Khan is an Electrical Engineer from MIT with an MBA from Harvard. His ability to teach far outperforms the majority of university professors. Try watching some of his videos.

As a student at UCLA I can say that I have learned more from a handful of Khan's Calculus and Linear Algebra video tutorials than I have from several quarters worth of math courses at school. Clearly there is controversy in this statement.

3.1.3 is a largely unnecessary update that doesn't do much besides fixing certain jailbreak exploits. I would recommend sticking with 3.1.2 - that's what I'm doing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_version_history#3.1.2

I'm a big Android fan but I'm also a realist. The reason for shrinking iPhone sales is the public waiting for the next iteration of the phone. Nobody wants a handset that's obsolete in a month. Show me these numbers in June.
