What if I want a smart watch but no phone? Putting the phone inside the watch isn't going to help. I value my privacy, and don't want to walk around with an effective radiolocation beacon.
Stephen Elop. No doubt. Their platform is burning!

Yellow reflective vest works even better at all times of day and year.
How about this? Stop making stupid Star Wars movies and come up with a new idea.
Hear, hear! Disney aren't making more Star Wars movies, they are making a Star Wars soap opera.
I'm willing to bet a large lump of bitcoins that the next human on the Moon will come from China. This may make Congress act if they are able to do anything but fight. Do you have a budget yet?
The first thing i noticed: Browsers use more power on Bing than on Google and even Facebook. All browsers. Don't use Bing on portable equipment. (Like if anyone ever did)
My power saving tips:
- Adblock (does IE even have Adblock?)
- No flash. Just remove it.
- Ghostery (in Opera to kill unwanted javascript) or NoScript (Firefox).
Many! Most are of course not well known. Lamborghini which is well known for obvious reasons, only made 2197 cars in 2012.
I'm not advocating anything. Is the goal of this system is to keep Tesla in business and profitable? No other goals? Really?
I can't understand current U.S. politics at all. I find this entire filibuster politics retarded. Do you have a budget yet?
Tesla's not turning a profit due to focusing on an electric car. According to this WSJ story http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324659404578499460139237952.html it's due to selling pollution credits to other car makers.
How stupid are journalists alowed to be without getting fired? Look at this: Tesla acknowledged in a recent SEC filing that emissions credit sales hit $85 million in 2013's first quarter alone—15% of its revenue, and the only reason it made a profit.
No, it isn't the only reason it made a profit. Tesla made a profit from selling cars. This is a by-product of selling electric cars in the USA (only). The editor of this paper must believe his readers have negative intelligence. Yes, if you take away a major source of income from any company without replacing it with another income, then some numbers will turn red. No wonder he became a journalist if he thinks that is news. His supply of "news" is endless.
Tesla can take much higher prices if they want to, and still sell everything they make. The price tag is higher in Europe, where they don't get those pollution credits. If you order a Tesla Model S now, at least in Europe, it won't get delivered until next year. The car is immensely popular despite it's price tag.
Add to that the tax credits offered by State and Federal income tax, a large loan from the US federal government and federal grants.
All U.S. car makers got larger loans and grants than Tesla did, and Tesla already paid their loan back. None of the fossil car makers have paid back their loans.
Tesla have sold almost all the cars they are going to make in 2013. This means they must be selling vehicles that people are more than willing to buy. Thousands of them have already been pre-sold in my country (not U.S., so no car credits), and the first delivery isn't due until September. Which other car producers have sold their entire production to consumers for months to come?
An authority is a person who can tell you more about something than you really care to know.
