What?

What are these guys thinking? There are industrial devices for this that will survive a lot more abuse. Those iPads will be all dead in a year.

Old

Motorolo's patents are quite old and almost useles for tablets.

The reason...

I use The Book Depository is because they are cheaper than Amazon.co.uk. I like Amazon and use it for many things, but now I fear a bit for the prices of my books.

Quest

And so the quest continues to turn our browsers into the most over engineered complex platforms running shitty programming models and spaghetti code. It feels like 1990 again.

Greenhouse

This make come as a shock to many of you... but greenhouse gasses don't go away if the sun "cools" down.

Everybody wants an iPad 2

... but I guess some will settle for this.

Recycle

Let's camouflage this as an amazing new feature while we recycle games and sell them to you again.

Mates

>Finally, here’s a movie you might actually want to watch with your mates

Just don't forget to buy glasses for all 5 of them. Lol 3D.

Waste of money

Looks like Motorola will be looking for a landfill spot soonish.

Oh dear

The day that we are happy that we are seeing more ads is a sad day indeed.

Speed?

Since when is the speed of browsers a major issue?

Does anybody actually care?

Nuff said...

Bricked?

No.. failed to update. Not the same as bricked.

Free OS

Isn't a free OS also a bride???

catastrophe

Wait... if it completely melts in summer, isn't that already a catastrophe? It doesn't really matter if it freezes again in winter.

2-1?

Actually it is 1.45 million vs 550K. 3-1 would be slightly more accurate.

MS is right

For once they are hitting the nail on the head.

A format nobody really needed, overpriced and shoved down the throat of us consumers.

statistics

>in that over 60 per cent of all websites are based on Apache

Seriously... you should know that statistics mean nothing. 60% of all websites... and probably 95% of "all" those websites are irrelevant placeholders or total statical nonsense.

Anyway.. back to our regular bashing...

Apples?

As far as I know Apple doesn't have barcode scanner or imagers? This is an OS for that (rather big) market. Windows CE/WM has a rather big part of the slice in that market TBH.

Hardware

It is not about the hardware silly.

I knew this in the 90s

It is Sim Life all over again!

Dumb

To be honest... if you really believe that eating a lot of meat is good for the planet, you should be taken out and shot.. or eaten. Fudd at it's best.

Looks like I...

Clicked on an ad.

I don't pay for ... oh wait.

3D

>the consumer electronics industry has rallied behind 3D TV

Luckily nobody cares.

Running themselves into the ground

If things continue like this for Google they will be a distant memory in 2020. One trick pony?

Fail

And Sony tries again to repackage the same shit to sell it to the same moro-- errr... early "adopter" and technophiles.

I want OLED and giant touch screen TVs first... not this 3D nonsense.

Naive

TBH... I am no Apple fan, but Steve is right. You would have to be pretty naive to believe that a company like Google only wants the best for us mortals.

Apple

I think they forget to mention that Apple has 95% of the mobile app market. The rest of the planet will probably makes 0$.

Lost Mojo???

I am sure a lot of companies would kill to be in a "bad position" like MS is today.

Still easily dominant OS and plenty of software sales.

People might be whining about WM, but WM/CE is very successful in the industrial world. Plenty of embedded devices, scanners and machines use it every day.

Web devs are funny

I always have to laugh when web developers think they write real complicated code.

Ad

Does it display ads when you are calling?
