Heck I have a 20" 1600x1200 monitor and it's great. Crazy to think to get larger screen which only hash out same resolution 7 years !

Or just convert ePubs in a minute or so using Calibre
So in the last 6-12 months coffee and red wine have been show to prevent pretty much everything -- heart disease, dementia, hypertension, aging etc.
Pop science is so tiring. Fact is all of these studies are incredibly dependent on the population.

Camera review site (known for not being slanted in their reviews) to the iPhone 5 for an initial review (longer one comparing to other phones will come later) and dedicated a whole page analyzing the flare issue.
http://www.dpreview.com/articles/6867454450/quick-review-apple-iphone-5-camera
Here's their analysis of the flare issue:
"Really, our advice is not to worry. Just do what you should do anyway, and avoid putting bright lights near the edge of the frame when shooting."
Their final conclusion on the 5's camera:
"The iPhone 5 is a fine mobile device, with an excellent camera. In qualititative terms it's not the best camera out there, and nor is it the best camera on a smartphone (the Nokia 808 has that honor, for now) but it offers satisfying image quality, some neat functions like auto panorama and HDR mode, and - crucially - it is supremely easy to use. It isn't much better than the iPhone 4S, as far as its photographic performance is concerned, but it isn't any worse (notwithstanding a somewhat more noticeable propensity towards lens flare). When manufacturers employ pixel-binning to achieve higher ISO settings we don't normally celebrate the fact, but in the case of the iPhone 5, it gives you greater flexibility in poor light (i.e., you might actually get a picture now, where you just wouldn't with the iPhone 4S) and the drop in quality is unnoticeable when the images are used for sharing/web display."
Thanks for posting this link. The DPreview camera review is what should have been posted than the usual Gizmodo anti-apple trolling to generate page views...
Please discuss.
Very few people would donate. Watching movies at the cinema is often a poorer experience than watching at home, for various reasons, but it is one way to guarantee that people pay to watch your movie..
Have to agree on seeing movies in a theater is awful! I went to an IMAX showing of Batman. I loved the screen but the sound was so loud I had a headache by the end of the film -- it was like a rock concert.I really missed my home theater at the end of that movie!
To clarify. I mean a palm pre.
...but only when they have the backing of serious companies whose business models depend on them. (See Linux, Apache.) When a platform is dying because of lack of customer interest (See Solaris, BeOS, Irix), going open source won't save it.
Also died because the hardware was terrible....
I really wanted to get a Palm back in the day, went to see it in the store, and that keyboard was so puny I couldn't possible use it.
... unfortunately it's only on a single set of 3.5s just like my ASCII/ANSI artwork. Probably unrecoverable by now. Windows for Workgroups and the rest are just minor nostalgia pieces I haven't trashed yet as I find it finny to run across them in my old hardware boxes. - HEX
Why unrecoverable. 3.5" drives are easy to come by, and are still supported in Windows 7.
You must be new here. Slashdot is hardly the bastion of the ill-informed global warming deniers. Slashdot is full of various types or nerds who by and large are smarter than most (exceptions do occur)
Must be true since it came form wikipedia....
Wiki was first I found to easily cite. Then the 3 sources back up the wiki claim. I think it's fair.
He's not at Apple and has not been for a long while.
Wrong. He may not work there daily, but he is still listed as an employee of Apple

hmm I guess all those reports of certain games not working correctly if you had a different (older) hardware revision of the console were just false then and that no such thing ever happened.
Would love to see a citation on this claim....
I've always been baffled at people buying Mac, hardware to me it's a bit like console gaming, which also baffles me these days, as it's got all the hassles PC gaming has these days with none of the flexibility.
Really? Last I heard console gaming had no configuration issues, drivers, etc which a PC does..
Its not being ready for LTE that kill them, it was the lack of modernizing the user interface and modern phones that killed them.
Exactly! RIM was dieing way before LTE was anything more than a pipe dream... heck even now LTE isn't that big of a deal for most buyers...
