1. Comment - Apple was NOT more profitable selling cell phones than Nokia in Q3

   I get it, you aren't big on Apple, that's fine, but at least have some kind of concrete facts before you go blabbing this kind of mindless crap. Apple actually made 3.85bn this quarter, the 1.6bn was subscription revenue. I have always thought of betanews as a reputable news source for tech, but this finally killed it for me. I am so sick of reading these kind of articles from this site. I have been a loyal betanews reader for years, and am now through, this idiocy is the straw that broke this camel's back.

2. Comment - Apple TV lineup shuffled, major updates expected

   I have owned an AppleTV since its release. 40gb is all that was offered at the time and is perfect for me. The beauty of AppleTV is that it can do this magical thing called "streaming". When you are streaming data from a server the capacity of the end device isn't such a big deal.

3. Comment - Should AT&T be obliged to enable Skype for the iPhone?

   Actually, as a graphic designer I use Macs. I have for years, long before they were considered cool. The simple fact remains that for design, a Mac is far superior to a PC. Because PDA manufactures fail to recognize that people in the design business use Macs, I had limited sync and update capabilities with previous phones. Enter the iPhone, a PDA phone made for the Mac, now everything that I have is compatible ... that's what makes it cool. I could care less who else has one.

4. Comment - TiVo Series 3 software update adds ads

   (Apr 6, 2009 - 11:02 PM)

   This kills me! I pay a service fee and if that isn't enough, charge me more or let me go! The Tivo service that I signed up with had no ads, that is how I justified paying for it over an inferior Comcast or Dish DVR. If they keep throwing extra "features" like this at users, they will go the same way that AOL did when it covered its paid software with ads. If this keeps up I will go back to my supped up mac mini with eyeTV and an HDMI output.

5. Comment - Circuit City might close 150 stores, as possible bankruptcy looms

   As a former CC employee, I was there when it all went down hill. Older, more experienced commission employees were phased out for younger untrained cheap kids. Despite this, I have always prefered CC to BB. BB has horrible customer service, the same untrained kids, and no reguard for their customers or employees because they know that they are number 1 and no one (except Walmart) comes close in volume. BB's only redeeming quality is Geeksquad which is wildly overpriced for the poor customer service.
