a) That guy looks like he's wanting to start a fight.
b) I lifted my head up to try to look at what was on the tablet. Does that make me an idiot?
Yeah the 1300 inhabitants of the States will be pumped :S
You, sir, are an idiot.
'Shocking' charger recall program... I see what you did there Mr Ricker.
But if this doesn't happen, how many iPhones do you have?
@Name:

I have no idea who you're talking to or why you're saying that.

If you're commenting on the article, I think you misunderstood the writer's point. I think the writer's point was that there is room in the markets for different devices from different manufacturers which serve a similar purpose. If you're commenting about the "positive evangelism" point, I think you're taking an overly narrow view. The writer's point was not that (to take your example) Honda or Apple merely telling a consumer that their product is best would be enough to change the mind of a staunch critic of the products of those companies. The writer was instead encouraging information and commentary on "why [their] stuff is great" and stating that would be effective marketing for the products. That is, people might be initially opposed to buying a product but might be persuaded by reading reviews, hearing from their friends etc. and reassessing for themselves whether that product is worth buying.
But, somewhat mysteriously, your grammar deteriorated in four short minutes.
Combination comb-usb drive? I think this is the downside of device convergence that that cellphone inventor was talking about...
I made a more advanced version - using a real cat that I trained to operate my iPod upon my voice commands and then tethering it to the iPod.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
