What did Apple loose? Apple currently has $75.876 billion in cash on-hand after its raucously successful third quarter. Are they going to discontinue the iphone now? Shoot I hope not, I wanted to get one in January. How many different android sku's from how many different companies are going against a single iphone to compare numbers? Not to mention only Verizion and AT&T sell the iphone. The U.S. market gets got a 49% Android handsets shipped out forgoing that of iPhone's comparatively under average 31%, yet still that share makes the iPhone the most popular handset there is. Yeah, that's real impressive. Heil68

they are losing market share to android very quickly. is that in dispute?  sure they are still the most popular handset but you know they make $$ off the apps right. they want it to become a huge profit generator like itunes is now.  devices that have android hurt those app dollars regardless of the manufacturer. that's why Apple wants to stop Androids.

seriously?  Apple thinks it's got the patent for white books and black borders?

look at the LCD tv market. the typical square and black border is just that. typical.

the general shape of the tablet was obvious even in 1994 when Knight Ridder made a video about that type of device.

this is a BS suit to keep android devices out of the tablet market because Apple is afraid of android. they lost the smartphone market to them.  They don't want that to happen to tablet market as well.

as for your opionion on the actual device. It doesn't matter. the first andriod phones sucked too. but they get better. Apple is trying to stop progress before it can be a threat to them. to me and most tech bloggers that's obvious.

[QUOTE="Ontain"]a lot of this would just be because there are really cheap android phones while not much options for iOSmusicalmac
Well that would make sense, seeing as the majority of iOS device owners are making more money. Though, it's rumored that Apple is aiming at the lower market, as well, with an iPhone 5 and an iPhone 4S, allowing them to operate how they have been today (iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS).

correlation != causality. 

it could just as well be the case that ppl that make more money buy more expensive products.

the data would be more interesting if we could see the break down based on price points.  that way you aren't comparing a person with a free (with contract) android phone with someone willing to pay 200-300 for a phone with contract.

 "The Galaxy Tab was stretched via Photoshop or some image editor to look like it had the same dimensions as the iPad 2. The Galaxy Tab was reduced from a 1.46 aspect ratio (for the tablet, no the display) down to a more iPad-like 1.36.  The iPad has an aspect ratio of 1.30."

 

oh Apple... i am disappoint.

She looks like an older Katara. Anyways it looks REALLY good, I can't freaking wait, I might just rewatch the entire series.

Hopefully it's not just all about her though, it would be nice if she at least had another companion.

tagyhag

well she's also from the southern water tribe so some resemblance would be normal.

[QUOTE="CJL13"]This animation looks stunning, but whatever happened to Zuko?Sky-

 

It takes place 70 years after the original, so he's either really old or dead.

yeah i know. Korra's going to meet with Aang and katara's son for Air bending training. he's going to be middle aged.

but they ended the last series with the question about Zuko's mom. was there no answer for that?

the wolverine anime didn't actually look as much as the trailer as you'd think.

here's what it actually looks like

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t70NMabG-eU

 which is really good (looks that is. the story still sucks).  i've seen like 8 or 9 episodes of it.

 there was an x-men one too which looks great but i didn't like the story either.

haven't watch any of the ironman yet.

I wonder what ever happened to Zukko's mom though.
