I'm disappointed. I use uTorrent, mostly due to the truly excellent Android remote app. I'd be happy to buy a paid version; I'd probably even buy a paid desktop and mobile version. But if they start serving unavoidable ads, I'll be off to ad-free inferior products.

I think they come off as *really* patronizing... as if Apple is saying "let us show you how to computer." I don't know if it's expectations due to Apple's earlier stuff, or I'm just more cognizant of them because it's a product I'm interested in, but I actively abhor the ads.

This is precisely the way this story should be covered. (I am 100% sincere).

Agree. My (brief) experience with ICS on a 4" screen felt like trying to manage a stacked stamp collection.

I was incredibly hesitant to move to a 4.8" screen (SGSIII), especially after being quite happy with the 4" my SGS4G afforded, but after an hour of owning the SIII, I wouldn't consider moving to the smaller size.

I like the 1Weather widget best for Android, but I'd buy Solar immediately if it were available.

I see Spotify premium as paying for service access: it's the difference between buying a movie on iTunes (which I never would) and watching a movie on Netflix Instant (which I also subscribe to.) I'm paying for the access and convenience, not the media itself.

"Hipsters" are just geeks/nerds with fashion sense and a sex life, so I'll take blame for that.

I refuse to pay for a digital copy of music. Period.

Being fair, most anyone with the "chops" to know what they're doing *to* install this know what they're doing *by* installing it.

Even if we give BB the benefit of the doubt, and assume that BBOS10 is the greatest mobile OS of all time, it's still not enough. They're still selling underpowered hardware no one is clamoring for, and their version of the App Store is still comparatively desolate.

Personally, I find this idea of "cinemagraphs as art" to ridiculously pretentious. Especially given the situations and sentiments in which .GIFs are generally employed. I don't mean any disrespect to the author, I understand this line of thinking is a "thing" now; it just rubs me the wrong way.

Spotify, given it's handling of local files, has allowed me to ditch iTunes entirely. That, and the superb mobile app, are enough for me to continue to happily shell out the $10/mo.

Make that display a widget, and take my $5.

I just want to see it on the "big"existing phones (One series / SIII) by Thanksgiving.

I haven't pirated a single album since I became a Spotify Premium subscriber in December. I don't have any sort of moral objections; it's just not worth my time and effort to track down an album, download it, and then transfer it to my mobile device of choice. As a Premium subscriber, I can store a number albums…

What will kill this phone is apps. Either it's an Android l, like say "FACEBLUR" or "FACEWIZ", or it's own mobile OS. And if it is its own mobile OS, what's the motivation for developers to come to the platform, and what's FB's motivation for allowing apps that push/consume content away from FB? Much like Apple's…

So 4" displays have become inexpensive enough for Apple to maintain their massive margins?

The jaded part of me suspects that this is phase one of Verizon "pulling a Comcast". They'll make data itself more expensive, but exclude *their* pay services from counting against your data. It wasn't too long ago that they were charging a monthly premium for VZW Navigator.

For the life of me, I don't understand the logic of putting out a range of phones, only to have each phone exclusive to a particular carrier. It's as if a clothing store only had Ls at one location, Ms at another, etc etc. Looking at you, HTC.
