"That same month, Apple CEO Tim Cook emailed a disgruntled fanboy to promise a "great" Mac Pro update is on the way."
How much of a virgin are you to email a manufacturer and complain that your machine doesn't fetaure newer technologies? He deserves a 'ole smack if the face and publicly humiliated for being such a girl.
Re: okay...
"A UI that lets devs change the fucking wallpaper would be a good start"
Your not allowed. The Apple overlords command that your phone WILL look like the rest of the sheep followers. NO you AILL NOT be allowed to personalise your device. It WILL LOOK AND FEEL LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER SHEEP.
NOW SHUSH, or your beloved iPhone will be removed!
Who cares so much about a phone? You gotta be desperate for a lay if you are.
"The non-profit group said that it found seven kids under 16 working...."
Now those 7 families may not be able to eat! No one knows what the story is. Those kids may be supporting their families and preventing them may do more harm than good.

Well said sir.

"Re: You miss the point of this forum
Prerequisites to owning an Apple phone
You missed one other point...
5. Successful."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. In your head.
What COWARDS don't seem to realise is that everyone else looks at you with your phone and know that they are going to have to s p e a k s l o w l y a n d c l e a r l y t o e n s u r e t h a t y o u u n d e r s t a n d.
But don't forget point 6. So far up thier own arse they can only talk shite.
And point 7. iPhone is so last decade.
Re: You miss the point of this forum
"You miss the point of this forum
It's for the exclusive use of Fandroids to have a little dig at Apple.
There are three prerequisites to owning an Android phone
1. Lack of cash
2. Immaturity
3. Lack of social education
These 3 items put into a formula give the reason why the Fandroid acts and posts and downvotes the way he does. There is also some Pavlovian conditioning involved.
The formula, LC x (I x LSE) = E
E is of course Envy."
Why would anyone envy such f king STUPIDITY! Hardly surprising from and iPhone owner tho.
If you really believed anything you wrote, and assumed that your peers would listen, you would not be and anonymous COWARD! Typical iPhone user, full of shite!
Posted in Murdoch pitches battery for renewables
Reducing the power consumption of of gizmos, gadgets and devices should be hand in hand with battery development.
Those up top don't listen to their skilled, trained and experienced staff. They listen to salesmen and to those who are NOT skilled, trained or experienced. Doesn't make sense does it?
It's all about reducing the staffing costs, not about the service being provided.
Re: Shock Horror
Exactley!
Never listen to a salesman.

Re: I'm getting fed up with the volume of ignorant comments on patents
""Obvious! Trying to patent what everyone one already does. It IS a patent on the broad concept of shopping."
But isn't that the same for the Black and Decker workmate patent? Can't you just say that was patenting a desk combined with a clamp and is obviously something you want to do? Yet it's always been held up as one of the best examples of a hardware patent. Please do tell me, do you think that patent should never have been granted?
All patents appear obvious in hindsight."
Did you manage to keep hold of any straws?
Re: @Obviously!
"Free iPhone? So you wouldn't be paying ~ 400-500 Transatlantic Monetary Units over the course of several years? During which you're stuck with the operator? You, sir, are an advertiser's dream."
W O W, missed the point completely. No wonder!
Millions of sheep CAN be wrong.

Re: It's an application
"not yet a patent"
Opening line of the article reads "Apple has been granted a patent... " on the f cking obvious again.

Apples next patent to be granted by the USPTO, the iLungs.

Wow, they are sooo invovative and cool. I must have one of there products so people think that I'm cool too!

Re: I'm getting fed up with the volume of ignorant comments on patents
"So this patent relates to shopping lists, but relates to constructing shopping lists from barcode scanning AND searching for best price deals AND organising the results to identify a minimal number of shops the user can visit to purchase the items AND where the user can specify the max number of stops he/she is prepared to put up with. Hardly a patent on the broad concept of shopping lists as the Register have stated in their headline"
Obvious! Trying to patent what everyone one already does. It IS a patent on the broad concept of shopping.
This is exactley what we already do and the american patent officewill grant another useless patemt making them look even more foolish.
"Even if that's true though, the copying would have to be an infringement on Apple's actual patents for Apple to win this case. The jury would also have to accept that Apple had a right to those patents – that they aren't invalid because they're obvious or had been done before."
The crux of the matter.
Re: It just goes to show
"It just goes to show how hard hitting this recession is that phone users are so short of cash that they cannot afford an iPhone and have to opt for the cheaper Android alternatives."
Are you off your face?
Stop trying to big up the iPhone. They are just as cheap. I could walk into my local high street and get one FREE!
Also, do you really think that a products price has any bearing?
What, you think you’re the dogs bollox because your phone cost more than someone else’s?
You, sir, are the advertisers dream.
Its one thing Apple do well, and "droid" could do with sorting out.
(See, I don't hate Apple, I hate isheep)
Re: Yet another.....
another COWARD slating android users.
copying my handle? You work for Apple then?
Re: @Many anti-Apple commenters
" I think that you are making the mistake of seeing products in terms of a list of features rather than a complete product with the overall user experience being key."
Apple are not saying Samsung copied their "overall user experience"! Sorry.
If you really believe that iOS brings a better "overall user experience" your wrong.

