I think it will be okay as long as updates are continually released and those updates are supported by the carriers because phones have a rather fast rate of adoption considering many people do the two year contract and phone upgrade cycle.

I think it is more of a case of the software locking you to the hardware for apples case which is rather interesting now that the hardware, at least for Macs, is now pretty much standard hardware with regards to processors and such.

My only real point was that 300 dollars wasn't ever really in my budget but I go to college on scholarships and other such things so I'm probably different than many. The engineering tools, especially what you get with many of the student e

For comparison as an engineering student I spent 100 dollars for matlab, something I end up using all the time for class, for a convenience factor as I don't really pirate anything but if I were a design student I really wouldn't want to fo

I was simply stating that patches shouldn't be accepted just because a high profile person submitted it (which this could possible be used to spoof for malicious intent). As for the second part I was wondering if this had any other implicat

I would hope people didn't blindly accept patches off of merit anyways, or is there another problem I am missing? Edit: not to say this shouldn't be fixed I am curious if this implies anything else that I may be missing.

If you really are worried about jail time contact a lawyer and most probably delete any trace of the files. If you aren't going to do that, or even if you are, contact the people who are storing this in plaintext and tell them why it is wro

We have had almost speech interfaces on phones for a little while, though the phone doesn't really talk to you. If you hold down the search button on an android phone and then say "Call Mom" it works reasonably well. It also does searches

I think the real thing is that many people would just like a more convenient way to search this site, I've become accustomed to using searchyc but no one really knows that exists until someone points it out. Even if it is just a link that s

You would be surprised at what crap people can make using a drag and drop interface, just because people are better off doesn't mean they are more inclined that way.

I don't think very many people understand that abstracts are really tl;dr's because many people haven't ever really written a report, but yes abstracts are nice if an article is long enough to warrant it.

You should have bought a rice cooker they are a lot more useful. I suspect the ipad-laptop usability will appear in a bit, but I don't think it will be as bad as bread-makers.

As long as it isn't required in any way for any features (other than facebook things) I am actually okay with blizzard doing this, and if all ends up right it will be a flop and won't even matter in the long run. But as I haven't ever had a

It bothers me; lack of capitalization makes me think a person didn't care enough to read over what they wrote even if it is just looking at the text as they write it.

Just so you know you can get rid of the free books by moving the clicking thing to the left (or maybe right) on the book you want to delete an option will come up. I think it is also a menu item as well as being able to remove it by usb.
