Posted by Buster Heine at 12:43 pm on 05-23-2013

Last night Microsoft published its first Windows 8 Tablet vs The iPad ad that made fun of Siri, but the company’s not stopping there.

iPhone 5 Repair Costs Won’t Fall Until Apple Loosens Its Control Over Components

Posted by Killian Bell at 12:19 pm on 05-23-2013

Angry your dictation button has gone gray and useless? Here’s a fix that’s only slightly less annoying!

Posted by Rene Ritchie at 11:56 am on 05-23-2013
Dictation is a fantastic, Siri-like service on iPhone and iPad that, at the tap of a mic button, transforms what you say out loud into text on the screen.