"Re: iPhone's have the same physical design as...
First production flat screen TV - Sinclair Radionics FTV1, a flat-screen TV launched in the UK in 1984. Your facts are as valid as your straw man argument"
W O W, don't you ralise that you've just proven the whole agrument?
Apple RIPPED OFF EXISTING IDEAS, and only those stupid enough to purchase their tech are blind to that fact.
Still nothing has been said that supports iPhone.
It looks bad, the UI is bad, the whole ecosystem is bad.
Apple just ripped off existing ideas, they present NOTHING NEW.
Boohoo ladies, get over yourselves.
Apple didn't invent a rectangle with rounded corners.
They did think of using glass and stainless steel (kitchens circa 2000) and they did introduce a sickly looking 80's wall paper design to their UI. Their design can't be patented and they can't say that no one else can make devices of the same shape. If they do, then they are contradicting themselves because devices which are rectangles with rounded corners were produced WAY before Apple released the god awefull iPhone.
They didn't invent 3G.
They didn't invent the camera.
They didn't invent.................................
Christ the list is endless!
I hate lying sheep people.
Re: Conflation
"Re: Conflation
Apple hope to show that Samsung had -
- similar looking phones
- with a similar looking UI and icons
- in similar packaging
Apple are claiming a bit more than the 'round corners' that trolls love to quote - to the extent that Samsung copied every important aspect of the iPhone and its packaging."
What important aspects?
A rectangle with rounded corners. All phones have rounded corners (nearly). Apple stole the idea od frounded corners from every other phone released prior to iphone.
Since when does Android and it's icoms look the iPhone? Android doesn't look like 80's wallpaper. That can't be said of iOS.
Stop kidding yourself and stop trying to spread the lies.
Re: Conflation
"Apple can claim any win against Samsung a win against Android, conflating the two."
No they can not.
"Apple can claim any win against Samsung a win against Android, conflating the two."
I don't have a samsung handset, don't like them, but Apple can not claim a win against android! What Win are your talking about anyway? In your head?
Re: Conflation
"Lets face it, the iPhone had Google, Microsoft (although not soon enough), Nokia, Samsung, HTC and all the others worrying themselves about it's new UI and touch screen approach."
*BOLLOX, the iPhone still hasn't brought anything new. Touchscreen were in use prior to the iPhone release and the UI wasn't new either. Why do fanbois decide to ignore the facts?*
"Out of all of the above only one company made their UI, phone design and packaging similar in appearance to Apple and it is Samsung."
*What so all of the other mobiles I've purchased came in a paper bag? Stop lying to yourself.*
"Google changed Android to be a large screen touchscreen OS. Nokia fumbled around for years and failed to get anywhere and HTC were largely immune since they don't have their own OS."
*Do you see with your grandparents eyes? Rhetoric*
"Some people who discount the iPhone's impact need take their mind back to 2006 and early 2007. There were touchscreen phones but they required a stylus to tap buttons on the screen. Most people were using phones with numeric keypads."
*Touchscreen is a touchscreen, stylus or not. So apple didn’t invent the touch screen. They spent $M's to reel in the week of mind, and it worked, clearly.*
Stop trying to kid yourselves. All the bull Apple spouts can be proven to be complete spin, not an ounce of truth in what they spout.
W O W, people will buy into any ole sh te!
Damed if you do, Damed if you don't.
Lets hope Apple get bitten.

If your asking such fundamental questions, maybe you should pack away all of your kit and get your pad/pen/envelopes out.
Then you have the nerve to slate an experienced engineer.
Does anyone listen to your opinions?
Re: but but
"With Apple you sign away your rights to everything anyway. You're not permitted to use the phone any way you want. You can't root your phone and use the hardware with any software you choose."
It never ceases to amaze me just how many people don't know or care. Let them be burned.

"Re: A sane

Woz is old school, he's an electronics engineer and hardware hacker. Why does his opinion count in the world of software and online communications?"
I hope for your employers sake your not a techie. Sounds like you don't know what your doing.
Techies don't keep their data in the cloud. Non-tech people just follow the fad, how do you think the i devices have become so popular.
I hope Woz's predictions come true.
No wonder game players go nuts. Their lives are so boring playing computer games.
"......helplessly watched a hacker remotely erase and lock his iPhone, iPad and MacBook after his iCloud account was hijacked. It's a cautionary tale against relying too heavily on one cloud platform."

"Given that Samsung have a history of giving out "spliffs", incentives to individual salesmen for meeting sales targets, then this is a very real problem."
Somehow I don't think its Samsung salesmen smoking spliffs.......
Do you really love a BRAND that much! Suppose $600oddM CAN buy the weak minded, so the Apple advertising budget is justified.
UK law makers are complete w nkers! Well done for totally showing the UK up. Why are these 'people' allowed to even breathe?
