iPhone more vulnerable than Android, BB, and WP combined
Kind of a b/s claim, comparing apples to oranges... ;)

But this isn't: don't put vulnerable data on your phone. 'Cause if there isn't an exploit today, there might be tomorrow! :up
(Remember those secure USB flash drives! ;) )

Essentially they are saying that a malicious app has more possibilities to exploit on the iPhone, but that Apple seems to do a better job screening apps, and as long as you are not jailbreaking and downloading unapproved apps, you are probably safer on the iPhone than Android with malware leaking into the app store.

Seems like Apple is constantly having issues with the battery drain! iOS 6.0 introduced it and 6.0.1 was supposed to fix it.

If Apple doesn't release a larger screen iPhone this year it will be a mistake.

Apple seems to be having a lot of court problems now that Jobs is not here to distort reality. But, then again the new Apple strategy seems a lot less lawsuit intensive.

How many devices do HTC and the other android companies put out a year? I have upgraded my iPhone yearly since Verizon got the iPhone 4 and I just got the iPad 4 in December after owning the iPad 1. If they switch to more frequent releases it just means I will no longer get every new iPhone but it won't make my iPhone 5 any less useful.

I was a little upset when they released the iPad 4 not 6 months after the iPad 3, which I got two months after release.

Oh I can see that. I'm sure I would be a little upset myself. That is pretty much the way technology works though. Something better is always just around the corner and unless you have a lot more money than I do it's impossible to keep up. I lucked out and waited until after the iPad 4 was released but I'm sure your iPad 3 is still a great device and it's not any less useful than it was before the iPad 4 came out. Lately I have just tried to block it all out and avoid the upgraditis as much as possible.
