Thats nothing, when I joined the comping world I use to multitask on 640x480 on a 12" CRT.... how things changed :D

Back then I went wow when my new FX card that cost about R1000 pushed Windows 3 to 800x600 res with 256 colours.
 
Lol...Apple sounds the whistle and the sheep come running....

Sorry, had to :(

On a serious note, why would this Apple guy come out and say this? It surely points to them feeling intimidated? One of the big news sites even commented on the timing on the Apples statement, saying that 'Apple still wanted to imply they were relevant' with Samsungs new flagship Android device taking all the limelight...

Found the quote:
"Schiller's comments come at a time when Apple faces increased competition from Android and Samsung directly, while investors and analysts are eager to hear how the company plans to ensure the iPhone will continue to compete against big screen Android devices this year. Apple isn't expected to launch a new iPhone for months, but Schiller is clearly attempting to ensure Apple is part of the conversation as Samsung launches its new flagship later today."

1 year old software, yet still 2 years ahead of iOS, game, set, match Apple. All you're playing now is catchup.
 
Okay great. Just to comment on your issue with copying media using iOS, it's a lot easier in fact as easier to copy files over wifi if your iPad/iPhone is rooted. As easy as on my S3. I have an issue trying to access music and movies via usb with my HDRyan and car head unit using my S3 because of the stupid MTP connection method not being read. My iPod has no issues. Each platforms has it's strengths and weaknesses, you just need to know how to make them work and use what works best for you.

Ok then I stand to be corrected. I love the build quality of the iphone but the OS I don't like one bit. They say it's userfriendly and all that but I find it more cumbersome and irritating.

Guess rooting the device is the best choice to bring it in line with the advantages of Android....
 
Ok. What about what I said was trolling. I specifically pointed out how fragmentation hurts developers. I additionally explained what API's were, and gave examples of the good new API's you don't get on older versions. Now explain how that is trolling?

From the book "Sam's teach yourself Android application development in 24 hours", chapter 20 (developing for different devices)...

So, either you knew this and trolled anyway or you are a piss poor developer.
 
These debates make this forum so attractive. Love them. The Apple Attack Sheep vs the Android Strike Team. Better than following the Super 15.

Only problem is I normally hit auto-join and play on whatever side the server puts me(the mood I am that moment). And yes I do that on all games 2 :D
