Fragmentation Comes To iOS

Posted by timothy on from the all-nimbly-pimbly dept.

dell623 writes "While the fragmentation issues in iOS are nowhere near as bad as Android, it can no longer be considered non existent. I have prepared a chart showing which features will be available on which device. While some restrictions are the result of hardware limitations, it is clear that Apple has deliberately chosen to limit some previous generation devices, and figuring this out isn't always straightforward if you're not buying the latest iPad or iPhone."

    Is slashdot just linking to people's random ass blogs now?

    Oh we've been linking to ass blogs for awhile now.

    And since nobody who matters any more gives a flying monkey about Linux, /. is forced to poke at the only company that's showing real innovation and growth over the past five years.
