It might just be leftover from the early days of the iPhone, where AT&T, the original carrier of the iPhone in the states, complained about network congestion and bandwidth issues in highly populated areas. I would think that AT&T m

I can attest to this as well. The talk of getting something done far outweighs the getting something done. People want/need things in certain ways, and at some point someone is issuing the commands that can't be argued with anymor

I think a better product would be to create a band you can wrap around your own umbrella that does the same thing. Of course, it could be for anything at that point and that is often more difficult to market whereas losing an umbrella is a

I use KeePass these days. It appears to have plugins browser integration if that's the important thing. I don't find it especially good or bad, but it does the job and it's all stored locally -- I'm not concerned with ac

I'm not nearly as proficient in C/C++ as I would care to be (I work with Java web apps by trade), but when I come across these source dumps that I would be interested in exploring, I seem to fumble while getting started. So I apol

I agree with you, but it seems the train has already left the station. I don't use my tablet all that much, but I don't find myself questioning how something is done (that stuff didn't really change), or why things look diffe

My experience is similar on a Galaxy S4. The extremely long processing time lead me to believe it had locked up or was otherwise doing nothing. Also, it managed to find a beer name when I took a picture of nothing (covered the lens).

Can't edit anymore -- but if anyone was curious, the find and replace did the job as expected, and my other computer had no issues. The only difference was multiple drive designations -- the computer with the issue had the program inst

Anyone else experience some issues opening a project in the new version? My $USER_HOME$ seems to have changed from one directory in another. I can still open the project in 13.1.5 but 14.0 can't find any of the files, since it looks in

Presumably, if you're reaching across the pad, you're looking at the monitor, and if you're touching something on the pad then you probably can't see through your arms/hands anyway. That being said, I think a second

Were people asking for something like this, or is this Google responding to Apple's HealthKit? I understand the need to offer competing products on their own platform, but I've come to doubt the long term usefulness/support

Just wanted to throw my experience into this thread. Every time I've booked a flight in the past couple years, I've gone to Hipmunk to check schedules. Out of the 10 or so flights I've taken, Hipmunk always provided the same

Indeed, the developer can only explain the permissions in the description. Perhaps developers should be able to explain permissions in the application's manifest file (where permissions are defined). Or, maybe there should be a method

It seems (and is logical, I suppose) that you have to match the symbol pretty closely to get what you're looking for. I drew a car twice, the first time getting absolutely nothing relevant, and the second time -- trying to be more prec

You might be surprised to hear that some libraries have an ebook section. My hometown has a "digital library" that it shares with other libraries in the region. It works the same as a regular book (only one person per copy) but yo

Take with a grain of salt since I'm not the target audience. I read "All your team's contacts in one place" and think it's a shared address book. However, it's not the contact information that interesting, it&#
