Corporate personhood has been an issue for a long time. Personhood or not, I still think the judges made the right choice in this case. People know the risks, it's a legal product, let them have at it.

I think you have your right/left mixed up.

How is a Sonos not wireless?

A bendable screen is only good if everything else inside the phone bends too...

No...you don't. I love listening to music, and I've found fantastic speakers that aren't gigantic loudspeakers. Again, my house is not a concert hall, and I'm not going to try to make it on for some sort of audiophile elitist nonsense. Sonos produces great sound, without background noise. So do several other choices.…

A giant receiver and giant loudspeakers aren't always options, and there are plenty of wireless speakers that produce great sound. My house is not a concert hall, I'm not going to notice or be disappointed by a set of speakers just because they aren't gigantic and heavy. I don't need to show off my audio system as if…

For the price, the Sonos 3 series seems like a much better purchase.

Sonos.

Sure seemed like the implication you've been trying to make. Android is good on it's own merits, and Apple is only good cause it's "cool" and "popular"?

It wasn't the first, but it was easily the best at the time. Even with a few missing features. I used several WinMo phones, a sidekick, and other smartphones prior to the iPhone, and the iPhone, while lacking some features, was still better than all of them in how it handled what it did do. Also, saying the iPad (or…

Apple turned the smartphone industry on it's head when it came out with the iPhone. The only people that can possibly dispute Apple's affect on the design and widespread adoption of smartphones live under a rock. Yes, MS, RIM, and Nokia had smartphones before the iPhone, but the iPhone made smartphones attractive to…

How many times are you going to copy/paste this stupid toast thing?

Harm? Oh, you mean by creating the market that Android now thrives in? Or harming the tablet market by actually making it a viable industry? Yeah. Such harmful stuff on Apple's part. Shame on them.

Read the patent, it relates specifically to how the iOS lockscreen works, not any sliding motion.

It's only a common everyday action because Apple was so successful in changing out smartphone OSes are designed. There was no "Slide to Unlock" feature prior to the first iPhone.

You may not need official anything. But you're delusional if you think any significant portion of Android users are tech savvy, like you. I know so many people with Android phones that don't even know that they can download apps through the market. There is a reason that, even though Android has marketshare numbers…

Right, like any current Android phones will get the upgrade.

But, as for this article, and it's claim that the Fire will completely change the media streaming business, there is no way that a device with no ability to output to larger screens will succeed at replacing something like the iPad or Xoom for movie/TV consumption. People don't, as a whole, want to sit around watching…

As an ebook reader, fine, but at 7", I don't really see it being much of a success in terms of video or media consumption. I'll watch video on my phone in a pinch, but at times, even my iPad seems small sometimes. And with 0 options for video out on the Fire, I don't really see it changing the video world like the…
