geez. I didn't realize you are able to get the iPhone 5 today. Did the magical fairy brings yours for you to review, because I have seen exactly *ZERO* reviews out there.
Calling others names just because they like something that is different from you...
Only you know what is correct and only you know what is the best, right? Everyone should just listen to you, and the world would be a better place, wouldn't it?
Err, you do realize Microsoft created the MS-DOS FAT right? Why should Microsoft give it away for free? Has the FAT/MS-DOS format been declared an essential standard, subject to FRAND?
I don't remember seeing Microsoft asking to ban all Google/Motorola devices. You have a URL handy?
Also, I don't remember Amazon ever marketing the Kindle Fire as an Android device, so I don't know why you would say that it fragments the Android market.
I'm surprised to find out Google actually put a clause in there forbidding their current android phone makers to make phones for other operating systems (that may run a jvm (that can run a dalvik app))
you should double check your lmgtfy link - the first page is full of people talking about amazon's kill switch and nothing about the author issue. Also, you should note that I never claimed the author who packaged it for distribution in Canada is the real author. All I said was that it was published legally in Canada (because the copyright expired in Canada).
Slashdot Mirror
So, it's iOS vs Nexus Android, and iOS vs non-Nexus Android now? You'll be sure to let us know in other iOS vs Android discussions, right?
And what does the iOS vs Nexus marketshare look like today?
Err, did you even read the summary...? How were you supposed to opt out on the iPhone, which is what got Google into trouble...
seriously? you call a 10-15 minutes hands on with a new device a "review" ?
A preview, maybe. A review? Hell no.

so, after a horrible experience with an android phone, your thinking is that another android phone will be better.
I find that... curious.
just curious, how often do you get security or system updates?
uh, how many vendors make the Galaxy S III?
And the galaxy's camera is better than the iPhone 4S Or the iPhone 5? Not according to all the reviews I've seen.
how often do you build your own apps? I just built my first app last friday - Hello World! And deploying it to my iphone wasn't too difficult...

Oh my. Apparently calling Android fanbois is now a bad thing to do on /.
Or is pointing out they can't tell the difference between FRAND and non-FRAND patents the wrong thing to say?
Android fanbois have difficulty understanding the difference between FRAND and non-FRAND patents.

you really don't know what you are talking about, do you?
Google just tried to ban XBox 360 using standard required FRAND patents. Who says Google is not abusing patents?
Kindle can run google appstore apps just fine, you just have to install a set of libraries.
much like how aliyun never advertises itself as android, you mean...?
I wish I have mod points :) Funniest comment in this thread.
Like how Samsung is learning how to make a dual core A15 properly so that they can next make it for their own phones?
I'm surprised to find out Google actually put a clause in there forbidding their current android phone makers to make phones for other operating systems (that may run a jvm (that can run a dalvik app))
errr, who's asking Google to support this phone or this copycat OS?
Errr, isn't that what Amazon did?
forgive me. For a second, I thought you weren't an idiot, and was talking about the reverse swastika, which was a buddhist/hindu religious symbol.
If you *were* talking about the swastika - the Nazi symbol, then you're a bigger asshole and idiot than I thought.
Why would India want a swastika laden phone?
Or did you perhaps mean http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauwastika
Apparently the old addage about a little knowledge being dangerous is true.
since when did Maps on the iPhone have streetview?
since when did Apple have audio turn-by-turn?
pffft. you are back at +5.
Try criticizing android. Get sent to -1 hell almost immediately.
Gee, you mean a canadian person publishing in Canada and offering it for sale in Canada had to obey US laws? Incredible.
