Exactly. The inclusion of the sensor is not about being 100% secure all the time, it's about encouraging the use of some level of security by the majority who currently have none. Since it is quicker to use the sensor than to swipe to unlock without a PIN, that is the metric to consider.
Your point was that iTunes Radio isn't a threat to Pandora. You also ignored the fact iTunes Radio will be available in more countries than Pandora (something investors will be concerned about). Also, you ignored the fact the growth of streaming radio is mostly in the mobile space. Also, you ignored the fact there are currently more iTunes users than Pandora subscribers.
You do realize the architecture isn't the same as your windows machine? The 4 GB argument is only put forward by those that don't know what they are talking about.
You have hit the nail on the head here. What we need is an AI that "learns" what we (as individuals) consider important updates, and the rest of the gimmicks can go away (turn off). The biggest problem is that this hypothetical AI would possibly use more battery than just leaving everything on....
"a woman is shown asking Google Now what the weather will be like in Toronto while she types away on a computer, never having to reach down to tap the handset."
That is the type of "feature" I immediately deactivate to conserve battery. Most features added by manufacturers these days seem like gimmicks where the drawbacks are greater than the benefits.

Also, why does it only work on Chrome? Why not Safari?

gmail and yahoo are well known.

The part after "@" gives them all the info they need (e.g. @gmail.com @yahoo.com).

This is not x86 architecture. You don't know anything about ARM.
Jealous much?

Pandora doesn't exist in those countries either....
The iPhone is the most common phone... (not platform).
You somehow ignored iPad though....
This is mostly happening in the mobile space.
"English is difficult"
That's what she said!

Because the battery lasts longer than the day before (duh).

Gartner says that these PC shipment numbers include Windows 8 tablets, but not Apple’s iPads.
The GP said never. There was an additional link posted with another incident as well...
You can't count or read. You didn't even need to follow the link to find that it was more than one. You are not intelligent enough to debate.
Really? Where in TFA did you get any information about the "bug" that would support your claim?
"A former Navy SEAL known for claiming a record number of sniper killings in Iraq was one of two men shot dead at a Texas gun range, allegedly at the hands of a fellow military veteran, officials say."
I've read about several murders at them. "In the ongoing gun control debate, the same argument often comes up: nobody gets shot at the gun range. Here are five incidents of deaths, both accidental and intentional, at gun ranges across the U.S."
Skype has "Do Not Disturb" which would be even more useful.
So?
How is this modded +3 when it shows the long-winded poster didn't even RTF?
