Google search with voice and google+ and Gmail integration is much better than siri; Why doesn't apple leapfrog by opening up a Siri SDK to leverage it for other apps????
- Matthew Voshell
opening and Apple don't really belong in the same sentence
- Da
SDKs generally counter to Apple closed architecture control strategy
- Frank Paynter
They have a TON of SDK's; Mail for example by allowing my to email an article from Flipboard without flipboard having to create its own mail client. Imagine telling Siri to create a facebook post. Let the developers do all the heavy lifting

I still can't use Siri. It makes too many mistakes in understanding me. My Ford Sync is better

Anyone using the Novo 10 Hero Tablet?

Wasn't that what iAd's purpose? Why did it fail?
- Matthew Voshell
Apple are too slow in developing Web Products. They need to open up SDK for Maps, Calendars, Siri & AirPlay

Apple need more Data to counter act Google's huge database. They may need to either do deals or acquire Waze, Foursquare & Twitter

Tesla has a store down in the La Jolla shopping center. Those look pretty nice.

+Robert: True, they were expandable but easily overlooked; Flipboard is really onto something how they advertise, effective but not annoying
- Matthew Voshell
+Tina: Ford Edge has been catching my eye...
- Matthew Voshell
ummm... I think you people think I have more money than I do. Robert...when do you have C-Max?

There are app issues with both iOS and Android. One example - Wall Street Journal - their paid iPhone app - only works with the latest iOS release vs supporting all in reverse. So on 1,2,3 iPhones you can no longer access the mobile site.

Maybe it could be a Wow UI across all Devices

So guys - what do you make of the two media models - BuzzFeed inventing "native" advertising and Andrew Sullivan walking away from all ads to run a meter, subscription model?
- Dave Martin
A friend of mine had a computer terminal on his door in college in 1986
- Kevin Marks
The wow products are all on quirky, indiegogo, and kickstater... they are going to become devices that interact with our technology but make our analog lives much more automated... where are the floating chairs from Wall-E?!?!?
- Matthew Voshell
+Dave: I think services like Pandora and Amazon have it right by offering 2 options: Free but with advertising or Subscription with no ads
- Matthew Voshell
my son doesn't use his (original) iPad any more, just the MacBook Air he pinched off me
- Kevin Marks
BuzzFeed's native advertising is just advertorials rewritten. Andrew Sullivan can't scale without advertising, but he can probably support himself.

iPad 4 has more pixels than any HDTV

I tossed up b/t Roku and Apple TV and went with the Roku, Airplay wasn't advantages enough to over come all the content the Roku has...
- Matthew Voshell
Matthew: really? I don't find that to be true at all.
- Robert Scoble
@Robert: Amazon Prime Instant Video and HBOGo aren't on the apple tv... If they were i may have gone apple;

Rock Band was a harbinger - interaction around a TV, using sensors
- Kevin Marks
@robert: If you dont get your content from apple... then you are out of luck (absent netflix); If apple SDK thier Apple TV platform like Roku then there'd be no stopping them from taking over that market
- Matthew Voshell
Matthew: AirPlay lets me push videos to my screen from all sorts of non-Apple sources. YouTube. TED. CNN. Others.
- Robert Scoble
@Robert: Try doing that with amazon instant video and HBOgo app; Last i checked they wouldnt allow you to airplay the video... just the audio
- Matthew Voshell
Does anyone else find it funny that Netflix uses their video streaming competitor's AWS platform; and they suffer from "random" outages?
