    I'm fond of New Zealand, where you either pay as you walk out or the waiter brings you a mobile POS. There's no awkward 'take my credit card, walk away with it, and bring it back' …

    I understand this and I agree with you. I don't even deny that the 4s has a great camera. It does! But to compare it to an S95 and a 5D Mark II isn't a story that's ready to be tol…

    I think it's unfortunate but I can understand it's appeal and why people like it. Anyone can turn a crap photo into an appealing image with the application of a filter. Who wouldn'…

    The other trump card: Chrome. Bake the Google bar in and Facebook is in a world of hurt.

    Wow, I came in here to say the same thing. I don't get enough traffic through Disqus to have issues at the moment, but when I did a while back I remember Daniel bending over backwa…

    I have an iMac, two macbooks, and an iPod touch. My phone of choice, however, is a Nexus One. After eating the cost of an unsubsidized unit, I pay sixty dollars a month for 900 min…
