  1. Re:This is clearly a valid patent on Google Patents Telling Time · · Score: 1

    It is from 2007. Google has been a big player in the patent game since they opened their doors.

    Do you KNOW they have not made people license the "technology".

  3. Re:General Purpose Device... on How Apple Is Beating Nintendo At Its Own Game · · Score: 1

    The iPhone has a touchscreen,accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, Bluetooth and Wifi. Controllers aren't really an issue. Nintendo could quite easily make a $50 cass that made an iPhone work exactly like a DS (with considerably more power).

  4. Re:More important than oil on Wall Street: Software More Valuable Than Oil · · Score: 1

    You do know Wpple invented the PDA? Before the term even existed. The first known public use of the term was John Sculley of Apple. He used it a few years after Apple had invented the category. All you people with your Apple never invented anything should just technology forums. You have no understanding of the history so you continuously make stupid statements.

    Exxon XOM was down 4.05% today and Apple AAPL,was down 2.25%

    If what you said were true, Apple could not have passed Exxon in market cap...

  6. Re:It has been seen before on Google Pulls Plug On Programming For the Masses · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Google has not released much if any of their failed projects.

    They claim to be here, but we should wait and see since their track record on promises is pretty dismal.

    The problem is not anominity, the problem is shallow people that care about irrelevant data.

  10. Re:These patent lawsuits are getting out of hand. on Apple Sued Over OS X Quick Boot · · Score: 1

    Started what? Apple gets sued by patent trolls continuously and has for decades. Apple defends IP used in shipping products. There is more then a slight difference.

    Janeway had the best room, Picard should feel cheated. All she did was get lost.

    It does offer a glimpse into the reality behind Android market share. 2 of the 4 largest manufacturers, at least for US users, lost money last quarter.

    Why do people keep referring to these long distance profit paranoia when Skypemand countless other VOIP programs have been in the Appmstore for years and Apple went outofmtheir way to make them work better in iOS 4.

    Really would not kill you morons to do a 5 second google search. Of course, that would shatter your paranoid fantasy world.

    You have never owned an iPone. You are simply spouting BS you have read on Internet forums. Stopping referring to yourself as a geek. You have neither the technical nor analytical ability to claim that title.

    And IOs is the choice for App developers because those Android phones don't in fact all run the same software.

  17. Re:Having to jail break your own freaking phone on Guide To Building a Cable That Improves iOS Exploits · · Score: 1

    What's truly amazing is that you would make such a wild proclomatiom without any basis in reality...

    Skype? Really? This is our example? Skype and other VoIP programs have run on iOS for years. In 4.0 Apple added special hooks to the OS just for VoIP calls to run I'm the background so you can use those free calls while doing other stuff. Clearly preventing Skype is what this is all about.

    Did you even bother to try and have an informed opinion?

    The PDA...you know the thing all these smart phones are based on. It appears they were fairly innovative in the tablet space too. You may have noticed the smartphone industry changed a bit with the iPhone too..
