Do you guys have company deals? Like if I/My Company were to buy 100 Cases from you would you offer discounts? Do you guys also offer custom colors for bulk orders?

We do offer deals for large orders. We do not offer special colors other than the ones available, but we are now able to print company logos onto them for customization.

I am a Pc/Android guy. Actually my last 3 phones have been Samsung's. I now have the Galaxy S3 and it is an amazing phone and I don't even have 4.1 yet (should have it this fall). My wife has a HTC Evo and I was considering getting her an Iphone this fall when our upgrade comes but now that 4.0/4.1 are so easy to use and very stable I will be getting her a S3.

I hate how greedy Apple is being. There are so many companies that copy off each other. That is how you make a great product. You take something that works, make it your own, make it better and there you go. Actually there was alot that came out of the recent trial where Apple copied something that was around long before the Iphone.

[bova]

so you'd be fine if you came out with a bunch of products, offered other companies to use your patents for a price, but they decided they didn't want to and copied you anyways?

yes copying is fine but apple is trying to prove a point that you just don't deliberately steal ideas and try to make them your own.

So you say... You choose samsung over apple because of jobs? Those jobs are never EVER coming back to the US. Read all 5 pages of the article and see why. America is not a MFGing Capital anymore. Not when you can hire the entire city of NY in a matter of a week. Its not happening get that pipe-dream out of your head.


Furthermore, every electronics MFG unless explicitly stated has their electronics made in another country (China, Taiwan). Apple provides a shit ton of jobs in the US only their MFGing is done over seas.

It wasn't inspiration, It was Assimilation. Inspiration is like Google's New Helo look taking cues from Metro. Samsung blatantly copied Apple. The only reason it flew is because it was a quality copy.

Apple hasn't done anything innovative since the original iPhone. Luckily for them, their redundant product line has a following that will buy the same crap released in a different case every year with a new name and more or less features in a different case. Apple has become complacent and people are starting to realize that. Much like Toyota. You release the same thing long enough...only barely updating it and giving it just enough new features to stay with the curve...and eventually people start to get bored with your products. Toyota released the GT-86...Apple released a lawsuit.

Right... Because pushing the tablet market to accept a higher resolution display than any laptop computer has and putting it in a 10" Tablet screen... Then turning around and putting a 2560xXXXX resolution display and putting it in a laptop that thinner than 90% of the laptops on the market while making it as powerful as your common desktop.

Well, thats not innovating.. and thats nothing new. Nothing to see here!

LOL some people take this to the heart! lol yeah i phone is cool but its waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too limited and if you want more then you jailbreak it, but then apple cries about it, and even with that you dont get any of the cool shit you get with an android device, IMO i love how you can get an android and make it what you want and do whatever you want from it, restrictions are minimal and then you root your phone and a BAMF of a phone is born. But to all their own, i prefer android on my phone but apple on my tablet, why? iphone is slow and looks damn near the same as the old one, 3g suks and the screen is too tiny, ipad is legit and huge HD display. Other then that its android for me untill apple makes something that will be better than android on the phone side. Cuz IMO its the Ipad that inovative right now, but thats it. Oh and also why waste all that money on a 3.5 inch screen with retina display if you can barelly see that shit lol, if it was a bigger screen the fuck yea!! lol

So resolution and screen size are the claims to innovation. With how quickly the television industry advanced...it was only a matter of time before Apple's retina display was outshined by the likes of LEDs...so they pushed their "innovation" to market to get the patents out. Innovation? Or is it fear?

[SWAY]

The original iphone was their greatest achievement, after that people had to hold their hand for 3g and then voila a 3g iphone came out ( when 3g has been around for years already ). Then they polished a turd and released the 3gs a year later. After that people wanted mms, Mr. Jobs said nah people want to use email wayyy more, well they finally released mms ( thats been around for a while ).

He also said, people dont want huge phones, and thos 4" and 5" phones are way to big. Well those are some of the top selling phones in the world, hes eating his words from the grave. RIP Jobs, your a thief not an innovator, you brought back apple, but steered it in another wrong direction. The retina display has been the only thing they've created worth anything since the original iphone. Imo it doesnt look all that good, its colors are slightly off, yes my opinion knowing a lot do like the RD. The fact that i can tweak my galaxy nexus colors to make them perfect is exactly what people should have, a choice.

