Single point of failure. That's the problem with these kind of closed services.

Guys. I'm disappointed. Usually when giz uses that pic by now you guys would have a complete listing of the actress, movie, and scene number ;)

Unfortunately, given the numerous browsers available to Android tablets and the ability to switch most of them to desktop mode instead of mobile mode these statistics are about as deterministic of Tablet OS use as a ground hogs shadow determining the weather.

I love my Xoom.

Quick! Hide Nessy!

No thanks. I'm good.

Code monkey is intrigued.

I think your confusing this with the Apple app store.

AC boats are awesome and this girl is no exception.

I just put planned obsolescence into google and the first auto look up to pop up was "planned obsolescence apple". Can't say I'm surprised.

Dude, Jesus, just give it up man. Why do you feel the need to justify the iPhones size. This is, and always will be, a personal preference issue. Some people like the 3.5, some people like the extra real-estate of a slightly larger phone. Some are Android guys, some iOS. I've heard complaints from both camps…

Criticize the man for poor timing and a lack of tact, but not for what he said. I feel very much the same way. The day Jobs retired was a happy day, the day he passed a very sad one. You can disagree with someone, even passionately so, while still respecting them.

"As Seen on YouTube". I hope Google is getting a cut of this. At least then I can justify the hysterical insanity in the name of capitalism.

I'll give Siri this much potential credit:

ROFL. My mothers distaste for Apple products is honestly driven by me, but maybe that's another explanation.

It's kinda too bad. I liked being different from the other guys, and when I was in range of the one WiMAX tower we have in time the speed was awesome. Oh well, by the time they get this pushed out I'll be ready to upgrade anyway.

Ya, a lot of the book probably is about his professional achievements. But I suspect that Steve was the kind of guy that defined himself through his work, so that kinda makes sense.

That's Lisa, for whom the computer was allegedly named after, even though at the time Jobs was still denying he was the father. I suspect that when Jobs said he had his kids in mind, it was for her most of all. Same age as me, 78 was a hell of a year ;)

That 3D grid of icons tilt thing has started to pop up in different places, like the google music app for example. It's a neat effect, adds some wow factor to the UI, but doesn't really functionally accomplish anything. Maybe the Apple boys will like it.

I can see them possibly removing the default, but I'm sure you can put the widget back if you want.
