Hey, Gizmodo, what happened to your hard-and-fast rule about not covering Kickstarter projects? Not so hard-and-fast when you can gratuitously slam Apple in the process, eh? Well, looks like you should have stuck with hard-and-fast, because you just got burned when you took it soft and slow.

Nobody (nobody other than Brent Caswell, anyway). I've read a lot of asinine putdowns of iOS and the iPhone, but I've never heard even the lamest flame-baiter refer to it as "slow" before. I stopped reading after that sentence, since it completely negated whatever credibility he might otherwise have had.

Apparently no one at Grand Central Terminal knows who Brian Williams is, either. At least when Tim Cook got to the Apple Store, everybody there knew who he was.

I see no advantage to separating the iTunes Store from iTunes. It makes sense on a handheld device with limited screen real estate to favor single-purpose apps, but on a desktop computer, having two programs is a waste when a single button-press essentially transforms the iTunes player app into the iTunes Store app.…

The very fact that all of these pictures were taken with the iPhone lying on a rough stone surface tells me everything I need to know about what the author defines as "normal use."

For the iPhone, my favorites are SoundHound (for figuring out what song is playing on the radio), and Guitar Toolkit (guitar tuner, metronome, and chord charts). For both the iPhone and iPad, Apple's Remote app (for controlling iTunes and Apple TV) and AmpliTube (effects processor and digital recorder). For just the…

The second-biggest drawer should be 340mm squared, not 320.

This Is Officially the Dumbest Article Gizmodo Has Ever Come Up With

I like the stitching. In fact, I wish Apple would ensconce all of OS X in faux leather trim so that Sam's head would explode, and we'd be spared more whiny articles like this one from the self-appointed arbiter of cool.

I know it's a temptation to get a kid a "kid-sized" instrument, and it can make some sense in the case of, say, a 3/4 cello, but no kid should be learning the piano on a severely truncated keyboard with less than full-sized keys. I've seen three-year-olds play Chopin (prodigies, but still), so it's not like a real…

The Magic Mouse is great; I absolutely love mine. Apple doesn't sell a version for the PC, but they did make a PC driver for it that runs in Boot Camp which can be extracted and installed on a standard PC (Google is your friend).

No one on the other side who posts that quote understands the difference between an idea and the implementation of an idea. Not one.
