Well, as accurate as I feel your statement is, I'd also say sometimes it depends on the 10% missing from the products not done by Apple. If it's an important 10% that Apple has nailed (or close enough) then sometimes the 50% is m

But this isn't just about the FBI. It's about all of law enforcement. Sure, the FBI may be practiced enough to hide the facts of discovery, but will every law enforcement agency in the US be as adept. If Apple is lying, or law

Or maybe now that a large group of drivers have an impact on Uber, they want to continue to build muscle. If it was something other than accepting UberX fares, Uber wouldn't have caved (they're too smart for that). No this point

I think 2 different watch sizes are absolutely necessary. There is no way that one watch size will fit across the varied wrists of both men and women. Both may feel fine for a average sized wrist, but start moving up or down from that wris

There is no smartwatch market at the moment. Nothing out there save for the kickstarter release of the pebble has gained any positive buzz. If that continues then the 2015 release date won't matter. The price is another matter and m
