Amusing that you're getting downvotes for this, I doubt that a single person that down voted you has actually driven an EV. A test drive and some TCO math was all that was needed to get me into a Leaf when I threw a rod through the engine block of my previous ICE (Subary Legacy).

I made the mistake of buying an iPad Air with only 16GB (I do keep all my files in the cloud... but 16GB isn't even enough to install all the applications I'd like to have on it!) so I've been waiting on something newer and hotter to arrive to upgrade to an iPad with more storage. My main uses...

IANAL, but I like it! A warning like this could also appear on the Transmitter (controller) screen each time it's powered up, sort of like the old "FBI WARNING" you'd see every time you watched a VHS tape...

The only regulation or absolutely essential guideline that's needed, and should be very clearly marked on the packages of drones weighing more than about a pound, is this: Do not fly over or within 100ft of bystanders, roads, or power lines. Do not exceed 400ft of altitude or fly within 5...

Team Nana reporting in!! I've been flying FPV multi-rotors since last summer, and I've found your videos to be some of the best educational material out there (Flite Test was my other favorite as a n00b), and first and foremost I want to say THANK YOU -- both for teaching me so many of the...

To me, it only makes sense if the chromebook is running some merged version of Android and ChromeOS. Plenty of people use Android tablets with a keyboard and mouse (or a dock that has a touchpad and a keyboard), and there was a Chrome plated Android statue installed at a Google building lately...

The underlying story here isn't Gaben trying to protect Steam on the PC platform, it's that the folks at Steam want a piece of the console market. Let me explain that in two parts. Steam is absolutely dominant in the world of PC gaming. It's not without competitors even as things sit now...

I'm just surprised that you feel that it's fair to judge the quality of the to-be-produced units based on, in your own words, "a scant few seconds to touch real working devices." When the iPhone4 was introduced, a scant-few-seconds impression at the keynote left people feeling like it was a...

Sorry, but that's not at all the same thing as actually getting your hands on one. How much would you have been able to tell about the iPad had someone showed you a non-working demo unit 6 months before it was released? From Peter in the Chat: So again, it's shocking that there's this much...

I thought you mentioned in the chat that even journalists haven't gotten to use the keyboards yet?!?

First, as a general format, this was really cool, and I'd love to see more of it. As far as the content of discussion, I was really shocked that the Surface was such a serious topic of conversation -- especially hearing talk about how good the build quality is when nobody has even been able to...

This article is total fluff, a complete non-story. This is far below Ars standards for articles, and as far as I'm concerned they should be looking for a new Gaming Editor immediately. The problem isn't just that the article isn't particularly interesting, it's that the author clearly has no...

I'm really happy that Microsoft has actually responded to some of the criticisms of Win8, particularly the awful multihead experience. That said, it still raises an eyebrow when you're talking about major UX changes as well as a complete rehaul of the look/feel when you're this close to...

Feeding the troll, and giving him free advertising: http://usa.kaspersky.com/products-servi ... us-for-mac What comes out of this guy's mouth isn't even worth listening to, making a ridiculous claim like this is pure marketing for his own product. I'm glad it's summarily dismissed, but it's...

It should really be mentioned that only people with Spotify accounts can listen to the embedded track, making this feature much less useful than if all comers could listen.

If you want a full blown Desktop Environment, install a Linux Distro of your choice. ChromeOS is intended to be as simple as lightweight as possible, thus the simple and lightweight window manager. I actually find it encouraging that the layout is very Windows-like, it means they're being...

It's great to see this kind of responsive followup after so many of the comments in the Lumia 900 review noted that the issues presented in this article represent a huge concern to many potential buyers. It's also a great reminder of why I'm an Ars reader in general -- even though I'm anything...

I'd also like to throw in a request for comparing the device to Android as well as iOS. The iOS comparisons made are spot-on and insightful, but as a Galaxy Nexus owner I was really interested to see how WinPhone's first true "flagship" stacked up against it, and was rather disappointed that...

Either you're trolling, or stuck in 1992. Since you're referring to a browser as "a very complex code," I'm going to lean toward trolling. Requiring a full round of QA & Regression testing after every single commit (and given the timeframe in which it was fixed, this was likely a single commit...

Multicore processor support? NFC support? Full device encryption support? Different Screen Resolutions? MicroSD Storage? VOIP integration? Standard types of communication between apps? Features for metered bandwidth usage and monitoring? Funny, my Galaxy Nexus already has every single one of...
