It's funny to think how absolutely last-century speeding tickets are. I mean, a person actually has to take a radar gun, or laser gun, aim it at a stationary part of your vehicle like a license plate, and find out how fast you're going. They then need to follow you and pull you over, just to let you know you were going a little bit faster than the speed limit on this beautiful spring morning with all of your windows open, and not another car on … [Read more...]
The Boy Genius Report: What is BlackBerry thinking?
Mai 14, 2013 By
At the company's BlackBerry Live conference on Tuesday, BlackBerry announced what could be interpreted as zero positive news for the company. First, there's the BlackBerry Q5 mid-range QWERTY handset that runs BlackBerry 10. Pricing was conveniently not announced. Industry watchers are chiming in saying that BlackBerry really needs to hit a $250 price point at full retail in order to compete in Asia and other similar markets. Let me spoil it … [Read more...]
Apple shares now up 12% from their low, yet we’re the only ones talking about it ahead of a monster WWDC
Mai 6, 2013 By
Apple's outflow of capital over the last five months is staggering. It makes sense, however, when you think of how many shares are institutionally owned, and owned by non-retail shareholders. Why not take some profits from Apple's meteoric rise over the past couple years? Why not sell some shares before the new year (2013) when the capital gains tax rate is going up by 25%? And yes, Apple's margins have slowly come down, and the breakneck growth … [Read more...]
Samsung Galaxy S4 review
April 24, 2013 By
What company is rolling out an iterative update to its best-selling smartphone in the world? One that builds upon the success of the previous model, yet for the most part retains the same shape, design, and form of last year's phone? If you guessed Apple, you'd be wrong. The brand new Samsung Galaxy S4 improves upon the Galaxy S III in almost every way, but with HTC's One already winning on materials and even user interface design, can Samsung … [Read more...]

But considering how good the on-screen keyboard is on the Z10 — it's the absolute … [Read more...]
HTC One Review
April 1, 2013 By
HTC's (2498) new smartphone comes at an important time. As good, thoughtful and purposeful as HTC's products are, the company hasn't been doing as well as it used to. Samsung's (005930) been on a roll, and Apple (AAPL) is Apple. The latest flagship smartphone from HTC is the One, and it is a complete reset. It features a beautiful aluminum case, much lighter HTC Sense interface, and a load of innovative features that aren't available on other … [Read more...]
