    Best online backup service for mobile?

    Does anyone know an affordable cloud backup service that is compatible with Android and iOS? Encryption is also very important to me. Any suggestions will be much appreciated!

    Starbucks app not compatible with G3

    Brilliant! It sounds like the plot to a new caper movie, "Starbuck's Eleven".

    Steve Jobs hatred towards android. wow!!

    I don't think he believed he created everything. He would often acknowledge stuff he got from other companies like Xerox. He must have just felt like Android was *too* similar to the stuff Apple came up with. That competitive edge is probably one thing that set Jobs apart from other CEOs and...

    Steve Jobs hatred towards android. wow!!

    I think he addresses this in a Q n A he did with Bill Gates. Mentions taking something from Xerox. He didn't seem like he was hiding the fact that he borrowed (or stole).

    #Hairgate

    It's like they rushed the 6, 6+ and iOS8 to market before rigorously testing them. I just made a thread about Hairgate that AC apparently deleted btw. #thisteathough

    Motorola Shamu. Most bizarre phone name ever?

    Ahem, technically Orcas aren't whales. They are the largest members of the same family that dolphins belong to. I've put more deep thought into the phone name, and I think that calling it Motorola Shamu is as silly as calling it Motorola Free Willy.

    Motorola Shamu. Most bizarre phone name ever?

    Shammu with two Ms is a Hindi name actually. Not sure where they got the name for the whale. Maybe from a Native American language? Motorola is just a combo of "Motor" and the suffix "-ola" which was popular for audio products back in the day. They used Motor because they started off by...
