Crash analytics firm Crittercism released a new study this week, claiming that iOS applications crash more often than Android applications. After monitoring over 215 million apps across a wide range of different platforms, the report concluded that iOS 5.0.1 had the highest rate of application crashes. iOS in general also had more app crashes than its top competitor Android. These are interesting numbers that contradict the long held belief that iOS and the apps that run on it, are more stable than that of Android’s. So why such a large number of crashes on iOS?

If you’re a user of the social app Path, you’ll be happy to know it received a nice update this past Friday, adding support for 720p displays such as the Galaxy Nexus, HTC Rezound, and others. The app worked fine on these device before the update, but the on-screen buttons were quite small and hard to use. The update also fixes some bugs and adds additional features such as:

The Motorola DROID 4 is rumored to be launching in the next week and this 4th generation QWERTY received a lengthy hands-on with the guys over at Wirefly. For those who prefer a phone with a physical keyboard, the DROID 4 takes the cake. It features a dual-core 1.2 GHz processor, 4″ qHD display, edge-lit 5-row keyboard and Verizon’s 4G LTE. It already has a landing page over at DROID DOES where you can check out all the specs, and now thanks to Wirefly, a nice first look. If you were considering picking up the DROID 4, give the video a view after the break and keep your fingers crossed for a February 9th or 10th launch.

After this week’s topic, someone’s going to be spitting teeth. Our question: Is Siri Really A Revolutionary Feature? Android’s had voice actions and voice recognition for years, so what does Siri really bring to the table that’s new? Is it all just hype?

In one corner, we have the 900 pound gorilla, Cult of Mac; in the opposite corner, wearing the green trunks, we have the plucky upstart, Cult of Android!

Place your bets, gentlemen! This is going be a bloody one.

If you’re looking to be the guy who confuses everyone when you whip out your phone (is that a phone, is that a tablet?) you’ll be happy to know that Best Buy is opening pre-orders this Sunday for the Samsung Galaxy Note on AT&T. To sweeten the deal, Best Buy is throwing in a free flip case upon activation, but you’ll have to be quick as it’s a limited supply with no rainchecks. Samsung has spent a lot of money on Super Bowl ads for the Galaxy Note and they’re hoping that 90 second spot garners enough interest to get you running to the computer to pre-order one.
