When will people stop repeating this as if it was a fact ?
Cell service varies by location for every cell company. No cell company is the best or worst everywhere. Please get a clue or at least say "1. Carrier. AT&T sucks (for me)"

Heh, sorry, it kinda got away from me (also, where's my $9.99!).
Short version: Google want volume (higher ad revenue), Apple want profit from the hardware. Apple innovate in consumer space, Google target feature set. Both are valid ways of doing business but not necessarily competing in the same market sectors. Apple will surely have new products / service to offer but will probably continue doing the unexpected rather than competing on features.
Plus, fanboys are annoying.
this is what i gathered from skimming the post. as for the $9.99 I dont know how apple pays out monies owed but u will see it soon
this is correct. tho i was talking about no service. the reason why you drop calls in major cities with 5 bars is cause like a website the bandwidth is being overloaded. tho its still partly apples fault due to the iphone using more bandwidth then needed. tho apparently i heard (forgot where) that either 4.0 or the new iphone will handle data better
I had my dislikes about PC's for years. I've owned my fair share of them to really not like the whole function on how you interact with the system. When a friend of mine showed me his MacBook Pro and how it works and how it didnt have any of the problems that PC's have I was sold on the Mac. The whole "I'm a Mac" thing I adopted after I switched because I like my MacBook Pro way better than any PC I ever owned. I would 100% buy another Apple Computer when I need one because they are a better product, and that goes with the Hardware and software. Yes, I don't mind paying alittle bit more for a Mac. I know people do flame on that point from time to time. But like I've told people before you get what you paid for, and if your hard on the stuff you buy then almost anything won't last long at all.
I think Steve said that the biggest battery hog was the screen, it didn't matter whether you were surfing or watching video.
And we Americans don't speak with proper English? What the hell are y'all drinking over there?
Also: how is that any way to talk to a CEO? I would of emailed him back and told him to try again and more properly this time.
Considering this post I would guess that a fair number of Americans don't speak English properly.
They did kind of invent the language over there ya know.
CEO or not Steve is just a man, deserving of no more respect than anyone else.
Considering this post I would guess that a fair number of Americans don't speak English properly.
Yeah being a new Texas resident, I find just talking to these southern hicks is a daily struggle
Yo bitch u spelt my name wrong
Also I think it was lunch time in the states when the reply came back. He was probably on the toilet.
Yo Briana, I am actually curious about your experience with the Desire (it's basically a slightly lower-end version of the Incredible, right?) Where can we read about your (biased?) experience?
I am actually looking to dump my 3Gs and jump on the Android bandwagon, but want something with a larger screen and OS 2.2. The EVO looks promising, but it's 2.1 and I am hoping for Tegra2 or Atom D6 in a few months.
unless i'm mistaken I was always taught "AN" was used when the word following began in a vowel...so unless H is a vowel or different rules are used for acronyms I think I'll stand by what I said, but I'd be happy to be cleared up on the matter...love to learn new stuff
That one's kind of ambiguous, because if you read out the acronym ("a high definition..."), then "a" is appropriate. But in general, I agree, if you use the acronym, read the acronym.
I think you're correct. Well observed!
Is this some personal rule of yours that consonants can't be preceded by the indefinite article an? You should patent it!
I think the guy just tried to sound cool. Though I do agree, using foul language usually isn't going to aid your cause.
No it is not. Nevertheless, since HDTV is an acronym, you pronounce it by spelling the individual letters. Since the letter "h" is spelled starting with the sound of letter "a," it is perfectly correct to use an indefinite article an in front of HDTV.
Well, we need some way to use the iPhone and iPad without a computer, a good web service could do just that. iAd based free service would be cool.
