So true about Apple.

I own an iPod Touch 4 Gen and recently purchased a Nexus 7 and I love both. They both have their pluses and minuses. Best is for you to find out which is best that will meet your needs. Wish it was a one size fits all like a sock but apparently that is not the case. I would purchase an iPad Mini if it comes with a retinal display or the iPad 5 which will definitely come next year where it would be lighter and thinner.
Hello there,
I'm not a fan of Apple or Google for that matter but it's known that neither did Google or Microsoft or Oracle for that matter. Android/Samsung stole from Apple, Apple stole from Xerox, Microsoft stole from Apple and Oracle stole from IBM.
I'll give Jobs his credit that he was able to create an environment where these devices definately created synergies.
Happy holidays
Goodguy
I guess every car maker can be criticized as they only innovate, same as airplane manufacturers. Let's not forget the tire companies-they after all did not invent the wheel. Lol.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Merry Christmas everyone.
This is going to piss off many folks once again.

If this is true come March better to be patient then. I always knew one day Apple is going to make a much thinner version of the full iPad. I find the iPad Mini to be good but not out standing namely it is the small version of the iPad 2. Now come the iPad 5 in March with the lightness of the 2 then maybe I would be inclined to pick one up. Not now. That darn iPad is too damn heavy to hold. Plus the Mini is not retinal display. Guess in this case the smart move is to wait.
Plus I am personally happy with my Nexus 7. Android maybe lacking in quality apps but I really like the intuitive personal customization of the operating system.

I agree - his genius was in marketing but when a Jobs fan lamented that the US had lost an inventor at par with Thomas Edison and I corrected him, I don't think denying the existence of God to the pope would have been as devastating.
And Samsung won't piss off anyone when they release the Galaxy S IV with a rumored thinner phone and much better display?
Sorry but constant progress (usually at a neck break speed) is a part of consumer tech.
Or a Note with a 6" screen :Eek:
Tang will like that

There's a point at which this race to a thinner phone seems a tad ludicrous. I know Samsung & Apple make a big deal about their thickness but I added a protective cover to mine and I like this thickness. It fits in the pocket, feels solid and it is easy to hold. I'm worried that if my smartphone gets too thin, there is bigger chance of snapping it in half in my pocket or general use.
Eh.
A larger screen may not be for you but if Tang is happy with the phone he has right now, that's what matters.
