Been using iPad 3 since the 16th. Yesterday picked i up iPad 2 and its screen looked really poor. I didn't think that would happen.

iPad 3 heat levels Low-Down.

Minutes after starting the iPad 3 it is warmer than any tablet I have used across a broader area of the tablet, and I have used many extensively.  Once in a case, its barely noticeable - if at all.  All this attention is much ado about nothing.  UNLESS it causes the iPad 3 to crap out earlier when using outside in the sun, which I had the iPad 1 do to me under not-so-hot temperatures.  No one seems to testing that little gem of a possible limitation.  Otherwise the iPad 3's heat has been a nice companion on these cold early spring days.  But again, let's be strait.  It is warmer than pretty much any tablet out there in within a minute or two of turning on - but its not a big deal.

Macrumors.com: Study Shows 87% of iPhone 4S Users Use Once A Month

via macrumors.com

And in a related study, 99% of iPhone 4S users have used Siri in the past 6 months. What broad adoption! Siri rocks! Except in your car over Bluetooth. It doesn't work for sh*t there. Which ironically is really where it would be the most handy.

Why Do Domain Registrars Punish Persistent Customers?

Internet domain registrars all seem to charge you less if you are a new customer which really ticks me off.  On general principal I move my domains to a new registrar every renew cycle.  It's a pain, but I have to let them know the best way I know the way I feel the best way I know how - with my $.  So far www.1and1.com seems to have the best ongoing pricing with any hassles - but they STILL value new customers more than existing customers with discounts for new registrations.

Does anyone know of a registrar that doesn't do this?  (and doesn't charge through the nose)

Angry Birds Space Feels Like a Bait and Switch

Angry Birds has moved to a premium-freemium model. Gotta pay more to
get past the first two 'levels'. The description in the App Store
states this, but you have to click 'more' to see it. I would not have
bought the game knowing this was the case. I'm really becoming
disenfranchised with the whole App scene - especially when a market
trend setter is opting for this path for greater revenue.

When you have to read every ounce of description to know you are not
getting suckered, there is something wrong with the business ethics on
the App Store and now Rovio has firmly planted their flag in the App
Store Junk Yard.

FBI Downplaying Anonymous Too Much

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2012/02/04/us/fbi-admits-hacker-groups-eavesdroppin...

Anonymous may not have hacked FBI systems, but they seem to know who was associated with the call and compromised their system which shows a degree of insight into FBI operations.

On top of that, this article suggests the FBI does not check to see who is on a conference call before discussing sensitive information.

Anonymous doesn't have to use more sophisticated approaches in dealing with the government, the government is either arrogant or negligent and is leaving the front door right open.
