@SteveJobsIsAnAss

What's the "we" in you comment. as we by definition includes me all i can say that "We" don't need to need some news about the iPhone to jack that price up

I have my Milestone for a week now and have absolutely no problem with the keyboard, I really like the feedback it gives.

...... What I would change about the droid/milestone?.... I guess more internal memory above everything else.

Read the article: navigation is working AS WELL AS multitouch, the best of both worlds I would say

Google downsizes AndroLib's Android Market app count by a few grand

Of the 60 apps I installed so far there is only 1 that had problems with my 2.0 device (minor layout issues still usable). Anyway you will see it will become less of an issue when Android matures, remember Android 1.0 is only about a year old.

There are less than 50 fart apps on the Android market. Last time I checked the apple store there were many times this number available for the iPhone.

Now to answer your question: Zero (as I´m perfectly capable of producing farts myself and they smell much better then those apps ! )

Many of these iPhone fans that are yelling about those 100000+ apps are OS X fans as well but in the discussions Mac vs PC, when the subject of number of programs come up, they always argue that the number of programs (or games) does not matter, they only need one program to edit their movies ect...

Sure, I am pleasantly surprised about the quality of the Apps after the first three days playing with my Milestone. moreover I´m baffled by the the small sizes most of the apps have. (for example Complete Google Sky is just 63Kb in size... really amazing)

ComScore: iPhone overtakes Windows Mobile use for the first time in US

Probably Android IS outselling WinMo the graphics shows "devices (and thus operating systems) currently in use" not current sales figures.

Android Market hits 20,000 apps, over 60 percent free

@gerrrg

And you think 100000 apps fit in an iPhone? (that does not has any way of expanding memory using memory cards)

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm looking for a wireless trackpad to use with my older (2.5 or so years old) C2D MacBook that's perpetually docked to my home theater. Something sleek, thin, not too small, made of high quality materials. Ideally, it would natively support all of (Snow) Leopard's multitouch inputs, and even more ideally, it would have a charging dock / base. The only problem is that I'm not sure that such a thing even exists. Think you can throw me a bone?"
