Does Apple’s “when we feel like it” approach to security leave users hanging?

There's No Button Like the 'Home' Button

By P. J. Connolly

Rumor has it that Apple is testing new iPads and iPhones that lack a clickable "Home" button and rely instead on multitouch; this horrible idea shows that Apple has learned little from the debacle of the buttonless iPod Shuffle.

Verizon iPhone: Finally

Mac App Store Opens for Business

By P. J. Connolly

The Mac App Store debuted on Thursday, Jan. 6, providing a new way for developers who focus on Mac OS X applications to sell their wares online, in exchange for Apple taking a 30 percent cut of the proceeds.

Although Apple will undoubtedly call the Mac App Store a success, it’s disappointing to see that the company hasn’t learned from its earlier efforts.

Mac OS X 10.6.5 Released, but Where’s AirPrint?

By P. J. Connolly

Apple releases Mac OS X 10.6.5, but strangely, the update doesn't include the promised support for printer sharing with the AirPrint feature of iOS 4.2, which is expected to become available any day now. Is this latest example of Apple's failure to deliver on its public promises a disturbing trend, or just another regrettable exception to its string of successes in the consumer market?
