The one thing I wish iCloud could offer -- ability to save and archive off app data, is missing. Say I want to uninstall a game but keep the saved game, I have to resort to jailbreaking, and then using PkgBackup or AppBackup to pull the data to a safe place. With Android, any backup utility (I prefer Titanium Backup, but I'm sure others are able to do it) will allow you to save off the latest Angry Birds scores and uninstall the app if you need the space.
Pulling a game's data from an iPhone (and copying it to a different iDevice) does not require jailbreaking.
The 1% already control everything. Everything that you buy, everything that you watch and everything that you do is controlled completely by this 1% group. Just about the only way I can think of to wrest power away from these folks is if the 99% were to stop buying everything for more than 90 days. Once the corporations see their income statements go to zilch then you would see real change.
Someone should mention this to the protesters wearing logo jackets, hats, backpacks, and shoes, and carrying cameras and video cameras, and camping in expensive tents. Sure, there are some there that need a bath, but they usually have a good bicycle.
Hardware specs are not the best measure of user experience. And considering the relative number of apps for the different platforms I don't think "iPhones do less" is an a accurate statement. So the answer to your question is, "No".
The clue was in the third word of the title, although it seems you're not alone in reading the first two words of the title and then just extrapolating an entire story in your mind.

Because they probably bought more than exactly 250? Maybe if you had an iPad in elementary school you would be able to reason and search instead of pointless questions.
In May, the Auburn School Department will buy 100 iPad 2s for 80 students and 20 teachers.
This fall, Auburn schools will purchase another 225 so that all 285 kindergarten students, and dozens of teachers, will have them. The iPad 2s will also be used by intervention and special education teachers.
... apps tend to be really buggy and never really work as required. Either the feel is slow, you accidentally click somewhere or do something that loses all your work...
just like windows apps...
That that doesn't make sense, but you really believe that only apps on the Windows platform are buggy and never really work as required or slow or you can accidently lose your work then it's just sad that you posted it in a pseudo-tech forum.
When the conversation does turn to technology, Microsoft and Apple are bashed with information that is often years old and often not relevant to the topic. It seems there's been a flood items posted recently (coincidence with Taco gone?) and I'm struggling to find "News for Nerds and Stuff that Matters". But I am still bitter from a post I recently made with an excerpt from a published article with the citation requested by the authors that was yanked and the misinformation/guessing continued unabated. Apparently number of posts is more important than accuracy. As an old fart I come hear to hear and learn about the technologies I don't use and look at the folks with high IDs to be the fresh youngsters doing cutting edge stuff. Instead there are mostly foks defending criminal technological behavior and a generally emotional lack of respect for the issues surrounding the responsibilities of IT.
Oh,well. To get back on topic: I type with my hands (more specifically, my fingers and thumbs). No. No. Yes. No.

You missed the part where I said that many of those features are "already available on iOS"
No, that's where I stopped reading because it isn't true.

And hey, at least RMS won't need to worry about his funeral being picketed by the Westboro folks.
That depends on now much media coverage there is.
You tell a kid whose parent died that you're not glad the parent is dead, but you're glad they're gone. See how well that works for you.
Then it's a good thing he made the comments to adults who understand the difference.

What app is that? Never heard of this protocol, F2F.
It's like P2P, but I'm better than my friends.
Yes, we need to be brothers in arms against this or we'll end up in dire straits.
But the real question is, why would anyone think they are "paying more for less" in the first place?
Because they're buying Apple products?
Again, less of what?
Because they probably bought more than exactly 250? Maybe if you had an iPad in elementary school you would be able to reason and search instead of pointless questions.

Breaches: Linux 1, Windows 2317
That's the problem. Complacency? Ignorance? Denial? Or just another bash on Windows?
Follow the money. Who stands to gain from creating fear, uncertainty, and doubt surrounding Linux and it's related organizations?
Exactly! The folks at BeOS!!!!

The point is that TSA workers don't have "good names". They're unknowns, no one knows them by name. In other words, checkpoint smurfs.
That must be a bitch for the payroll department.

Comparing the most expensive hotel in the world to a local Walmart may tend to distort the "nicer looking" scale. =)
Agreed. I couldn't afford a pair of socks from that hotel.
