Just jailbreak.. or get an Android. DIY! Don't desperately hope that Apple will do something for you, they are purposely dumbing down their products for the sake of "User Experience".

The problem is I have yet to see a livestream solution, that isn't based on Flash. I watch soccer and starcraft livestreams quite often, and also did so on my Android in the subway. On a tablet that what be a must have for me.

Oh that's gonna change, no doubt. Produces can't ignore iOS, true, they'll suck it up for now, but the mobile market isn't gonna stay this way forever if Apple continues to behave this way. I say 80% of all apps we do, we do now both for iO

Okay I realize I shouldn't have said 'Europe', because it seems to differ quite a bit from country to country. I myself are from Germany and while its relativly easy to get a credit card from your bank, only a small minority owns one. The p

They need to add other payment options then CreditCards to Google Checkout. Nobody uses CreditCards in Europe and it's kinda stupid that I can't even buy Apps on the Marketplace and have see if the vendor support direct purchase form their

You could simply install Ubuntu on a MacBook, but if you want something separate check out the HP Envy line.

The complains are about Apples iMacs and Notebooks, which are still pretty pricey for the hardware thats in there. All the iOS devices are very competitive priced.

Looks so weird to see the letters "NOKIA" on something running WM7, you almost get the feeling that they just sold their soul (not that WM7 is any bad, just not used to see that combination).

Seems to be the same thing with the BlizzAuthenticator. Good idea, but I wouldn't use it. You gotta consider what happens if you loose your phone. You can't do any emergency calls and don't even have access to your saved phone numbers anymo

Maybe no users complain, but as a developer I often think, god damn, why is there so few RAM in there. And no iOS doesn't do memory managment seamlessy, the responsiveness comes from developers working hard to constantly cache/unchache ever

Well look, this thing comes preinstalled with Windows, so all the Google engineers did is go to www.google.com on IE, search for something and - voila a short time later the results are on bing.com. Automated spidering or not, the way this

Well I'm definitely on the Android side of things, but never would I recommend buying the Galaxy Tab over the iPad. The iPad got accused of being just a bigger iPod Touch, but here they've literally just put a phone OS, which isn't even th

Nice, just found Kod yesterday while browsing around Github and gave it a try. Really like the dark syntax highlighting, looks very pleasing. I seem to have a font-rendering issue though, the text looks kinda blurry.

Yes, and while he's right that the 3D effect is not synchronized with the focus distance, saying that's bad for your vision, causes the brain to work more or even causes headaches is pure speculation.

Don't know, everybody seems to bash 3D these days. When I watched Avatar I thought it was pretty awesome and didn't get any headaches either. Maybe it's no good having a 3D TV at home and expose ourselves constantly to fake 3D every day, bu

They are probably considering allowing Androids and iPhones to be hooked up to a BlackBerry Enterprise Server via some special software on the phone. Knowing RIM, this won't be released for another 2 years and barley work then.
