    If you used your pocket computer for more, you would have that problem too. They are not phones, just pocket computers that happen to also offer a phone app. One of my coworkers has an iphone he charges it every bit as much a I charge my android phone. Using his phone as a flashlight is just as bad. How well did that BBM and email work for you over the past few days?

    How is it that you type so well and yet cannot read?
    The word SAMSUNG is printed right on the front and back of the fucking thing. Are you instead claiming that apple prints that on their ipad?

    Did you hear this nonsense somewhere or did you think of it all yourself after some form of brain damage?

    FIrst-to-File impacts only decisions on who gets a patent when two filings are made at the same time. If you and I both attempt to file a patent on a stone wheel today, but my documents get there first I could get that patent, and it would be quickly overturned since lots of prior art exits.

    That is fanboy cherry picking. Go google tablet PC and check out all the old XP running tablet PCs that looked basically just like an iPad years ago.

    The layman is going to compare then at normal usage distances. Which is a lot closer to 3 feet than 10 feet. How long are your damn arms?

    Apples tablet is a total clone of the old HP Compaq Tablet PC TC1100 without the keyboard. Which slid behind the screen. A silver round cornered tablet.

    We have a massive coastline. Moving fuel and troops to the AK coastline would probably cost near as much as Afghanistan. There are no roads, you would have to build them.

    The Mexican border is similar, lots of it is just desert, you could not find enough troops to fill such boot camps. The stuff you are talking about doing would cripple the US economy.

    Compare the size of those nations and who their neighbors are.
    We have more uninhabited coastline in AK than the whole border of Israel.

    Then you suck at economics, no surprise considering how many small businesses fail.

    You should charge what the market will pay, this has no relation to costs. Yes, I do in fact have real world business experience as a contractor.

    There is no reasonable way to seal US borders.
    There are 12,034 km of land boarders and 19,924 km of coastline.

    Even if our entire military people was stationed at the borders smugglers could still fly over or tunnel under. Much of this border is in areas that are totally or nearly uninhabited, costs to feed and transport this border protection force would be on the scale of a major war. You would also have to have these people inspect every container that comes into US ports. 7 million containers come into this nation by sea every year. You would also need to throughly inspect every rail-car and tractor-tailer that crosses a border.

    Sealing the borders would totally destroy the US economy and people would starve because of it.

    Our application does have a nice friendly and appealing interface. The DB is a big boys toy. Not something for the users to play with. If you don't want to learn how to use it, you get what you deserve.
