When I was a teenager I used to work at the electronics department at the local Sears store in my neighborhood mall. Now, before you start making fun of me, I’d like to say that I learned a lot about electronics and technology while working there.
With Apple currently locked in a vicious legal battle with Samsung over various patents it is clear that the people behind the iPhone are serious about keeping their edge over the competition.
A few days ago a video surfaced of one YouTube user comparing the abilities of Apple's Siri and Microsoft's Tellme software. With Siri found on the new iPhone 4S and Tellme being part of Windows Phone 7, it was really only a matter of time before the two were compared head-to-head.
The whole Apple vs. Samsung debacle is starting to get a little too silly for words. We have two giant companies going at it tongue and nail over what really boils down to a couple of similarities in device design when. Really, how different can you make one slate smartphone look from another?
With Samsung recently managing to convince an appeals court to lift the sales ban placed on its Galaxy Tab device, many thought that we might be coming to the end of the long, drawn-out saga which has seen Samsung and Apple fight tooth and nail.

If you're the owner of an iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S, you're probably already acutely aware of just how eye-poppingly awesome that Retina Display screen is.

According to Cult Of Mac, that is something that Apple could well be working on making a reality.
It’s been quite a steady year for mobile OS usage this year. Worldwide, the top eight mobile OS platforms have relatively stayed in their same positions, in terms of usage, for most of the year. While Symbian OS has kept its throne successfully, the real action is between iOS and Android.
Whether it's an iPhone 4S, a Samsung Galaxy S II or a HTC Desire, we all love our smartphones, and most of us couldn't function day-to-day without them.
Because of their tight integration with iTunes, easy to use software and powerful features, iOS devices generally get higher satisfaction rates than, say, Android devices which, despite being quite powerful, aren’t as easy to use (this is coming from an Android enthusiast). The latest smartphone from Apple - the iPhone 4S - is no exception as results of a recent survey indicate that the iPhone 4S has the highest customer satisfaction ratings for any Apple smartphone yet. Details after the jump!
The baseband bootrom for the iPhone 4S has been dumped by the iPhone Dev-Team, Redmond Pie has learned. Check out the details after the jump!
