There are some really interesting articles out there, floating about on the Internet. Our eye got caught on one in particular.

While this 128-gb device is wi-fi only, we think that a lot of customers will go for the higher capacity—those apps, music and episodes of favorite tv shows take up a lot of room.
What do you think? Will you purchase the bigger device, or stick with your current device.
You may need more battery life on your next flight.
After months of safety testing, the Federal Communications Commission sent a letter to the Federal Aviation Administration to change the current policy of asking passengers to turn off electronic devices during takeoffs and landings.
How great would it be to not have to wait for the captain to announce that it is safe to turn on allowed electronic devices? This means that you can use your smartphone to finish that level in Star Wars Angry Birds or finish reading that magazine on your iPad uninterrupted.
