    Apple's Next iPhone Needs More Megapixels

    I do wonder why neither Apple nor Samsung has tried to match the Lumia 1020's camera (or even the 1520's camera)?

    Windows 10 (Finally) Gives Power to the People

    I'm not sure if Microsoft actually "learned" their lesson. With Vista, Microsoft tried to force-feed customers, OEMs, etc, and got burned, while they listened to feedback for Windows 7. They force-fed everyone with Windows 8 and now they're listening with 10. I'm wondering if they're going to...

    Windows Phone 8 Gets Official Pandora App

    As much as I love Windows Phone, Microsoft moves WAY too slow for a 21st century computer. Somebody needs to sit everyone down at Microsoft and say "Release in three months, or you're out of a job." "Release any product that is not ABOVE the competition, and you're gone! No more 'me too'!"...

    Windows 8 Increased Its Market Share in December

    The Surface can be compared to the PlayStation 3 at launch (the 60 GB model was $599 at the time). Price was the #1 thing stopping adoption. Lower the price, and then we'll talk.

    Android Dev Claims Piracy Pushed It To Offer App Free

    IndignantSkepticI've been noticing for a long time now that the pro-piracy comments tend to get lots of thumbs up and the anti-piracy comments tend to get lots of thumbs down on this site. It's kind of a fascinating phenomenon. It seemed fascinating to me at first until I thought about the...

    Android Dev Claims Piracy Pushed It To Offer App Free

    the_krasnoI pirated a lot of games. My steam game library has over 200 titles. I buy the things I want, I pirate the things I want to check out. I know the person that said "looks like Tom's is a haven for pirates" got voted down, but when you have statements like the above that get voted up 6...

    Android Dev Claims Piracy Pushed It To Offer App Free

    This is a longshot, but what could very well happen is that developers will simply go toward Apple and Microsoft (assuming that Windows 8 takes off, but that's yet to be determined). This is also assuming that Android app piracy is as "rampant" as this developer says it is. Bottom line: if...

    Windows Phone Stuck with 4 Percent Market Share in 2012

    ejb222Actually Metro is the reason for WP7 and WP8. Its not being forced to Desktops...it was the plan all along...one integrated system. And the dismay of the power users is nothing more than childish. Read their comments. The blatant 'this sucks" attitude is never backed by any reasoning or...

    Windows Phone Stuck with 4 Percent Market Share in 2012

    I think that WP7's poor market share is the biggest reason why Metro is being forced to the Desktop, much to the dismay of many seasoned Windows PC power users...

    Newly Appointed Yahoo! CEO Confirms She's Pregnant

    Good for her! Unfortunately many women end up having problems finding jobs during pregnancy. Yes, in the U.S. discrimination against pregnancy is illegal, but of course the potential employer can come up with a ton of other excuses like "oh, she wasn't right for the job" or "she was...
