You need to edit your article, its despicable!
You need proper sentence structures, stop hitting the Enter, Tab and Space buttons non-sensibly. It made me want to NOT read the article but I went through it.
The problem is that RIM has a LOT of catching up to do, and its too late for them.
They have large cash reserves, patents and portfolio and that helps in the short-term.
In this business, you have to be flexible and think two steps ahead. Something RIM failed to do and seemingly fails to do.
That’s what killed Palm and Nokia: timing.
If the N9 was released along side the iPhone 4, then the SGS wouldn’t have sold as good. And Nokia could’ve sent an OTA update to MeeGo (Harmattan is 90% Maemo5). They could’ve regained market and expanded with the economy as Samsung did with the SGS and the SGS2, and their cheap Android offerings. Plus, Nokia needed to defend their low-end market and probably needed Belle on more devices around the same period.
They were slow, they were sloppy and they were indecisive…but they got lucky with the MS deal (before MS could be exclusive with Palm/HP/RIM).
In the end, Apple does NOT have the better product …BUT they are the only ones doing things the RIGHT way in terms of specs, software, ecosystem, availability, marketing and customer satisfaction. With a right combination of these, they succeed where the others cannot.
Samsung succeeds because of its strengths: doesn’t molest Android as much, has the bleeding edge components, builds up a fan base, has marketing. Most other android oems lack such advantages so they don’t succeed or to such a degree. But Android is a cannibalising market, and is like peeing your pants in the winter cold. You need to succeed in many things to hold your ground, and even more to succeed in this business….its a difficult market, but one of the most rewarding ones in the world (Apple is now #1 brand according to their worth, Samsung is #6 up from 18th last time). http://brandirectory.com/league_tables/table/global-500-2012

Both are things favourable to Google.
Not to be a “fanboy” but I hope Oracle doesn’t win, on the basis that API’s do NOT become patentable (different to copyrightable). If they do, then it will open up a new can of worms for companies like IBM and a major setback for the Open Source community. Probably even to 3rd-Party Android Development.

All I say is: Bullshit.
Samsung has clearly tried hard to immitate the iPhone without actually infringing on Apple’s design patent.
Besides, if they deny it….it just goes to show that there’s no excuse for that utter f-ugly design!

I’ve tried the Wiimote, Kinect and Move…..out of all of those, the Kinect is the least obtrusive.
Wii has the “wow” factor in most games.
But Move is the most accurate, and makes me least angry because of issues.
Definitely the future is with combining the technology from Kinect and Move so:
-Move controller (gyro)
-Tracking the glow from the Move controller for accuracy and precision
-Dual camera’s for increased vision
-Dual infrared sensors for better depth perception
-In built CPU to handle most processes to decrease latency
-Also reduces the consoles power drain and doesn’t hinder the processor’s power
…after that they need the most important thing:
-Captivating Software!!

Its a good try but really the original is best: from AlwaysInnovating!
Here’s the link:
http://www.alwaysinnovating.com/products/hdmidongle.htm
It has a 3.5mm headset jack for stereo sound in/out and for tertiary functions like Pause/Skip Tracks….which the article fails to mention.
Also, it fails to mention thise doesn’t have a BT2.1 radio inside for controller support (like the SIXAXIS).
They should’ve gone with the form factor of A.I. so that its smaller, plugs straight in (no need to carry cables), and I would’ve gladly paid $70 for this “gadget”.
Hell, if they bumped it up to a more modern SoC like the OMAP4430, I would love to own one even for $99 !!

Only if the software inside allows it to. Custom ICS ROMs will solve the issue easily, or a Linux port for some development.

Different people = Different needs.

Huge battery.
Great battery life.
Best screen so far (I say the size is near perfection).
And very good specs (fastest dualcore, best gps, very good cameras, S PEN, usb-otg, mhl, microsd).
Also has a strong community, you really can’t go wrong
(no locked bootloader, easy root, official ics/cm9)

This is the best option.
…you’ll spend more upfront, but in the longer run you’ll be making big savings (>$700 savings), plus you can sell the Nexus anytime and even upgrade for another phone (eg Nexus 4) and also stop paying for the T-mobile whenever YOU choose. That’s not to be undermined, otherwise you become another stupid American who follows lame trends because your lazy to actually shop around for the best product for YOU.

I’m thinking of Pre-Ordering and having it shipped to me (if its cheap).
Then I’ll root it (if its easy)
Then I’ll upload the .zip for developers and hopefully extract the icons, wallpapers and sounds (if its possible).
…oh and that depends on if I getfree time
