Re: [Bulk] Re: repeating string
I am fed up with this Piper system. This AM, I couldn't connect at all to the working piper, when I launched the ios app I was prompted to run wifi setup and to double tap the piper power button before connecting to its wifi, BUT after selecting the Piper wifi, it never gets the check mark in my wifi settings, meaning that my iPhone 5S can not connect to it. I have tried powering the Piper off and on but I always end up back with being unable to connect to the Piper or reconfigure. Sorry but this system just does NOT work. If I thought I could get my investment back, I'd ask for it. This system is sucking down AC and asside from warming up the room, does nothing useful.

If I make a fork / mod its distribution could also be tracked. Not, I hesitate to add, that I have all that much to hide, but this begins to look like the British government's surveillance of everybody and the excuse that as we have nothing to hide we shouldn't protest against blatant violations of privacy. 3. specially encrypted license file; why on earth is that necessary?

Re: new iPhone 4s
What is rate of return on iPhone 4 vs competitive solution ? And same question as it applies to an iOS app vs ?

As a side note, when Apple first introduced the iPhone 4, Android had only 9% of the smartphone market. Now, only 16 months later, it has passed Apple's 27% with an almost 44% share. Wow! Talk about growth and adoption rate. http://www.slashgear.com/comscore-android-nears-44-of-us-smartphone-market-share-05185688/ And regarding Apple's lackluster performance yesterday, even the Apple fans agree: http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/10/05/apples_iphone_4s_event_seen_lacking_panache_allowing_android_to_gain.html The trend is clear. For a short time, Apple owned the market in Smartphones, but no longer. Apples tablet marketshare has dropped another 20 points over the past year. Apple's incredible designs and features have been copied and many eclipsed by the competition-- and for a lower price. Those who are brand loyal stick with Apple. Those who are value and feature conscious will migrate. Back to ATT. The salesperson told me how surprised he was to see the many of iPhone users asking the same questions today about Android smartphones. And here's the rub: whether you agree with him, or me, the fact is when I switch to Android, I take a whole lot of folks with me. I have 5 iPhone users on my ATT plan. I influence many other close relatives and family members who look to me to provide advice on these sort of difficult decisions. I also have quite an active social media profile. I suspect there are also many leading edge consumers who are considering a switch which will affect others similarly. So, my prediction. I believe within 3 years of Jobs not being chairman, iOS devices will be in the 30% marketshare for both tablets and phones OR Apple will begin licensing iOS to other manufacturers. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
