Android is becoming more and more "fluid" across the board. That is why Apple is hitting back. 3 years ago iPhone was the best package you could buy, as smartphones went, but now I am a happy Nexus One user and an unhappy iPod Touch user(the only redeeming feature is the 16GB storage and the price I got it at).
Innovation by definition is introducing ideas to the markets, not actually coming up with those ideas. So, as much as I hate Apple, they were(I can't see into the future) innovators.
What has an investor expectation of profitability(witch your market cap number displays) do with actual power? A small company won a patent suit against Microsoft not long ago, if you are unaware.
What has touchscreen(one functionality) has to do with rotation(another functionality)? Does an idea of putting blinking lights on a vacuum cleaner make foran innovative idea, just by adding a non-complimenting functionality with another functionality?
But, I do believe that you just simply misrepresenting information.
Oh, please! Read the actual original complaint. Nokia's main request IS to define the price. They only started the actual "hostilities" after Apple filed counter suit.
A) We know nothing about the actual negotiations. Face it, no insider will talk openly about it.
B) By looking at the original Nokias complaint, there is no precedent on patent licensing without non-cross licensing additional patents. I infer that from the fact that Nokia asks to determine the price in the complaint(witch I actually read). So what Apple wanted as a fair price might have been really inadequate and baseless.
Nokia was not turining a blind eye on Apple, but started negotiations immediately. That is, the negotiations broke down after 2 years! That is the negotiations had to start just after iPhone launch.
Apple offered to give them access to the patents that Nokia is being sued for violating but that wasn't enough for Nokia.
Since you are posting this as an AC due to you being an insider.... Oh wait! You are not posting this as AC, therefore you can't know the details of the negotiations.
A) Fix the summary. Because it's Vivendi that acquired Activision, not the other way around.The first sentence should say: "Activision, after being acquired Vivendi,..."(or something similar)
B) With KQ in mind, what the summary should say, is "Activision, having become a parent company of Sierra,..."
C) Since Vivendi is still the owner of Activision (Vivendi owns ActivisionBizzard and ActivisionBlizzard owns Activision) there should not be any talks about changes of ownership. They may shuffle around their IP, but it's still owned by Vivendi.
You are under an illusion that price fixing is just plain pricing.
Price fixing is illegal, because it involves all major manufacturers. It's like not only Toyota charging 100'000 for a car, but Toyota having an agreement with everyone else to set prices of cars at 100'000. That is illegal, because it defeats the idea of a competitive market.
Oh, and please don't butcher the apostrophe.
Most, if not all, Palestinians "hate" Jews and Israel. But when Israel was building the "security " wall a lot of subcontractors were Palestinians and Palestinian companies. Stereotypes crash and burn when talk comes to money.
There is an old saying: Business is business.
If you plan on killing a person that is in another country, killing him will still be a crime. Or did you no know, that it's not the actual meetings on price fixing that are illegal, but the act of price fixing itself?
The cracked version is same crap. It's good that I played both the retail and the cracked version before deciding on the purchase. I did not go for the PC version of the game as a result.
Now you can count me as a lost sale you f**ktards! And I am an actual LOST sale not due to piracy.
PS: I will not buy the game for any platform, and played it for lono nger than 15 minutes. Nor will I actually play the game illegally.

As Windows Vista has shown, these people still do listen to technical folk(I was actually amazed that they did). Even though you want to think they don't.
You could actually replicate the experience... The specs are all there. I can say, that on screen keyboard will be unusable for me. Why? Because while holding the device in portrait mode, my thumbs will not reach the keys in the middle of the keyboard. Why do I know that? Because I have a damn ruler to measure!
Oh please. Windows Vista flopped despite being marketed to simple people, while the same people were hearing it's bad from the tech crowd. The will have to market the damn device extremely hard. Because a lot of people in the tech crowd are non-supportive, to say the least.
I have, too many. But you are saying woman, while thinking teenage girls. Women actually buy electronics based on appropriate functionality, and are generally better at picking out consumer electronics(per my personal observations). The iPad will be more of a hit with men.
Facepalm...
This is just incredible. I tried to do the price comparisons, and each time Apple comes as the looser. The only space of time when it's Apple's products are equally priced are right at the product launch. But there is no way to compare Apples to Dells in 1-to-1 way. There are very specific differences.
For the price of a 13" MacBook you can get an quad-core i7 system with 15" display, dedicated graphics, more ram and more disk space at a price that is $100 less.

Maybe you should understand the philosophy and how to do actual multitasking on Android.

Last I checked CompizFusion was much more valuable in daily activities than Win7's features, maybe with the exception on the maximize to half screen.

People are generally unethical baboons. Investors and shareholders are 2^N times more unethical and are less than just baboons.

The problem is only that Objective-C is just plain horrible, and you just can't escape from using it.

Well I for one don't like Mac's and don't want to pay Microsoft for anything. See my problem with iPad?

It's definitely a good device, but claiming it to be magic, is just too much.