Is there an app you use to tweak colors? Or built into the os? If there's an app you use what is it? Thanks in advance.

Franco Kernel updater, but your phone must be rooted first.

There may be other apps, but Franco is the only one I know/use.

Phones rooted. Here's the kernel I'm using.



It sucks a big sack of ass in the area of color management. It is possible to flash another kernel even though this kernel is packaged with the ROM I'm using, right?

People who think like you were also the ones who invested heavily in the real estate market because it would NEVER crash. Saying manufacturing will never come back to NA is stupid.

China will eventually have unions as they make more money and time goes on. The workers will demand more etc and unrest will begin. Costs will go up, so much so that eventually they will have to go to other countries. Eventually, there won't be very many countries left for cheap labor, then manufacturing will come back to NA. Only a matter of time

Samsung all the way. I've owned three iPhones in the past but have switched to a Samsung Galaxy S3 and am not looking back. It's so much more of a versatile OS than iOS. I'm running CM10 nightlies right now and loving it.

HDTV Tech was behind resolution tech. There have been LCD Monitors capable of 1920 x 1080/1200 for YEARS. I had one of those monitors back in 2005 in my custom laptop. Yes, it was an innovation because no one else had pushed the envelope in any monitor sub 27". There were no 2560xXXXX resolution capable monitors in anything less than 27" for YEARS.

Now Apple pushes the envelope and comes out with a resolution very close to that in a 10" Screen. A resolution which Android Tablets still have yet to surpass. So yes, It is innovation whether you choose to believe it or not.

Wait, I'm sorry, did you have an argument there? Because all I see is an Ad Hominem. IF you think Unions and such are the reason Mfging went to China you obviously never read the article I posted. The only way MFGing jobs will come back to America is in robotics. Even then humans wont be doing the MFGing as much as they'll be doing the assembly, maintenance, and design of robots.

Simply put. We don't have the man-power to handle the MFGing the way China does.

@Koke382 - The point of the retina display is to make details crisper and better while maintaining readability. The retina display has a physical resolution of 960 x 640. But it has a virtual resolution of 320 x 480. The same goes for the Macbook Retina. So in short, the readability between the iphone 3g and iphone 4 really doesn't differ unless the sharpness bothers you. So "barely see that shit" doesn't apply. You will see that shit unless you have uncorrected vision.


As for CM10. It is much better. With Ice Cream Sandwich I really think Google did a great job and made an amazing OS. Theres no doubt that it is more functional and versatile than the iphone. Android is lagging behind in the times in many areas under the hood still but I feel that their UI and UX Experience is finally worth writing home about.

At this point there still is no way in hell i'd recommend Android to a non-tech oriented person. But I myself would trade in my iphone for a Samsung Note or HTC One X. I can't stand plastic phones. It needs to be something more solid for me; but thats a personal preference.

Functionality wise Android takes the trophy. But as for ease of use and application variety Apple really takes the cake.

Personally I loved my iPhone. When I recently switched back to a basic phone I felt naked all of the time. I'm a huge Apple fan, I have an iMac and had multiple powerbooks. I like the iOS for the simplicity and easy of use with my iMac, PowerBooks, AppleTV, etc. I do a lot of video editing and photography, so the Mac is a good platform for that, and you can do some pretty cool things w/ the iPhone when it comes to video editing. I personally haven't had an Android, and haven't had time to play much to give an honest opinion.

I gotta agree that apple products synchronization technology is yet to be matched by Google or its droid os. That being said, there are options (air sync, double twist, etc) that work WITH Apple products and do the same thing.

You can't have a simple thread with apple in the name and not turn into a android and apple warfare. It wasn't bad to have apple around bc it makes and drives innovation, but when they play the way they're playing it drives prices up and makes it hard to come up with new tech for the fact that oh shit apple might sue us for making a phone that's black or that has glass.
