The US Copyright Office in 2010, stated Jailbreaking iOS devices is legal. Now this exemption is running out. I would like to hear what you think about rooting or jailbreaking. I'm doing some research of my own and want any information, whether you oppose Jailbreaking/Rooting or you're in favor, I want to know. Please be as detailed as possible when replying, so that your comment is not misconstrued.
Sure it can take two inputs but the amount of mistakes it did when I typed fast made me want a physical keyboard instead. Pretty cool idea but a bit on the hefty side as it's a laptop with two screens.
) It's well worth upgrading the memory to 2 GB, but the upgrade process is brutal. This is only for the brave. Windows 7 starter edition really doesn't limit what you can do with this. It performs nicely.
No dice. A Crucial module of the same spec worked flawlessly, however. A Patriot 1066 module booted, but was very flakey. I put Win7 Pro on there and it is also a vast improvement over Starter. The WiFi has excellent range. The glossy plastic on the lid is a real dust and fingerprint magnet. Portal and Tron 2.0 have excellent sharpness and frame rate on the default settings. Sorry, but those are the only two PC 3d games I own. I prefer consoles when I have the option. The trackpad is good for a...

I need to be able to back up the desktop and MBP (preferably with Time Machine on the MBP) and stream video to both computers and my Xbox. Can anyone tell me if this device will work with all those needs?
Hey guys. Need a favor. I'd like to upgrade from my trusty Dell Inspiron 1427 laptop. Let me know any suggestions you have for a Midrange laptop (13-15 inches / 4Gb Memory/ 320 to 500Gb HDD/ midrange graphics card) and if it has an option for a backlit keyboard..
I'm looking for a laptop. But here's what I'm looking for: These are a must: NFC DLNA Bluetooth at least 1 USB 3.0 port but must have at least 2 usb ports An HDMI port (In and out if possible touch screen (possibly a convertible laptop) and a camera (for video chat. i don't plan on sing this for photography. it looks stupid) Can't be over 14 in in width, High-Res Display. Optical drive not necessary. looking for a thin laptop. Core i5 or i7 cpu, max out ram at 8 GB (can't sit pretty t 4 gb or ram) 1 gb...

[I would prefer an Android-based tablet since I'm already familiar with that platform.]
By "best tablet" I mean, which is the most reliable and intuitive device for running PowerPoint? What about connecting the tablet to a projector? Do they all have mini HDMI? Of course I wouldn't be designing the presentations on the tablet, simply running them.
I'm in the market for a new laptop after three years. Now I'm the kinda guy who doesn't mind spending a couple hundred dollars more right now to get something that seems like overkill at the present, so long as it keeps me chugging along at a decent pace for two or three years. Basically, I don't like to throw down money for a new gadget every year. This brings me to my question: Are there any decent touchscreen laptops available these days? I ask because it's patently obvious that that's the...

I'm not looking for anything too special. But cheap would be nice. I wouldn't say I need a huge hard drive, as I don't hold much on it, and the one I currently have is like 100GB and it has served me fine. I would like to stick with Windows 7.. The only little thing I might want would be a somewhat decent video card, as from time to time I still get random urges to play games.
My wife is looking into buying a Macbook Air 13", but one of the key concerns is the lack of disc drive. I don't think it's a big concern, but I think having access to a disc could be important. Buying the Apple Superdrive is $80, so that's somewhat pricey considering it doesn't play blu rays, but I don't know how much better it is than the $45 LG external player I saw in this week's Best Buy weekly ad. I have been trying to find a decent blu ray external drive on ebay/amazon but it seems that...

With Google's recent announcement of the reboot to Chrome OS, I was wondering who else apart from me is going to purchase one of the new Chromebooks, either from Samsung or Acer?
and the whole screen goes haywire - anyone else having the same experience? Also the Facebook app keeps crashing and the Facebook webpage shows a "Connection Error" most of the time - again, anyone else experiencing this?
Managed to re-attach one key, but the other seems to be missing part of its scissor switch. The pieces resemble a rectangular bracket and an oval bracket; the oval part is the one that went to the land of the lost. Luckily the keys weren't anything important (drop-down window and the right-hand Ctrl key), the missing key is more of an ugly annoyance than anything else. Does anyone know anywhere I can buy a replacement switch for my keyboard?
From everything I've read, it's nearly a dead on tie between the Asus Eee Pad Transformer and the Acer Iconia a500 tablets; both Tegra2, 1gb ram. I'm having the hardest time deciding between the two. The clear winner appears to be Asus per the IPS screen. But the Iconia build quality seems better; I like the aluminum. I don't plan on using a keyboard dock. I like the Iconia's usb ports and standard round power connector. I'm just worried about the tft screen and non...

I found an Australian website that sold a higher capacity battery but it wasnt https and looked sketchy(actually all laptop battery sites look sketchy). I want the one thats supposed to last 8 hours or an even high capacity one
I'm looking for a latest-gen , low-power, quiet nettop with enough grunt to run j.River Media Center and a few plugins - whic, hopefully should be within the domain of machines like these. However it needs eSATA to talk to an external disk subsystem, and Firewire to talk to a Prism Orpheus sound module (since I'm only running stereo, FW400 is fine). What should I choose?
