And that's the last time we heard from him.

Well, then just look at it from the bright side... you get a chance to wipe your device clean, and audit all your apps :D

Yeah, it does work, it just takes A WHILE, or very little. It's a big range. But it also breaks some things, so after you upgrade, you should do a factory reset.

No, don't do this! It breaks things. If you are going to go this route, once you get your update, you would need to reset your phone to factory settings (which I would recommend anyways with any update).

Uhm. I'm pretty sure you're trolling now. The list of apps you have bought is stored in iCloud. You can download all the apps just fine, you won't be charged, as long as you're using the same Apple ID that you bought them with. If you are, then just call Apple! They're friendly and knowledgeable, and they can help you…

Dropbox? Google Contacts? Google Drive? there are plenty of windows in the walled garden's wall.

I will grant you that it is hard to make maps... in 2005, when Google Maps started. This is 2012. If you are going to release a large scale Maps App, it better be 2012 caliber, not 2005 caliber with some 2008 3D.

RIM is going down because they stopped doing things better than everyone else. A long time ago.

Because of Science, that's why.

Uhm... yes, there is an iTunes app. You can buy all your music, videos, whatever straight from your iOS device. All syncing can be done to iCloud. You don't need to connect to iTunes for ANY reason anymore.

There is still a really good small phone out there. The iPhone 4S. Seriously, it's a year old and it still kicks ass.

Steve had better taste in music.

Uhm, why? Do you really need to associate them so you know that papa johns is a pizza place? Why can you just know which pizza ou want and just call them? To be fair, I don't save restaurant contacts anyways. It's easy enough to say Call Pizza Hut and have android or Siri just connect you to the closest one

I actually lol'd. Like, people looking at me weird at the office LOL.

same here. It would have unified the line.

Damn. I wanted to make that joke first.

Well, then what do you expect? If there is a better solution to using iTunes in your iDevices, bypassing the Windows part all together, and choose not to use it, you can't expect it to get better. iCloud and iTunes, used solely from my iPad, is a godsend.

No, that won't work, because you see the Sun is at a consta... wait. I get it. Heheheh.

Dude, it's a joke!
