I agree with everything except the CPU comparison.
Comparing CPUs is relevant only with all other things identical.
on the other hand, comparing a CPU with BlackBerry10 on one side and iOS on the other side is not relevant.
What matters is that BlackBerry10 is multitask, meaning better battery management.

What is the latest version in the Blackberry Z10 operating system?

What is the latest version in the Blackberry Z10 operating system?
I read in the internet that there is an update to the BB OS but when I run the update on my device it gives me a message saying that I have the latest software; i.e.. 10.0.10.82
Is this the latest, and if not, how can I get the device updated?

The latest version available at the moment is 10.0.10.99 but updates are carrier dependent.
So you have the latest version available for your carrier. Keep in mind that some small updates may not be applicable to your phone model or carrier network.

Tips to improve your BlackBerry 10 battery life (and avoid overheating)

The Blackberry z10 looked at by a novice

I think the Blackberry z10 is one of the best phones you can have because.
1) It is very easy to find your way around and set up, even if you are almost 60 like me.
2) You can connect to your WiFi and surf the net, even if you don't put a sim card in it.
This is a remarkable device and to think I bought it on ebay by accident.
Best wishes

HT4437 I have followed all relevant steps, my iPhone5 and apple TV are connected to the same wireless network, but I still cannot use airplay. When I choose the airplay option on my phone, the only option I get is "iPhone"

I have followed all relevant steps, my iPhone5 and apple TV are connected to the same wireless network, but I still cannot use airplay. When I choose the airplay option on my phone, the only option I get is "iPhone"

Welcome to the Apple Community Willy.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.

HT1688 Is there any App for blocking the International calls on my phone?

Is there any App for blocking the International calls on my phone?

No.
For security reasons, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone APIs which such an app would require.
You want to stop being able to place such calls or stop receiving such calls?
If the latter, try stopping it at the source by contacting your carrier.

What are the reasons for disabling the saving of data in a PDF?

I seem to have had more than my share of encounters lately with PDF files that have editable fields but have their data saving capability disabled.
In some of these situations this has been an absolutely maddening inconvenience.
When I attempt to bring this to the attention of whomever's responsible I get brushed off.
One person's response was: Actually the majority of the PDF forms I have are Adobe reader and you cannot make changes electronically at all. The reason for this is to make sure that the documents are not altered in any way. The <companies creating the PDFs> must make sure that changes are not being made to their forms.
I just don't understand that. How is entering and saving data 'altering' a PDF?
Is this just bone-headed bureacracy, an urban legend, or is there some fundamental practical matter I am not aware of?

Saving a filled-in form has always been disallowed with Adobe Reader, formerly known as Acrobat Reader. Though there are a few exceptions...
History lesson:
Forms features were first introduced in Acrobat 3. As you might imagine, a number of folks wanted to be able to save filled-in forms using Acrobat Reader. Since this functionality simply was not a feature of Reader, it was not possible. If you wanted to save a filled-in form, you needed to use Acrobat (Exchange).
Upon recognizing the potential market for a product that they could sell, Adobe developed and released Acrobat Business Tools, which was a version 4 product. It was positioned between Reader and Acrobat, was reasonably priced, and allowed users to save filled-in forms, apply digital signatures, and add comments. Unfortunately, this was marketed poorly and did not achieve commercial success.
The next iteration was a similar product named Acrobat Approval, which was a version 5 product. It too could save a filled-in form, but was in some ways more limited than Business Tools, and suffered a similar fate. That is, it was not a market success. It was however distributed for free to US taxpayers on the IRS tax products CD-ROM.
The next idea from Adobe - which was a good one - was to provide for a means of embedding usage rights in a PDF document. These rights would allow Reader to do things it normally would not be able to do, such as saving a filled-in form, adding comments, importing/exporting form data, creating new pages using templates, connecting to databases and web services, etc. At first, the only way to enable these usage rights was with an expensive product from Adobe, so the potential was initially not realized.
With the release of Acrobat 7, Acrobat users were able to add some usage rights, such as commenting. While this was a welcome addition, folks still wanted to be enable forms to be saved with Reader. Finally with the release of Acrobat 8 Pro, users were able to enable forms to be saved with Reader, but it came with licensing restrictions. In short, if the licensee distributed the form for more than 500 recipients, the licensee could use data from no more that 500 copies of a particular form that was returned to them, including hardcopies. This was great for forms used inside of an orginization, but not so great for forms that needed to be used by the general public. Still, it was a very useful feature for a majority of businesses for internal forms, the vast majority of which have fewer than 500 employees.
Acrobat 9 or 10 didn't change things. Adobe still wants to capitalize on this market, which certainly is not a bad thing for Adobe and their stockholders. The US IRS forms have long been saveable with Reader because they licence Adobe Reader Extensions, which provides revenue for Adobe.
Note that some third-party PDF viewers allow users to save filled-in forms whether or not the documents have usage rights. Such software has a different marketing model than does Adobe Reader/Acrobat, and rides the coattails of Adobe by taking advantage of the popularity of PDF forms.

