Unfortunately we're quite a ways I think from completely eliminating physical cables. Yes we should be heading there, but until there is some widely available, simple to setup, standard wireless solution to connecting devices to a computer, it won't happen. Bluetooth could, but its not extremely efficient or on many…

Yes its better. And with a 19 pin connector it will still be better. Here's a good article explaining how it works and why dropping to a smaller 19 pin connector won't really disrupt capabilities of the connector:

#1 and #3, texting should be fine. Maybe for #3 if its a close friend and benefits have come into play, a phone call or discussion may be needed depending on how badly you want to keep the rest of the friendship intact.

Why is there never any rum?

Superman definitely doesn't need any more origin stories being made into a movie for a LONG time. Between 10 years of Smallville, the other Superman movies, the cartoons, and culture in general, if someone doesn't at least get the gist of Superman's story at this point, they probably aren't going to see the movie…

The avatar pics need to be made bigger (for mobile touch interface at least) and not faded. Something needs to be done about handling avatars with nearly all white. They are hard to see sometimes which could lead to missing some comments. Maybe a drop shadow or a black border around them?

As a smoker myself, I agree there is much more than just the chemical dependence, and while there are still behavioral habit to change, removing the chemical dependence would make it that much easier to break those behaviors than trying to change your habits while having a nic-fit from hell.

Me and my visual effects lab group did this in college only with video. Basically took stationary video of a location for about 10 seconds. Then run it through an algorithm to average out all of the pixels. Anything moving went away.

Or they'll kill us

Is that like how someone in the 70s or 80s said the most we'll ever need is 1 MB RAM (or something to that effect)

Using your smart phone makes you forget how to count?

Really? I assumed this was going in the next iPhone the second they announced Passbook. Seemed pretty obvious without all the extra analysis and investigation. Why would you add something like Passbook into your phone's OS without NFC going into the next one?

Was going to say the same thing. Now I'm trying to figure out why this answer isn't obvious to these so called scientists.

So Apple is "bad" to customers customers by not updating their 2 generation old phone hardware (by the time it comes out at least) with EVERY new feature in a new OS version for free, even though they are for the newer generations? The iPhone 4 is two years old. Its been generally accepted as a standard that you…

Personally I thought the Season 3 finale was amazing. Turned the show on its head with the surprise flash-forward. Before then, pretty much everyone was assuming the end of the show would be them getting off the island and suddenly you find out that that event is really only the half-way mark of the story. Whether…

Does the surface have potential...YES! I'm what a lot of people would call an apple fan-boy but honestly this looks interesting. Definitely what Microsoft needed to do: show they can innovate too and come up with something cool.

To be fair, Batman and Spider-man have many decades of possible source material to be made into several movies in many different ways, and we aren't even close to exhausting all the possibilities from just that, let alone new stories. Rebooting those franchises still gets you new stories. In those situations I'm…

"heavily crippled" might be a bit strong for an OS that still does the same as it always did, just not getting some of the new stuff (for free btw)

No, the 4S has a better one than the 4 has. 4's top is 7.2 MBPS 4S's is 14.4

not software, but hardware...iphone 4: 7.2 HSDPA...iphone 4S: 14.4 HSDPA...at least my guess
