With Verizon and AT&T both planning full deployment of LTE this year, I'm thinking that AT&T will get the iPhone 5 with LTE support likely and Verizon users will be stuck waiting a while.
Don't think so. AT&T is marketing HSPA+ as 4G like T-Mobile for now. This year's iPhone will probably be "4G" but not actually LTE. I wouldn't expect an LTE iPhone until the beginning of next year for Verizon, followed by AT&T next summer.
They don't allow you to scan losers? Some of the lottery tickets can be too much of a hassle to do, and I will just ask the clerk to check if they are winners or not. I try to stick to the simple ones though.
I thought Android 2.2 had this capability by default. Of course with the iPhone you can do this if you jailbreak and install MyWi (or another program). I didn't get the 3G iPad since I always carry my phone, and MyWi is a good alternative for when I want to use my iPad away from WiFi.
Why is my comment a troll? I was just pointing out that its funny the free cases are causing these issues. I'm sorry people are having trouble. I believe Apple will replace the back for $30. It is not the end of the world.
Everybody wants free cases for the antenna thing, and Apple gives in. Now people use the free cases and the back of the phone breaks. Oh great. Haven't had any problems myself.
And if they had 500 routers they would all somehow use stateless autoconfiguration? I'm against NAT myself, but a business not needing to reconfigure their network when changing ISPs is a halfway decent argument for it that I have heard.
Its no big deal and I understand what you are saying. I just think this supposed 5GB cap has gotten a lot of hype when it is not actually used against anyone.
No it really didn't. The contract mentions they can restrict their Data Connect plans to 5GB. It doesn't say anything about the iPhone plan being limited. Feel free to contradict me with proof of what the contract says or actual evidence of someone being booted off an iPhone plan for exceeding the data limit. You will hear many reports of people who go well over 5 GB without an issue.
I think jailbreaking is your best solution. In fact running your own code on the device without Apple's approval is kind of the whole point of jailbreaking. I've spent some time developing apps for my phone. I'd like to come up with something worthwhile, and then pay the $99 fee.
This website requires user action. The vulnerability itself is done simply by opening up a PDF. So all a web site has to do is trick a user to click on a link.
This vulnerability just came out, and Apple hasn't fixed it yet. I wish they would fix it though. A PDF shouldn't be able to install software. Happy to have the jailbreak though. They shouldn't be sued for fixing this hole.
Calm down. It came out yesterday, as far as I know. And some users have "reported that the modification results in broken MMS and FaceTime functionality" in the forums that I have seen. They are simply reporting what has happened. If it has been fixed that is great.
It must be a security issue that Safari is able to install an app. Can't imagine what else it can do.
Glad to have the jailbreak though. I will be using the donate button.
I can make the signal drop to one bar in some locations just by touching that spot. No hard squeezing needed. Not only does the signal drop but all data transfer stops as well, though calls can be made. It depends on how strong the signal is to start with. If the signal is strong to start you won't notice a problem when touching the spot, squeeizing hard, etc.
(I just avoid the problem by not touching the phone there, though I also started using a bumper case as well)
I wish they would stick to a regular sim. Sometimes when my battery does it is helpful for me to switch the sim to another phone. I am assuming a micro sim would make this more difficult.

iPad Review

I don't think he said the problems with Slashdot were specific to the iPad, only that they were more apparent on the iPad's larger screen. And since the reviewer is a Slashdot founder, I would think his opinion of how Slashdot looks on the iPad is relevant to the review. His criticism of mobile web sites is valid as well, and I think it is is good to bring up discussion about it. I use an iPhone and many web sites switch to a mobile version that simply does not work. I'd rather just have the full version. As a criticism to Apple, their browser identity string identifies the iPhone as a mobile device, and Apple gives no way to change this. It is my understanding that the Droid does give the user a choice.
Squaretrade offers insurance for the iPhone. I insured my original iPhone with them for 3years for about $90. Mine still works fine to this day, so I don't have any experience filing a claim with them.

What? The article is dated yesterday. The summary is talking about the upcoming competition in March that he was preparing for.
What about the dolts who mistakenly hit the two key combination and can't figure out how to turn it off?

Yea that's why the bumper rules!

NAT could also be used in a business if they didn't want to risk needing to give new IP addresses everywhere if they switched ISPs.

Not true about 5 GB limit. The old iPhone plans are unlimited. The 5 GB cap applies to another plan.
Why would a self checkout cost $100K? It's the same as a regular checkout line just positioned differently. Maybe slight changes to detect fraud.
Are you aware that in the government's opinion jailbreaking is not a DMCA violation? http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/us-government-jailbreaking-iphone-legal/story?id=11254253

Actually it looks like they just saved the 3G part for the end of the presentation....
