As a Fuelband v1 owner, they have forever lost my patronage by flat-out lying about their Android support.

No android support, no purchase. Looking at fitbit and jawbone currently.

I've tried over 3 brands with my tv's and Panasonic has always been my favorite :[ Maybe it's just luck but they've lasted me quite a long time as well.

This is the most American superpower I've ever heard of.

Well...since it's a medical issue, your boss's legal department probably cares.

My driver's license and passport don't report their location to cell towers every few seconds. My phone does. And now my phone potentially can say "I was here. Oh, and my owner, he unlocked me with his thumbprint while I was here, too."

Because blah blah blah apple is great they never lie blah blah blah overreactionary blah blah blah tin foil hat.

Second, the government can't get at your fingerprint. That's partly because the iPhone stores all fingerprint data on its secure chip and only sends a message to websites or apps stating that the two prints match, not actual proof that they do, so there's no outgoing sensitive information (unless you can intercept and…

While this is an interesting and well - written article, in many of these cases it's difficult to discern between choice for a reason, and choice due to fanboyism. It's not rational to say "In order to be rational (ie, not subject to these fallacies) one must have one of each, or perhaps a completely diverse portfolio…

You sir/madam have earned my respect.

Sooth. I remember on this very board about how the iPhone "real metal" case was ssssooooo much better than the plastic everyone else uses. How the metal was sssoooo good at resisting damage, etc... etc... etc...

you are kidding me. All you do is hate on phones with plastic but as soon as Apple puts plastic on theirs its God's gift to iFanboys?

Android fragmentation is blown WAY out of proportion. Yes the Moto X will surely get Kit Kat. It won't be the first phone on the block with Kit Kat (that will be the Nexuses), but given that Moto is under Google and the Moto skin is the closest to stock, I would put money that the X is the first non-Nexus/non-GPE…

If I could thumbs down or anti-star you i-saw-it-on-reddit-first morons, I totally would.

sure was! it's right there in the post!

Android because it's actually readable during refresh.

It's become second nature for me to swipe down to refresh. When I get to my doctor's office too early I swiped down on the receptionist a few times to see if there was now availability. I now have a restraining order.
