Soooooo, any rumors or clues as to what the Big Announcement will be?  Gayle King says it’s not a new product but it is very important.

    I’ll pull something out of my ass and say it might be a huge, significant purchase/merger. Or maybe an announcement that iOS will be open to third party app stores.

    Or possibly The Board is shutting down the company, selling the assets and giving the money back to the investors. Maybe Michael Dell was right all along.  o:)

    Could be a service.  Not a product, from a certain point of view.

    Money related?

    A large funding effort for some 'world' projects? Something akin to the Gates Foundation?

    Yeah... No. 
    It's a $100 million fund for answering racial injustice. Not what I'd call "a major announcement" but certainly a worthy outreach. 

    BTW, congrats Avon.  You were on the right track, just reaching a bit higher.

    Good lord. Tim Cook, you are no longer the CEO of Apple. You are a political activist stealing from Apple’s piggy bank.

    Every large corporation does stuff like that.  If you don't like it, don't buy their products.
