I was wondering about this from the first time the drone delivery thing came up. People will steal everything that is unprotected, and sometimes even things that are heavily protected. Why do Amazon et. al. think it will be any different with delivery drones? Once those drones are ubiquitous, shooting them down just to hunt down some nice surprise presents will become a new sport.

Windows phones and Tablets are less than 3% of the market. Why even develop for such a small market share?

Android (Which is linux) has 51% of the phone market and 61% of the tablet market.

It's not the year of the Windows Phone or Tablet, just like it is not the year of the linux desktop. :P

Ill agree with this, I am using a $9 keyboard that I have had for 7 years.

It is so well used that the following keys have no letter on them, they have rubbed off over the years.

I really don't think an expensive top of the line keyboard is needed. Grab you a cheap on that feels good to you and use it.

He is making noise about common carriers that are refusing to move is product based on it's potential to produce a weapon.

If they are common carriers they are not able to deny service based on a political view. That is like an ISP trying to block all republican sites on the Internet because they are owned by democrats. Which I can now say because the FCC has applied common carrier status to ISP's and called it "Net Neutrality" lol
