What about HTML5 and Javascript? Quite frankly, Flash is a horrible format. Even MS puts some work and pride into their Silverlight App for God's sake.
Because it means that your choice of Android phones are going to become a sea of non-descript, mediocre devices that don't do anything special in a variety of prices.
Funny, I seem to remember a time when Apple was moving towards bankruptcy.
Yeah, they brought in someone with talent and actual vision for the company not just ape what the best competitors were doing and try to please everyone who didn't buy their product for whatever reason.
Here though, Palm's just treading water until the inevitable happens and they go bankrupt. I was considering a Pre until their spat with Apple over iTunes syncing. I built a tiny app that I use to sync my iTunes library with my PSP *just to prove it can be done.* Using the publicly available XML and other such stuff.
Right because it's in Adobe's best interest to no longer support Photoshop or Illustrator or Acrobat or Audition or Premiere on Mac? Granted, Aperture, Light Room, Garage Band and Final Cut all exist from Apple, but, I'm willing to bet the most hardcore Photoshop or Illustrator houses are Mac, not Windows.
Even though I'm constantly downloading everything the internet has to offer I have never felt like I needed a faster speed.
You are clearly not a rabid enough TV fan. You have no idea how tempting it is to upgrade to the 50/5 plan Cox offers when I saw the torrent go up for the first episode of the new series of Doctor Who.
I think their dad or mom telling them how much fun and how enjoyable sex is is enough to turn a kid off to sex until they're atleast 35. Which explains why a lot of the 40 year old virgin crowd tend to have pretty hip and progressive parents.

It's experimental builds also named after the internal rendering engine.
But that doesnt' change the fact that unlike mshtml.dll, I can take a gander at the source behind what's going on.

I'm sorry but when I was last PC gaming, it wasn't Hackers who decided that nVidia's drivers were crap and not let me use my external monitor as a primary. It wasn't hackers who kept games from running because of poor gaming APIs, and it certainly wasn't hackers fault that TCP/IP crapped itself and made online play rough.
Stability and uniformity IS an advantage when you've got a device that's designed to do a narrow focus of things. Say what you will about "closed" systems, the PS3 and 360 are far superior gaming experiences to the PC simply due to the fact that I don't have to troubleshoot DirectX issues, figure out driver problems or wonder if i need to tweak my TCP/IP settings. Sure, you can talk about graphics, or preferred input devices all you want, but, when you're busy trying to figure out what's wrong, I'm going to be gaming. beyond that, Sony seems to have taken a, "If I lock this out, what will it break?" approach to lock down. Sure, custom firmware, and software are out, but off the shelf hardware IS in. If a developer supported it, I can play an FPS with a mouse and keyboard. Or use a standard USB pad in place of a Sixaxis. or use standard bluetooth headsets. etc. etc. etc.

I have access to the OS Kernel source and the source to the built in web browser when I chose an Apple product. I'd like to see any given Microsoft user say the same thing with out signing an NDA keeping them from talking about it.
Slashdot Mirror
Everyone's chasing Apple's formfactor and design concept. Just like how everyone's chased Palm's formfactor back in the 90's and early 00's.
That's a revolution. When you do something and everyone follows.
Why!? Nintendo makes games and consoles, not cell phones. I'm not sure how well a Nintendo cell phone would do in Nintendo's corporate culture.
(However, if they DO, I'm buying one and replacing my iPhone. If it's any good I'm buying two.)
Unless you happen to be Andre the Giant, beating someone with a sock full of oranges isn't going to net you much.
If you changed citrus fruits or containers, or both, you might get better results. Like beating someone with a pillowcase full of satsumas.

Is he quitting? Will he leave all his stuff behind for garbage collectors to pick up? Or will he clean up after him by hand?
So C, C++ and JavaScript are crappy Apple languages?
That gives me an idea.
I'm going to sell a book of "Lottery Secrets THEY don't want you to know."
Wait...
Probably because like any other good problem, they both offer a problem and they help start the solving process.
Because it means that your choice of Android phones are going to become a sea of non-descript, mediocre devices that don't do anything special in a variety of prices.
So what you're saying is that Android is fast becoming a useless OS because everyone's shitting out the same hardware?

Yes and my Pentium 3 with 128 megs of RAM years ago had one thing that my iPhone doesn't.
A stonking huge hard drive for virtual memory and an always on PSU.

Woohoo! I can develop a subset of my apps on a specific CPU for a multi-CPU supoprting platform!

If I was Jobs, I wouldn't panic.
Probably because any intermediary code is going to invariably break with OS and API updates if wrappers and metaframeworks are used.
I can't code in C++ on Android, which forces Java(not a bad language by any means, but, not native either), so big deal?
whoosh.
I don't care what foursquare does. Just dont' get between me and my mild form of alcohol dependence.
Even though I'm constantly downloading everything the internet has to offer I have never felt like I needed a faster speed.

My bar is sacred to me. Telling me to go to another bar is akin to proselytizing.
In short, heresy.
Thank god FourSquare didn't sell out.
Because 4square's not making any money *now*.
I've seen it posted here somewhere, but it's been said that money can't buy happiness but the lack of money can buy a whole lot of misery.
