There's enough smoke now that we can safely assume that all these actions by Google are to sabotage the experience on Microsoft products.

Uh the subscriber details is what they want and what they don't get. They aren't going to be able to monetize my IP address or whatever else technical data they get from the app. So basically Apple handles all the billing, and my

The connection between Apple and luxury will only be strengthened because of this.

My mother bought an Anroid phone and it was a disaster. I used to be an idiot loser who pushed all the nerdy ideologically sound products and solutions on friends and family...when I was 16. When I found out that's what she got I bough

That doesn't mean you have to use the technology before you think of a good use. Only Apple seems to realize this.

Touch ID works great for me and seems like its getting faster. Sometimes I don't even get a chance to look at the lock screen before it unlocks. It's pretty awesome.

My friends and I used Kik for a while when they used Blackberry and Anroid phones. I was the only iPhone user at first, but once another friend got an iPhone it became much easier to convince the rest of them how much better it was for all

People will slowly realize it once Google starts monetizing it more. Ads in Gmail are the start.

They're the latest numbers but still useless for any developer to make an assumption based on. Market share will obviously drop off going into the new refresh cycle. It's happened every time.

The flood of lower end devices always made this a matter of when. What matters to developers is what to develop for first, and that will remain iOS for a myriad of reasons. Apple will be leading in this one measure once they release new iPa

Apple monetizing apps is ancillary to their monetizing of hardware. The real accomplishment is how Apple has managed to dominate market share while competing against a gamut of OEMs with a free OS and much lower price points. Apple may not

These numbers are kind of useless when Apple is weeks away from refreshing their iPad line-up. You'll see Apple back in the lead in market share after that. Developers will continue to target iOS first because of that and because iOS u

Most Anroid customers don't value these little touches. Being able to install various ROMs and have widgets on the homescreen plus other customizations are more important to them.

iOS 7 definitely sets the standard for beautiful mobile operating systems. Windows Phone is a close second. Anroid is just garbage though.