Tips For Choosing the Best Samsung Cell Phone Battery

It is difficult to imagine the world would be like if you do not use a mobile phone! We have become so dependent on the use of Samsung mobile phones, we will be panic, if we mistakenly forgot at home. The Samsung mobile phone is a key part of most people's lives, and get them up every minute of friends, family and business partners.
Taking into account a new Samsung mobile phone purchase, but also consider the Samsung mobile phone battery. Here are some suggestions to help.
More standby time and talk time, you should choose a Samsung cell phone battery with high capacity. However, when you select a high-capacity Samsung mobile phone battery, there will be a heavier weight. A bigger Samsung cell phone battery, cell phones can not enter the cell phone pocket, or protectors. If you plan to travel a lot with the phone, which could lead to a problem, your phone may not be easy to carry.
Select the Samsung cell phone battery, lower cost, and may not be the best choice, quality. Make sure you ask if you buy a new battery or refurbished one, which is a key issue! Tips to find a renovation is the incredibly cheap price. Refurbished batteries may have old parts, it may not work as effectively as a new battery.
Buy a new battery, you get a guarantee that if you have any questions? Remember, some just do not work, as long as expected. Usually Samsung phone manufacturers will provide a new battery only when it is purchased in a specified amount of time.

Is the Blackberry line of smart phones compatible with Mac OSX?

Just wondering about how compatible they really are in terms of syncing address book, calendar, bookmarks etc with the phone.

Since this is the iPhone discussions area, I think a better place for your question is the Blackberry discussions area if RIM provides the same or similar for the Blackberry.

Are there specific reasons for choosing Oracle A/S 10g OVER IBM Websphere ?

Our company runs a number of Oracle applications and currently supports both the IBM Websphere and Oracle
10g A/S application servers. We use Oracle A/S to run Oracle Forms/Reports, as
well as to interface from Oracle Advanced Queues (A/Q) to the outside world
(with JMS over A/Q). The idea being floated is to use Oracle A/S only for our
Forms/Reports server and IBM Websphere for everything else. Is there any
downside to this ?
Is there anything Oracle A/S can do that IBM Websphere cannot ?
Would any features of Oracle A/Q not be accessible when using WebSphere ?
We are also planning to use Oracle Workflow. Would there be any advantages to using Oracle A/S over Websphere ?

'Fraid I'm not experienced in running Oracle products with Websphere but I'd have thought that the most obvious reason to use OAS would be that (theoretically at least!) AQ and Oracle Workflow should be better integrated into OAS and also recieve better support from Oracle if you are using OAS as your apps server rather than another vendor's product. The risk is that you might get into a situation where something doesn't work and Oracle say it's Websphere, phone IBM and IBM say it's AQ - phone Oracle.

The reason for all the negative posts

Got mine last night. Love it. Activation went perfectly.
I usually have a lot of luck with technical stuff mainly because I READ ALL THE INFORMATION before starting. You find that nearly all complaints are coming from people who had some 'grand vision' in their head that they'd open the box and immediately iPhone would work just like the pretty advertisments they saw.
As for AT&T's delay in activating for you, Did you not read that there would be delays expected with all the iPhone sales? Or is that another thing you chose to ignore.

I am happy all of you assume the people like I who are having trouble did not read the instructions! Not only did I read the instructions, I went through the on-line tutorials.
I activated the way they told me to! You assume too much. I have been waiting 16 hours...not to mention the 7 month wait just to get this iBrick, or iPaperwieght. Whichever you like. They had 7 months to get all the glitches out. It was dumb to release on a friday and especially dumb to not activate in the store. All this could have been avoided.
IF THEY WANTED TO EXPERIMENT WITH A NEW WAY OF ACTIVATING, THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE IT ON A PHONE THAT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SO POPULAR, SO THEY COULD WORK THE GLITCHES OUT ON A SMALL # OF PEOPLE, NOT ON "THE LARGEST LAUNCH EVER."

How to use selfie stick on the blackberry z10?

Blackberry please make selfie sticks compatible, we are already missing on so much. Can we just have this?

It is not the same as SMS texting. Texting counts towards the monthly limit of texts that you negotiate with your cellular provider, while iMessage is a free messaging service that functions between iOS devices. This link will tell you all about iMessage.
Apple - iMessage
To set it up, go into Settings > Messages > turn iMessage "ON"

Try logging into BlackberryID on a pc, check if the phone is associated with the ID.

Locked - Tips for Choosing the Right Video and DVD Converter

Spam content removed by moderator.

They are ALL 7200 RPM. I wouldn't suggest anything less.
I need something with 7200 RPMS +RAID Protection
For $600? Not gonna get more than RAID 1, and that isn't recommended for video editing...not really fast enough for anything other than DV. Of the ones I mentioned, only the Caldigit VR is capable of Raid 1. For hardware Raid 5 you need at least 3 drives (internally on a Mac Pro with a Caldigit Raid card, or Apple Raid card, for example)...or a 4-5 drive enclosure with eSATA or miniSAS connection. Can't be had for under $1000. Looking at least at $2000.
That Promise SmartStor...that's for DATA, not VIDEO. Software RAIDs aren't reliable for video. In my experience. But get what you want.
