    So which company is "innovating" in the public/media eye? The iphone 6 was "easy to make"? Miniaturization and the complex organization needed to do system on a chip is now just "no big deal?"

    The SOC on the iwatch i would bet MONEY is better than almost any other specialized chip ... Including that in military hardware or in the space program.

    In other words we need "something" to justify a P/E ratio north of 50 so we have a "better" stock price.

    Honestly, the media and analysts dont seem to know ANYTHING...

    collaboration - ecosystems - networks - content - scalability - execution - design

    Apple is pretty impressive if you ask me.

It's impossible to run a company with $180B in revenues like a small start up just focusing on a small number of products.




    I was thinking about my prediction days before the announcements a week ago, when I was adding Apple 3.0 to all my posts. Was that you that used Apple 3.0 first?



    Because I'm actually thinking that it should be Apple 4.0.



    1) Macintosh

    2) iPod

    3) iPhone/iPad - iOS

    4) Apple ID Personally Integrated Services and Wearables



    Thoughts?

     

    We'll let you know in 2021.

    No need to be clever. iPod: 6 years. iPhone+iPad: seven years. ?Watch: six years. That's all.

    Guess it had to happen sooner or later. The fashion police have helicoptered in to AI! :D

    I would say we knew less than 2 years after the iPhone announcement, that we were definitely experiencing Apple 3.0. Same time with the iPod/iTunes era.

    Please... be clever or try harder....don't go all lazy on us... or are you commiserating that Scotland didn't just "go away"...? :D
