@Jonathan Strange: They've often announced products on Tuesday or Thursday and had them in stores by the weekend.

@tad604: I imagine the C, C++ or Objective C requirement is because they run closer to the metal, as it were. And in certain scenarios if you are prepared to put the time in, you will always get better performance out from C code than stuff running via a VM like Dalvik.

@lvlln: Windows 7 doesn't support Coda, Omni Graffle, Pixlemator. So I'm out. Sorry.

iPad + higher density screen with less reflection + MobileMe./iWork.com on steroids so getting stuff on and off isn't a hassle.

@ctfeet: I wonder is red V know quite what the demand is going to be like. At the launch they talked about scale, all the testing they do, their network expertise etc. etc.

@LolpantsofArabia: Very good points. The accessories one is constantly missed, but a very real issue for consumers.

@Vondruke: It's ok. Everyone judges you as well.

@AssuntaPabsy: Articles like this is why I love Jizmodo.

@MacJedi: I was going to write the same thing. As always someone got in before me.

Yes!

@RaindropBebop: It might not be as bad as people make out, but it is still a usability no no.

@RaindropBebop: OS X was heavy on transparency and translucency. Like Aero.

@Almightywhacko: I agree there is a difference between the home screen of the two devices. Honeycomb has widgets and multiple desktops.

@Walternate: When have all the iOS improvements only been given to the latest hardware?

@RaindropBebop: The problem with putting items in a hidden menu is that while it results in a "clean" UI the discoverability factor for new users is about zero.

@Philip.J.Fry: I'd wait and see before questioning Apple's ability to match what Google is doing.

@Almightywhacko: a blending of mobile and desktop OS elements that create a functional and familiar environment that takes advantage of the larger screen size.

@JDickson87: The core OS (4.2) is the same and they do tell you version numbers.
