It doesn't matter what functionality a device has if the battery dies, and the user experience for apps like Facebook and video streaming apps is far superior on a devoted app that's built from the ground-up to be used on a touchscreen, mobile app. UMPC's are on their way to look and feel a lot more like Android and…

Hahahaha.. I wasn't even kidding when I asked that. I was 100% expecting a snarky reply that pointed out my embarrassing lack of a sense of humor. that's hilarious you were actually being serious. You really need to try out a tablet, you'll love it.

Actually it's not that bad of an idea for the general computer user. I do on-site computer repair and consulting and this is a perfect idea for 90% of my clients. The typical 50+ year old man/woman usually lives alone or only with their significant other and has a terrible time remembering passwords. I can't tell you…

Rhapsody is just as good, if not better, than "Zune Pass" and it's 100% compatible with the iPod Touch and iPhone.

That's been the battle cry of teachers for as long as I can remember, and for the longest time I went along with it because it seemed to make sense, but to be honest I just see it as a cop out now. Parents definitely play a semi-important role in the education of their children between kindergarten and 6-7th grade,…

Of course Thunderbolt will replace Firewire 800 someday, but you won't see widespread adoption for at least another couple of years. In the meantime, they'll continue to implement firewire 800 so people can use the devices they've purchased throughout the years. Speed is important, but the amount of devices that…

Of course this all depends on your budget, but my advice would be to get one, but don't get a totally spec'd out, fully loaded model with the mindset that this is your first MBP, why not go all out.

You're being sarcastic.. right..

"I think most people will go with the product that they feel has the most features at the best price."

"woefully bad tablet interface"

The Atrix? Really? If you got bored of the iPhone, that's fine, more power to you. But from the reviews I've read of the Atrix, it sounds like it's a fairly disappointing phone. From what I've read, everything that makes it unique over similarly spec'd phones, like the fingerprint reader and dock, don't actually work…

Exactly what I came in to write. The iPad was the device Steve wanted to release for decades, but hardware (specifically battery) limitations prevented the basic form factor and size he thought would be ideal. I don't remember the exact timing, but a few years before we heard about the iPhone, the engineers started…

One of my clients has a slide that runs from the first floor hallway all the way down to the bottom floor gaming room, which connects to a full size indoor racquetball court - yeah, it's a badass house.

That's obviously why flying cars will control themselves, and I mean WILL as in they WILL someday come into fruition. Tires are incredibly inefficient, and when reliable levitation is finally discovered and harnessed, it won't make sense for our personal transportation to make contact with the ground.

Is it a smart bet to assume you guys didn't get an invite to this event as well?

Quoting from the infinite masterpiece known as "Starship Troopers":

Check out the Engadget review. The fingerprint reader is unreliable at best, making it useless for a reliable, quick way to unlock your phone, the display looks super crisp but it's hard to see in daylight and the automatic adjustment doesn't "do the trick", the camera produces great results but images have a purplish…
