I'll take Mr. Batman as long as they keep the Chronicles of Sarah Connor timeline where T3 is erased.

I too was skeptical at first, but like you, I'm totally digging it.

The Russian History article has remained out of the books and wasn't really expanded on, and yet it was always the article that had the most resonance for me. So, I'm trying to expand on it as best I can.

Re: Why Apple's shares rose after Steve Jobs resigned

pberry — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 16:13:48 -0000

I think it is important to say that there was a large contingent of people that were very sure that once Jobs left Apple stock would go down and _stay_ down, despite all of the factors that you mention. This is clearly not what happened.

Re: ∞ Sprint will have the iPhone 5 with unlimited data in Oct.

I guess the question then becomes how soon until the unlimited data rug is pulled out from beneath all their new customers?

Re: ∞ Anonymous developer suggests protest against Apple, Google

pberry — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 10:17:38 -0000

Lawyers don't drag their feet...it would scuff their nice shoes. Seriously though, this is a complicated legal issue which means that things aren't going to move as fast as developers need them to move, but it's not like Apple and Google are trying to screw developers over intentionally. That premise lacks any credibility at all.

Re: Sprint's gamble

pberry — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 17:33:58 -0000

We should also not assume that Sprint is only buying the 4GS, but would also have access to any new iPhone Apple _will_ release between now and the end of the deal. Sprint should be, in essence, bought in to future innovation. Any assumption that Apple will not release anything new in the next 4 years should be looked at quite skeptically.

Anyone who thought he wouldn't say something like this, or worse (which is what I expected), clearly has the wrong expectations of Mr. Stallman.

Re: ∞ Sprint cracks the whip on LTE deployment

pberry — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 12:56:02 -0000

I'm guessing this is a tough spot for Apple, on one hand they will love the speed and on the other they will have to deal with power issues. It's probably good news for them that they have this additional time to let Koomey's law (the energy efficiency of computers doubles roughly every 18 months) do what it does.

So, that's the justification line now? "Everybody" was thinking the same thing, so I'm off the hook because I was just as wrong as "everybody" else...wow.
