The only way I buy any fitness equipment is if I buy it outright and it’s fully functional without any sort of subscription. Period.

Do the people drive with their nose in the maps app of their choice without watching the road? The app may say take a left but hopefully you have your eyes open and see the issue that the street is closed or now pedestrian only. But when a city …

Since around iPhone 8 all iPhones have been Japan compatible including US iPhones. Previously you had to have a Japan compatible iPhone to use Japanese NFC based services. I’ve happily used my virtual Suica and Pasmo cards in Japan with my iPhones…

I believe the company I work for has a Hololense based product used in the OR for certain joint replacement surgeries. It’s a different division and I’ve only seen a promo video on it. I’m sure AVP will be developed into specific medical uses and …

designr said: I've never doubted that there could be various vertical industry niches that could use this product. The questions and challenge is: Is this Apple? Apple transformed itself into a consumer electronics company. It's not to say i…

I was a freshman at college in 1984 and my university was one of the Apple Education partners that sold the Mac to students “inexpensively”. But I couldn’t afford one but did use one in our student center and also one owned by a guy in our dorms. …

I wish they’d bring back the fukubukuro (grab bags) at New Years. We’d go to Japan every other Christmas break and be there over the New Year. I wanted to go stand in line and buy one. I was going to one time but my wife talked me out of it. I s…
