    Kindle vs ipad

    I read on my iPad just fine with the Kindle app. I think the issues about reading LCD screens on eyestrain are specific to certain people. I stare at a screen for hours on end for my job and have never gotten eyestrain. I don't see the point in having a separate device that only does one thing...

    Who got a new 5C for Christmas?

    I gave a 5c for Christmas and the recipient either really liked it or put on a GREAT act. lol I think it's a terrific phone. Feels good in the hand. If I didn't already have a 5s, I'd look closely into getting the 5c.

    Who's rolling naked with their 5c?

    re: For those who want to go naked but don't really want to go naked, just try either a skin or an ultra thin case. I've had good experiences with skins at bestskinsever.com. And for ultra thin cases, there really is no thinner than the Caudabe Veil. Several friends of mine have this for their...

    For your new iPad Air will you go naked or case it?

    I do what I always do: get an Apple smart cover for the front and nice frost back cover for the back. I got a Caudabe Shell which fits well and has a nice matte see through finish. Caudabe • The Shell

    What's the best iPad file manager app?

    Documents by Readdle is really, really awesome. I had originally been using Goodreader, but I find Documents so much better and more robust. I've got it synced with several folders in Dropbox which gives me offline access to those files on my iOS devices.

    Your Favourite iPhone 5/5s case?

    I've got a black Apple leather case and a Caudabe Veil. The Caudabe is my daily case at the moment just because of how thin it is. But if I feel I need more protection, I'll go back to the Apple case.

    No touch-sensor... so what?

    This is literally my only complaint with the Air. The technology is clearly available, so why wasn't it added? I'm just not used to typing in pass codes after having acclimated to touch ID on my 5s.

    The iPad Air or MacBook Air Which would you choose?

    re: Assuming the MBA was your only computer, this is a no brained. iOS devices, while great, still have some limitations software wise. And some websites don't support mobile browsers for certain critical functions. If I had to choose one, it'd have to be the MacBook.

    Apple iPad Air Screen Protector: Is it Necessary?

    I really don't think screen protectors are necessary for iPads, especially if you have something like a Smart Cover. The screens are pretty durable.

    iPhone 5s Battery Life?

    Mine seems a little bit better than my 5, but it's not a huge improvement. I'm just waiting for the day when true all day long battery is a reality.

    iPhone 5S Naked or in a case?

    I would never go naked. Just not worth it. There are plenty of thin case options out there that aren't expensive. I personally use a Caudabe Veil. Non obtrusive and looks good.

    Do you think the gold 5s is gaining popularity due to how it looks?

    I actually think for the majority of people, the gold is just the next new thing. When rumors first arose about the gold, a ton of people were bashing it. Now that it's out and in such short supply, it's almost like everyone wants it. I think the hype will die down eventually.

    Would you consider a bigger iPhone?

    I agree. I think the Note 2 is entirely too big. But something in the range of 4.3-4.5" would be very much ideal, I think. Watching videos and the like is still sort of painful on a 4" screen.

    How is your iPhone 5 battery life?

    I'm not happy with my phone's battery life. Not because it doesn't somewhat measure up to most people's experiences on here. It does. But, that sort of battery life is less than ideal for a tool that I depend on everyday. I could sacrifice the small size, both in dimensions and weight, for a...

    Let's be honest here guys? Is it still the greatest thing ever?

    I love my iPhone, but I had the chance to play around with a Galaxy S4 and I think a 4.5 or 4.3 inch screen would be perfect. My only real complaint about the iPhone is the screen size.
