Same here, albeit a different Motorola device. A combination of Motorola and T-Mobile meant I got 2.2 just after 4.0 was released, and I'll never see another legitimate upgrade for my phone, which is less than 2 years old. Not only will I n

As something becomes more pervasive, almost certainly the number of searches for it will go down - it may not (and in this case, dare I say probably doesn't) have anything to do with the level of interest in the search term. Which I assume

Be good if Amazon themselves got behind something like this, by providing the banking and payment infrastructure. They already issue credit cards, they could instead issue debit cards and directly pay into those. Would eliminate the need fo

Make sure you consider the observable differences in app store behaviour in your definition of "it's working", also check out services like macincloud if you're not sure about buying Apple hardware yet. App looks nice :)

Amazon out-innovating the competition again. My money is on this being an implementation of Microsoft Research's VL2, given James Hamilton was a co-author of this ( http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/80693/vl2-sigcomm09-final... )

Arrington mentions 2 ways to look at it (both from the investor perspective), but there's a third - entrepreneurs raising a stiff middle finger to investors who have fucked them over (or tried to). I'm not saying it was the case with Gowall

Agreed - I have a .do with them, if I could get it somewhere else I would. Lucky I used PayPal for payment!

Awesome post. And you can kind of do this even working for Megacorps - in fact if you are working for a Megacorp, have a desire to see more of the world, and are _not_ taking full advantage of the ability to internally xfr to another countr

When spending $12bil on a second rate hardware company is cheaper than the legal cost of patent defense, things like this will happen.

An even smaller nit to pick is that nits are ordered by size, not count.

I am not sure this is that much more disturbing than the British Government even thinking about restricting the use of social media apps during times of civil disobedience. And this is extremely disturbing. How can any global company now do

This article of a few weeks back adds more about the "not spread by rats" aspect (as well some really typical British humour in the commentary of the article). http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2027347/Black-Deat...

Disappointing post from someone who really should know better - he confuses JavaScript with the DOM and other things in several places (i mean really... is he suggesting that JavaScript should have some native capability to "include standar
