I think that is great, and they are very fortunate. Unfortunately it doesn't match my experience with such seniors. The ones I have contact with are totally intimidated by computers and can't seem to get past the complexity of using such s

Exactly my point.

Based on a comment a reader left on the post, I thought I'd add a small personal comment. I have such a senior lady in my family. One with 94 years and a pretty dull life. One that can’t really read the small type on a regular paper book or

Couldn't agree more. That is exactly the situation that Apple wants to head off. Apple wants iPhone and iPad applications to fully integrate with the infrastructure they are providing such as fast task switching, social gaming and iAd.

No, not really. As I joined this community recently I submitted some articles that are not news related and which, as the welcome statement for the community says, stimulates deeper thinking about some issues. The blog has had over 130 po

Yes, perhaps when all those devices exist you will be able to write an application that runs on all of them, specially if you write an application that works on the oldest version of the OS as right now new phones are being released with wi

Well, I guess it is you that don't know a few things. My notebook in question was running Windows and it is made by Dell. There was no fan noise, just my CPU being used all to much to display a one inch big Ad on screen. I love how peopl

I didn't say Flash was bad, though I've had some bad experiences with the oddest bits of it consuming 30% of a code duo CPU. The article just states that sits are dropping flash, because Apple doesn't support it. It also states that people

Thanks for the feedback. Its been a while since I was last in Europe, I probably just didn't remember that being so. It certainly isn't so in Brazil. Those other mp3 players normally can only be found in small, not so reputable stores here

You could be a bit more civil in your comment and you are certainly entitled to your opinion. I never said that Apple had pure or angelical motives for not wanting Flash, I just pointed out that many sites are stripping out Flash, because A

Not much that I can say to that, but I beg to differ. :-)

As you say, it might offer a competent alternative within a year, but it doesn't now and there is no competing device running Android right now. I hope Android does offer a good alternative as I wouldn't like to see a market with a single d

I'm not in the US. I'm in Brazil. You cannot go into a reputable store here and find other players. Perhaps if you are really determined to buy non-Apple and are willing to spend a couple of hours looking you might find something but proba
