I don't think the parent is trolling. This is practically the sorry state of Firefox, which would probably be something like version 4.6.7 using the old versioning system. WebKit has left Mozilla in the dust, maybe they should switch bandwagons and just release a Firefox-y application wrapper built on WebKit?

..so when are they going to do it, like, for real?

Well, I replaced the battery on my iPhone 4, the battery was a about $15 or so from DX and it took about 15 minutes of extra careful first-time work to replace. Now that I know the construction, it would take maybe a couple of minutes to do that again. Just remove the two exposed screws and slide off the back glass cover. Then remove the single screw holding the battery connector, pull out the connector, lift out the old battery. Assembly is simply the reverse.

Yeah, and for the iPhones, he could use AirDisplay, which makes the device a "real" wireless display head.

They really didn't do the same thing. The killer app for the iPhone was a decent touch-screen web browser and a very stable OS, neither was available on the S60 devices. It also shifted away the phone app from being the centerpiece to just being another app amongst others, which resulted in a paradigm shift. Battery life on Symbian phones was also quite awful, if you actually used any radios instead of just keeping the phone in stand-by. Symbian phones were also very crash-prone, unlike the iPhones, and you wouldn't get any major firmware updates, merely some hotfixes to some of the serious bugs.
You aren't just comparing apples to oranges, you are comparing a mid-90's low-end keypad-controlled handheld system design to a modern, touch-screen-controlled Unix-based system.

Call forwarding isn't a phone feature, it's a carrier feature.

The batteries aren't as hard to replace as some non-techies make you believe. Buy the parts from chinese retailers, do the work yourself and the phone will perform like when it was new. There are a lot of people with worse phones, who would appreciate even an old smartphone.

Pretty much, yes. The Apple haters are similar to the Microsoft haters, except they target hate wider than the Apple products themselves; their imaginary straw-man Apple customers.

The point is, that the only way to (legally) aquire magsafe connectors is to cut them off Apple's power supplies. The MagSafe connector includes a "DRM" chip, which does the handshake with the MacBook and there are no third parties selling "pirated" MagSafe connectors.

As for the batteries, yes, I expect there'll be people who figure out how to replace the batteries without replacing the top-case + keyboard + trackpad in a package for $50-$150, but in many cases it'll be a worse value than getting a new, shiny top-case + keyboard + trackpad as a part of Apple's $200 battery deal. Damaged top-case components are fairly common in second-hand 'Books and replacing those will probably get a better re-sale value than just replacing the battery or selling with a damaged battery + worn top-case parts.

In case you haven't noticed, the people bitching are people who have never touched an Apple product in their life, and probably never will no matter what Apple does.

Why is this modded down? Besides, the Retina MacBook Pro batteries ARE replaceable, you just replace the entire top-case with battery, keyboard and trackpad as a single unit. It's $200 including the Apple-certified work to replace it: http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro/service/battery/
IMO, at the time the battery is worn-out, the top-case/keyboard/trackpad have seen better days anyway, which makes this operation much more affordable than on earlier MacBook Pro models.

No, because of the first step in instructions:

1) Cut your MacBook/MagSafe Adapter's cable.

The user would have to specifically enable the respective iCloud settings to make the device iCloud-accessible to anyone, including themselves and Apple.

Well, still says something about the phones when they specifically mention iPhone as difficult. They probably crack the others easily, but the iPhone goes over their skill level.

This should be +5 Funny.
