever heard

I've had an S3 (currently an iPhone 5) running both stock TouchWiz and CyanogenMod10.1, which is the closest to stock Android I can get. The hardware button didn't make sense to me because it made the back and menu buttons much closer to th

Last year, I did Academic Decathlon and we had an enormous binder containing study material for seven subjects. Being the lazy and practical boy I am, I chose to instead read the PDFs on my tablet (10 inches) instead. While it worked for me

If this is correct, then it is technically record breaking: "Apple just announced its Q1 2013 earnings, and the company posted a record $13.1b profit on a record $54.5b in revenue. That's just over last year's record of $13.06b profit on $4

I definitely would! I'm very interested in the first phones to be released, although I feel that consumers may be too entrenched already. But either way, I'd be interested. I only hope that there will be a way for me to try the OS on my SGS

I want it to succeed so badly because I was a huge fan of the Nokia N900 and the N9. But it won't. They haven't released the OS yet and it already feels dead in the water. The first video I can find of "Tizen 2.0" on YouTube is from 3 month

They have the same amount of RAM if you're comparing the American S3 and I'm assuming you are since you're implying the model of S3 in your mind is dual core (American S3 is dual core). Also, the N4 had an extra 48 lines of pixels that are

It's not as simple as charging per pixel. First of all, raising the resolution that high is still fairly new compared to 1080p. Lots of screens are going to come out not 100% perfect. See Catleap as evidence that lots of panels come out wit

Not only that, but instead of a newline button now, there's a shortcut to emoticons. Because somehow that's more important than inserting a new line.

The speculation by many is that Google didn't allow Apple to have certain features. Why else would Apple rush their maps app out if it wasn't because they needed to? Why would they willingly let one of the biggest apps on the phone stagnate

You really believe that Steve Jobs, who was known for his ability to foresee what others in the industry couldn't, didn't plan one year ahead for one of his flagship products? No, the iPhone 5 almost certainly was a Jobs product.

Kernel states are saved or something, leading to faster bootup times. It's sort of like the hibernate option we've had for so long, but just on a smaller scale. Is it a good idea? Could be and probably is. But I'm paranoid that a clean rest

Just curious, why did Maps make Android not an option? Samsung bundles their own apps with their skin of Android. Is there something that prevented Nokia from doing so too? >there being even fewer 3rd-party apps today than Windows Phone

Because sometimes the man in the street has an effect on others. Consider textbooks. Sometimes (like in Kansas 1999), creationists can control enough of the governing body for state textbooks that they can eliminate core ideas of evolution.

That's just ridiculous. First, you assume that people buy Macs for the OS rather than the the beautiful hardware. Even if it's true, where's the evidence? And why does it matter that Apple ties the OS to the hardware? Still not illegal beca
