How-To: Get the best iPhone trade-in price deal to help buy a new iPhone 6S

Update: In the year since we posted this, we’ve decided to seek out the best partner and do the trade ins ourselves.

Flash’s demise continues as Amazon stops accepting Flash ads due to browser settings

Amazon may have been Apple’s target when it unveiled its iBooks Store alongside the iPad in 2010, but the digital retail giant’s latest move is helping fulfill Steve Jobs’ vision of a web without Flash. Amazon Advertising issued an update to its technical guidelines today declaring that it will stop accepting Flash-based ads starting next month.
