    Analysts: iPad 2, iPhone 5 Delayed

    I wouldn't be surprised if Apple are having last minute design jitters and the delays are due to the fact that they are not competing in a small pond anymore. Dual cores, Super Amoled plus screens, new faster Android devices, 1080p HD cameras, slicker quicker operating systems, dedicated game...

    iTunes $10,000 Winner Hung Up on Apple's Call

    aaron88_7I doubt anybody would bid that high. Who really would want to buy $10,000 worth of crap on iTunes? Most Appletards don't have that much money to spend anyway and their credit is already maxed out from buying multiple iPhones after each new release.I'm also curious if the winner will...

    Report: MSFT Should Separate Xbox Division

    Shocking... an 'investment firm' (read w b ankers) want to break up a company, these guys use money to make money, they do not create software or hardware or ANYTHING. Why would anyone listen to these people? Go and get a real job, or at least stop publicly voicing your opinions to line your own...

    Motorola Takes Another Swipe at Apple in New Ad

    @ericburnby there were AT LEAST twelve suicides in one month, there were also reports of slave labour conditions BEFORE the suicides in the factory that is known as "iPod city" and the vast majority of the products they produced were for Apple, as well as HP and Dell. Apple's own investigation...

    Motorola Takes Another Swipe at Apple in New Ad

    @ericburnby - When I hear of multiple suicides from the factories of a specific manufacturer, you can rest assured I won't go out and buy even one of their products (let alone two)... I also won't buy a product whose only source of software/games (and generally speaking music, books, magazines...

    Motorola Takes Another Swipe at Apple in New Ad

    Flash was the most requested feature on the iPhone, but instead of listening to their customers, Steve Jobs decided to talk trash about the most used, and best rich media system on the internet. He then went on to ban the compiler Adobe spent years developing three days before they launched it...

    London to Turn 'Every Lamppost' into WiFi Hotspot

    "It will be interesting to see what happens to usage once the Olympic games have finished and everyone has flown home." I believe the population of Greater London is around 12 million, I'm not sure everyone is going to leave after the Olympics!

    Air, Flash Finally Coming to Smartphones

    Actually it is nothing like the analogue to digital transition. There are no plans to transition the services you mention to HTML5 yet. The html5 videos are part of a beta experiment (for UTube at least) and is being used to assess the viability of using it. At present html5 is not widely...

    Facebook Giving Away McAfee to Protect Users

    Facebook will no doubt also get a cut for anyone that pays after the six month period, this move is NOT to protect users, it is a way for them to make money and to promote McAfee.... to pretend otherwise (and for the good of the users no less!) is disingenuous to say the least....

    CES 2010: 3D Eye Solutions and Glasses-Free 3D

    Would love to see this autostereoscopic in action, I can't imagine that it is as good or reliable as the glasses solution but would love to be proved wrong... (it would have been nice if there was a comparison made in the review).

    Sony Reveals SD Cards (R.I.P. Memory Stick?)

    I was just looking into micro sdhc adaptors that can turn them into a pro duo, in fact there is an adaptor that can turn two micro sdhc's into a single pro duo (and still come out much cheaper than the equivalent). Aparently works well in the PSP.....

    Say Hello to Mass Effect 2's Engineer Class

    Yep it looks absolutely awesome... adding more tactical elements to the gun fights is a great thing, (the combat was the weakest part of the original I think)...

    Support for Win 2K, XP SP2 ends July 2010

    Are MS really supposed to continue supporting software they will no longer sell and have superseded (twice) forever... By all means use XP if you want, but it was never sold as software with a lifetime of free updates. Really simple, official support is ending, if that support is important to...
