Just tried to buy one and got an out of inventory message :( UPDATE: Tried again and you can no longer add it to the shopping cart. Just says coming soon. UPDATE 2: I'm a glutton for punishment so I tried again and it worked!

The iphone 7 prototype looks like a good start but they can take it much, much farther. A quick calculation: my arm is roughly 34 inches long and an icon row is about 1/2 inch. Factoring in for hardware chrome they could squeeze in maybe 64

Here is a solid book about mobile first development: http://www.abookapart.com/products/mobile-first It's a good (and quick) read, even if you don't agree with it, as are all of the A Book Apart publications.

Is that new? Back then it was two devs and two traders in a room. See a problem? Press the big red button. Deploy change. Press the big green button. Cowboy style. I STRONGLY recommend against doing it this way. I was young and stupid and I

I often hail livery (aka radio) cars in NYC. It's technically illegal for them to pick up passengers that they weren't dispatched to pick up. I'm sure that is a law put in place to protect medallion owners. As an aside, there are different
