Apple loses three Indian executives as company struggles with iPhone sales
I have family in India and all of them are iPhone users. However, most middle to upper class Indians have some family in the US or Canada or UK. They are wealthy enough to pay the premium in India for the iPhone but smart enough to just pick it up when they visit their family abroad or ask their family to bring one for them when they visit during the Christmas holidays. A couple of hundred dollars is still a couple of hundred dollars. The Indian mentality about spending money is what Apple really needs to understand. In my view, in order to grow sales in India Apple will have to accept a lower margin on each phone and build loyalty into the population through price. That will pay dividends in the long run. -
Apple Watch ban back on, court denies Apple's appeal to keep it on the market

'The Problem With Jon Stewart' canceled after two seasons on Apple TV+
It wasn't the Daily Show when Jon was top dog but it was still an excellent show. If Apple is going to host a show with Jon Stewart I'm pretty sure editorial control would have been agreed to up front. However, ultimately, those who foot the bill can pull the plug anytime and thus they ultimately have full control. Sad to see. -

Retina MacBook Pro owners plagued by supposed screen coating damage, call on Apple to take action
Quote:Originally Posted by IndyFX
True... bit in reality none of the "gates" actually represented actual problems that significant % of users were having
Antenna gate simply demonstrated that (all) cell phones reception can be affected by wrapping your hand around them. (like that was a mystery)
This "small cadre" of users has damaged their screen by applying something to it (hydrofluoric acid?)
Why they did this is questionable, that they aren't admitting that the damage was inflicted (while other purport that this is "normal" when it isn't) I find rather -dubious-
It's quite a stretch (assumption) to think that all the people reporting this problem have damaged the screens themselves by applying something to it. What rational person would apply HCL to clean a screen. Preposterous! I clean my retina 15" screen with the cloth that came with my iPhone and water. I have this issue. I've owned about 10 mac laptops and never had this problem before. Obviously this is a manufacturing issue on some of the screens.
