    iOS devices are not for tech savvy...?

    Appreciation and respect doesn't kill anyone (however much or less it is). Like I said before, regardless of what the person was doing, you should hold yourself to higher standards. If a beach bully kicks sand, and you kick sand back, all that is up there is sand, nothing else :) Just clicked...

    iOS devices are not for tech savvy...?

    Never would I ever want anyone speaking out of their @$$ (just kidding). And I also get the fact that you would want to right people who are out and out getting into a pissing contest. If you've quoted facts, nothing should stop you from reiterating them (rather than being argumentative :)). I...

    iOS devices are not for tech savvy...?

    It's nice to be outspoken (maybe not everywhere, but mostly I am too :) Like I said in my earlier post, I can see where you're coming from. As someone who is not a bug poster either on CB or iMore, I tend to lurk and only come out when I have something really constructive to add (via a fact or a...

    iOS devices are not for tech savvy...?

    And did you just decide to become the forum villain? I agree that it is a thread about iOS being for tech-savvy or not for tech-savvy users. Brutal came in and presented some points: Given that he is a BB user, it was obvious that he would try and equate his experience. Since I am primarily a...

    How is OS X Mavericks performing on your Apple Desktop or laptop?

    Me likey the new look too :) I have a 2009 iMAc 27-inch and although I love the new matte design pattern, I wasn't unhappy with the glossy version earlier. It's just when I went over to a friend's house (who hadn't upgraded on her MBP yet), it finally struck me as different (not a happy...

    Buying IOS tablet coming from Android

    All the features that are provided on iPads are there for you to use. Not using any of them is not going to have the Hammer of Doom bang on your head. Although, even if you are heavily invested in G-services, it won't hurt to take a gander over to what's in your hand (once you have the iPad...

    2 Year Refresh Cycle

    Users are going to whine even if you released an iPhone that made them coffee, folded their sheets and wiped their bottoms for them. They would complain it makes no noise while doing all this, so I don't know whether it's working or not :P I think regardless of the Android releases (because...

    iOS devices are not for tech savvy...?

    Coming from a primary BlackBerry background (but having used the iPhone4 and 4s), I agree with everyone above. What Apple has achieved is the simplification of technology so that it's acceptance is wide-spread. This should not be equated with dumbing it down, coz I know some dumb people and they...

    A message from Thorsten Heins.

    On behalf of the CUMPGP (Confederation of United Mental Phlegm Glass Painters), I take objection to this remark :( That is so offensive to mental phlegm glass painters :P I mean the word "spew" We like to use the words "fling" or "ooze" :) LP&HG

    Should users disregard BBM as a thing of the past or test it out if they want?

    It's a personal perspective. 1) A lot of people who will not even try it once are ones who have either a negative image of BlackBerry or have NO USE for it whatsoever. 2) A lot of people are just trying it for it's novelty, which is alright. Once the novelty wears off, they will surely make a...

    Why should I use BBM on my iOS device

    I now have 2 groups at work, 1 from Mobile Nations and 4 from friends which is awesome. My family has always been on BBM and we have our group that allows us to leave notes for stuff to do, mark events for things not to be missed, take pictures of things to buy, places to visit, etc. All in...

    Why should I use BBM on my iOS device

    Also, initially since it is a novelty, it will be used more than what your routine usage will be. Being part of groups also means that you will have multiple messages coming into your device (like 20 people sending you an iMessage at the same time, every 20-40 seconds :)) so be careful about...
