7 million represents 1.4% of the half a billion iOS devices out there. I think some people need to check their perspective before they get excited about these things and start making sweeping statements about this indicating anything whatsoever.

What a ridiculous thing to whine about. Instapaper man must be new to writing software for a modern OS. It's a total duh! Nobody should be using tmp and cache folders for anything which isn't disposable. They need to make their minds up what's important and what's not.

Cringe. Somebody had to be the geek that said it. The sad thing is, there are kids now that won't have seen Star Trek TNG, etc. So they'll think you're old for writing this article.

This sounds like media hype nonsense. The aircraft does not rely on an external computer to sound an alarm when the flaps and slats are retracted prior to take off. It has an in-cockpit alarm for that. If it doesn't sound it's because it was either faulty or the pilot disengaged the fuse for it...

I don't lose signal with my Nokia E71. I cannot recreate what that video depicts.
