madmath··on Square Arrives in Canada
Read through it, could not find any grammar mistakes. I think it's fine.
madmath··on 4G LTE most anticipated for new iPad, says Twitter study
Well, I would say faster for the same price is better in this case, so the consumer is winning here... But you're right, that's plenty more than we need...
madmath··on Square Register
Agreed with the paid upgrade. Businesses are ready to pay for such things, especially when they bought a $500 iPad just for the purpose... what's $15 on a card reader? As was suggested, a cheap and free reader as well as a paid upgrade would work well I think.

Overall great product, and demo video!

madmath··on Google Killing Off Buzz and Code Search
I could see a product similar to code search being integrated into services like github and others. Code search wasn't perfect, it basically just searched code. What if you had a product that could, like an IDE, follow method declarations and the like? That'd be cool.
madmath··on Nokia Is Said to Be Near Software Partnership With Microsoft
I could imagine Nokia becoming just a phone hardware manufacturer (many have pointed out that they have great hardware) like LG or HTC, and integrate software from companies such as Microsoft. If Samsung, LG, HTC do it, how hard can it be?
madmath··on Big Just Got Bigger - 5 Terabyte Object Support in Amazon S3
"But I just want to serve 5 Terabytes!"

I like that they increased the limit, not 5x, not 100x, but 1000x. It clearly sends the message that they are the leaders in cloud storage.
