  • Wi-Fi 7 speeds are almost as fast as Thunderbolt 3

    320 MHz-wide channels are not good news.  The biggest win in 6 GHz (Wi-Fi 6e) is the fact that we get 14 non-overlapping 80 MHz channels capable of 1.2 Gbit/sec (for typical phones/laptops that support 2 spatial streams).  In 5 GHz, there were only 4 of those non-overlapping 80 MHz channels, creating huge interference problems in dense residential/commercial areas. With Wi-Fi 6e, everyone can finally have their gigabit.

    We simply don't have enough 6 GHz spectrum for people to be hogging 320 MHz with each Wi-Fi access point  It's rude.

  • iPhone 12 can act as 5GHz Wi-Fi hotspot, boon for 5G

    Yeah, this has literally nothing to do with 5G. Even tethering from a 3G HSPA connection is going to see major performance improvements from moving out of the noisy 2.4 GHz spectrum and getting a wider band.

  • Apple's Notes for Mac to support Evernote file imports in OS X 10.11.4

    Let's note that Apple has refused to offer any way to export your iCloud notes.  Unlike Evernote, they would prefer that your notes stay trapped in their proprietary database.

    To copy notes, open the Notes app at iCloud.com. Copy the text of each note and paste it into a document on your computer, such as a Pages or TextEdit document. Save the document to your computer.
    To export your notes as PDF, open the Notes app in OS X Mountain Lion or later. Select the note, then click File > Export as PDF and choose a location.
