Couldn't get it to load on a Android 2.1 system, even though the maker says on his demo page that it runs on an iPod Touch/iPhone system, though slowly. Wondering why Android was left out.
iPod touches/iPads != iPhones. The same apps won't work on it if they require microphones, cameras, etc., and thus these devices shouldn't be counted.
Either accept that or all the arguments about Android "fragmentation" go out the window! Or, we could start including Android MID's and Tablet's and hell, even GM's new Volt in-car computer in with the Android numbers.
I wonder about the whole "carries the logo" thing -- my partner just bought an HTC Incredible, and it's got the "Google" branding on it, but it's definitely not a "Google Experience" device.
I'm not familiar with an RSS reader that's built-into Android (and that Google would even have anything to do with) -- are you sure it's not HTC's invention? You might need to be addressing your letter to them.
Ah, but in the business world, there is no such thing as conspiracies, only profits to be made.
You have to admit that if Apple can keep themselves in the news for a few more months, staving off any more people abandoning the platform for Android (now that their AT&T contracts are up), it'd certainly be profitable for them in the end...
The last one happened right in time for the release of the HTC Incredible -- I wonder if this "leak" has anything to do with yesterday's story about Android sales overtaking the iPhone...
Obviously, the free market could've fixed this problem better. The planes that are piloted by minesweeper-playing pilots would crash, leading to less people flying that particular airline.
I mean, you'd have to have a few thousand deaths or so first, but you do have to break a few eggs to make an omelet
Just more proof that Apple is now basically a force fighting against freedom. ARM is helping unseat Intel's monopoly over the computing market by licensing out their design to hundreds of individual chip makers, and Apple apparently wouldn't bat an eye at stopping that relative freedom.
You have to remember that the people usually shouting "wargarbal waste of money" to scientific situations such as these aren't the type to give two shits as to generations that come after them, as we've all seen.:(
Future historians? These people are trying to burn history books today.
With a 5-digit userid, you have to admit that if he's lying about who he is, then it's either an amazing coincidence, or he plans his jokes years in advance...
Okay, I know it's a joke, but isn't it kinda true? Grab one of AMD's chips with disabled cores, and it truly is random how many cores (if any) you might be able to unlock using ACC.:P
Now, I am not a physicist, but wasn't it theorized that black holes "fill up" after a little while, and one couldn't really "grow large enough to shred us?"
The ultimate goal is that illegal immigrants won't be allowed to work here.
I really don't see corporate America ever allowing this to happen. It'll either be painfully easy to circumvent these cards, or there'll be so many loopholes and exceptions that they won't have any power.

Cyanogen supports the updates he makes for my G1 far more than HTC and T-Mobile does, in my opinion.
When there's a bug in the CM mod, it's usually fixed within a series of days.

Circumstantial experience is circumstantial, whaddayouknow.

...but still faster than running Android on an original G1.
If you want to choice, buy an Android phone?
Honestly, I know Steve meant for this to be a burn, but it's not a very smart statement. :\
I have a feeling periods would be the first victim of such interference

Yeah, we here at /. were into Dick before he sold out, and only like, 30 people or something had read his books.

Or they got that thing I sent them.

IIRC, the original laws regarding copyright and patents in the US Constitution weren't half as terrible as they are today.

You can get the same thing with an alcohol enema.
And we've all been there, right?!?
Right...?
I'm thinking in terms of patent portfolios -- Palm and RIM have been in the smartphone game a bit longer than Apple!
Let's see you pick on RIM or Palm, Apple.
Go ahead. Then watch your ass being handed to you, afterward.
