I use mine all the time.

It's the first thing I use to surf the web when I wake up, and many times the last thing I'm looking at when I fall asleep. In between - I'm either using it at school, or playing games, or doing some personal shopping or browsing.

To all of those who say they don't need an iPad - technically we don't need a TV, a smart phone, or broadband internet. These are all things we want.

The idea of using a giant cellphone as an alternative to a tablet is like saying the kindle fire is an alternative to a netbook.

I don't buy the comments lauding their android phone as a flash compass of the web.

Flash runs like garbage on my desktop so I removed the plugin and only launch chrome when I stumble upon a site that HAS to use flash - which is seldom. And no, I didnt install clicktoflash, i just got rid of the thing. I can do all of my online banking, shopping, and surfing without touching flash. Been without it for over a year. Every now and then I have to launch Nike+ with chrome and my fans spin like crazy. Flash has got to go.

Meanwhile the next version of Galaxy Dingus probably won't support flash (or it's current iteration). Which makes the "flash runs exactly the same on my evo as my quad core i7 16gb DDRam nvidia 1gb xps" argument a little empty when it causes my battery to drain faster than running illustrator without a power adapter.

i'm surprised to see the aluminum and acrylic displays in use - why pick those over the current thunderbolt - LED cinema displays?

GO WINGS!

I'm strongly considering an AppleTV ever since my PS3 YLOD'ed.

I work off a Windows 7 PC at work and I'm a die-hard mac user at home. The features you speak of such as pinning and snapping are very well implemented and quite productive.

But I still feel that Windows is stuck in file structure paths and command lines. It doesn't feel as 'draggable friendly' as a mac. And the Windows interface puts so much effort on glows and transparencies, while it should spend more time on screen real estate and menu designs.

Don't get me wrong, it's a solid OS - but even using buggy OS X Lion is a treat compared to using Windows 7 for work.

have you guys ever heard of the Scosche passPort?

it's a charging adapter for a 30pin iPod/iPhone firewire cable to convert the voltage to the 12V 1A chargers for newer iPhones.

been using one for about a year. and it's working out great. not sure if it would work with a USB charger though.

Beta is beta.

noone ever seems to criticize Google's software when it's in beta form. I spent the better part of two days trying to get Google Music Beta to work and I'm not complaining.

Nintendo Wii -

The only reason I kept it for so long was for Goldeneye which came out last year. Now it's coming out for all the systems next week!

great! but $7.50 is a bit high for something that'll change shape after a few days!

one added benefit of having the same form factor as the iPhone 4 is that many cases and peripherals will still work as intended.

i'm especially intrigued by the dual antenna system. i constantly wish i had better signal in my apartment on at&t.

wonder if anyone is brave enough to shoot a commercial with an iPhone. maybe a local spot...

thanks for these pieces. i haven't even thought of using a simple text app for jotting down info - been trying to fuse Evernote + iCal Reminders + dashboard stickies but it's too convoluted.

i will try using Mac's mail - notes and iPhone notes for now since iCloud has launched.

this is a good breakdown. what's most important right now though, is to find when LTE will be realistically deployed nationwide.

no use buying an LTE phone when your not in the coverage zone for years, while HSPA might be available where you are now.

looks like fun! hopefully you won't have to be a genius at coding to pull profiles like this off.

i wish there were a way to level the angle of the Magic Trackpad. like the battery compartment could swing up like a hinge.

I don't understand why macs should upgrade to Lion when iCloud will work on Vista or Windows7. But there it is, on the disclaimer.
