Larger Sensor and Optical Zoom just don't mix well with a phone size body. Bigger sensor and longer shooting range requires a larger body. Even if the zoom lens can be retracted, spaces are needed to house the retracted lens. It's just physics. So, unless an entirely new way to build a camera becomes economically…

If these guys bought any kind of insurances, they should be charged with a higher premium/deductible in the future.

Turn it into an Android tablet. If you don't know and don't want to go the DIY route, you can get a SD card from: http://n2acards.com/ Some people would say that N2A is a scam (since they are basically just offering a bootable CyanogenMod SD card) but they make the process easier for the less tech-savvy people.

>> you're basically screwed if it decides it doesn't like you, and your idea.

Well, I can tell you that "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" (the regime lead by Hong Xiuquan) had almost no meaningful influence to most if not all Chinese. If anything, Communist Chinese officials often praise the "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" because a lot of things THK did were also promoted by the CCP. The state TV station…

>> But when emails arrived in droves repeating the same naughty phenomena, you have to wonder why a company whose rep is as sterling as Apple's seems to have such a pattern of internal havoc.

I just have one rule — don't make a deal the day you hear the sales pitch. I saw my aunt walk right into a sales trap in front of my eyes when she bought her last car. I was with her all the times until the last minute, when I had to leave early. Before I left, we've talked the sales person into giving us a great…

But, "Not being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to insanity." Just look at our congress. They surely don't take reality into account when they insist on "believing" in their own belief.

I always have a questions. In a zero-gravity environment, what happens to the internal organs of a human? Like, do our bladder floating like some jello inside the body?

I cannot agree more with you. There are gangs that are so smart that you rarely heard of them, and there are those even your great grandmother knows what they do (put it simply, they "advertise" what they do) — nothing can help those poor guys. Sooner or later, they will be taken down — with or without the help of…

You don't need a microphone to answer a call. Just download an app that automatically answers a call in speaker mode — your phone has a microphone!

I don't think you can define "quality". A lot of people hates Samsung using plastic as the main material for their smartphone cases. To them, plastic = low quality. But there are people like me, who couldn't stand for metallic materials or glasses. There are no particular reasons (may be it's the creepy feeling I have…

People, they are analysts. What would you do if a stock of many your clients hold suddenly lose a large portion of its value? Connect the dots, now?

Sales of Amazon begins to slow down after today/this week traditionally. It's probably Amazon trying to squeeze as many sales as possible. Keep in mind, Amazon doesn't want you to buy a Kindle only — once you are on their site, you might buy other things as well. What's the best way to lure people to their site?…

I wonder what people would say to you (the author), when it turns out T-mobile is only offering the iPad. Look, you might be correct, but there may be a reason why they only said "Apple products".

I doubt it would work with my gloves — it's leather with lining.

Well, there can only be 2 reasons: 1) You bought some really bad tea; 2) You are a rare few who can't enjoy tea. For #1, you just need to find better tea. For #2, sadly, no one could help you — some people just aren't sensitive to certain taste, and you might be one who isn't sensitive to the taste of tea.

I have to correct you — this ain't a cellphone ... this is a cellphone CASE! If you got your iPhone subsidized, chances are you paid less for your phone than this case.

Mind bottling ... why would we want to shut down an account if our enemy choose to broadcast its action online. We spend billions of dollars trying to spy on them, and we are now getting it for free. We should shut down Ted Poe's Twitter account instead, because if young people in the US follow him and begin to think…
