I have to agree. I also had Palm and WinMo devices that were way more cool than the Apple function particularly because they used a stylus select select the phone number and then I could save it or send it to the dialer. It was mega easy to use. Android and Apple both feel like a cludge compared to WinMo and PalmOS.

Sprint will not be turning Carrier IQ back on on my Epic 4G Touch as I personally nuked Carrier IQ last night with the last EL13 Firmware. No more Carrier IQ on me.

Aren't Pansies an extremely hearty flower that you plant in the fall, they survive the winter and then bloom again in the early spring to die by mid June???

Without an external volume rocker, this thing is as useless as the first iPod Touch. No amount of software can fix this issue.

More important, Google is trying to save Hanger One at Moffett Field. That structure is one hell of a landmark in Mountain View.

DoggCatcher and downloading podcasts can rack up the downloads if you do not pay attention.

My plea to those that read the above post is "please don't by this kind of crap" and if you are interesed in photography as a hobby, "please invest in nice lenses" as it is the lens that captures the light. I do not regret my investment in good glass like my EF 85mm f1.8 USM or my EF 35mm F/1.4L. Note I said "good"…

This proves the TSA is nothing but a bunch of mindless drones. See Something Say Something. Whether it is real or not.

This review make me glad I got the Galaxy SII and plan to wait for an ICS tablet. I expect better hardware for $750.00.

First, the "report" was not official and highly redacted. Second, how will acquiring T-Mo help AT&T provide bandwidth to rural areas when T-Mo esentially has no service in the rural parts of the nation?

A. The license plate scanning is being used today by many agencies. And even though most localities park and scan tags of passing motorists, some state agencies scan tags of cars that they pass (or pass them) on the highway. The only problem is the current cameras add about 60 pounds to the rear decklid of the car.

I think the MTA is getting a pretty sweet deal. Apple is paying approximately 4X the rent as other tenants in the facility and most commuters will be window shoppers and probably not purchase many MacBooks or iMacs as you might think.

Sensor size does not dictate the type of photography. If Crop sensors were better for action photography, then Canon would not have created their latest camera, the 1D X which has an 18MP full frame sensor for sports and wildlife photographers.

If you have a 5D Mark II, you can take a 50% crop of a raw image and still have enough pixel density to generate a better image than an 8MP 20D raw file.

Ditto. I mapped my Blackberry number to my Google Voice and kept my Android phone independent.

When I managed a company that supplied contract labor, cordless drills were indispensible. We used them all the time and had no issues. For personal use, I may only use the cordless drill 6-9 times a year on projects around the house. After 2 years or 18 projects, I have a drill that has a battery that is useless. …

With cell phone tracking and hacking devices commercially available at any "spy" shop in the US that is sufficient enough to look through the security of any modern GSM phone, why would we think that Iran and Hezbollah would not have access to this stuff.

I have to concur on the corded tool vs. cordless option. For around the house where (in my case) I am always within 25 ft. of an outlet, corded drills (along with saws, sanders, Dremels, etc) are much more powerful and do not need to have battery packs replaced. For as often as I use a drill/dremel (5 times a year)…

Best damn tool for demolition. Period.

Compared to 25 years ago, there is no excuse for not having a good, complete set of hand/mechanics tools to fix almost anything in the house. For example, I spent $100.00 on a variety of tools (including a 15 piece Kobalt pliers kit and set of adjustable wrenches) on top of the $125.00 cost of parts to add a water…
