We don't want to see HTC sue Apple, but we are happy to see them defend themselves. My guess is they want Apple to drop their lawsuit, and to do this, they have to prove that they have patents being violated as well. Google didn't give them a bunch of guns, Google gave them some shields.

WidgetLocker won't work with CM7 lockscreen gestures. Shame.

Giz should do a study on the best days/times to post things. I'd like to know that information for maximum effectiveness on my trolling.

I'm not a republican. Republicans are just as bad as Democrats. There is literally no difference between the two in my mind.

Have you some proof that it isn't the exact message of their findings? Or the findings of thousands of other scientists?

when will people realize that they are not gizmodo's customers , they are their product, gizmodo sells your attention and information to companies . Dont people wonder how gizmodo got so big when all their "consumer" products are free to use?

I wasn't going to go to this panel and now I am because I read this news.

Why is Boat Browser not mentioned? I've used all the browsers and Boat is by far the best experience especially when it comes to doing basic things like quickly opening a new page in a tab, opening tabs in background, changing browser user agent.

From the last few years tech news I've read, I've seen plenty of cases where Apple sued the other company first, but I don't think I've seen Apple get sued first. Not saying it hasn't happened, just that I haven't seen it.

We can get Comcast Cable, Verizon (Frontier) FiOS, DirecTV, or Dish Network, and I seriously doubt prices are any better where I live. I guess it'll take more local competition around the country for any sort of price war to begin.

Google isn't suing anyone right now. How exactly does buying 17,000 patents to protect themselves from Apple/Microsoft suing everyone make them evil?
