Alright, edited away some speculation, since the FAQ actually answers a lot of questions. The rest remains to be seen.

I'm not sure why Apple is doing this and time will have to tell whether this will be applied to all upcoming beta versions (including minor OS updates) or chosen ones. Either way, I don't think there will actually be much viable feedback you get f…

I'm actually starting to get concerned about the battery life of all those wearables. It is already annoying having to charge the phone and tablet on a daily basis. Last thing I need is having to charge glasses and watches as well. What a mess tha…

This would be the first sane decision to come out of Microsoft since iOS exists. There is no point debating this. iOS is the clear usage (not to say market) leader, leader when it comes to monetisation and especially Enterprise adoption. Microsoft…

Listen, I mean, fair enough, perhaps your claims are true, perhaps there's more to it than meets the eye, I don't really care that much to be honest. However, I believe we've heard your argument multiple times over now and I believe for good order…

In my opinion Microsoft got it all wrong. I mean seriously. Essentially they're trying to sell work devices to consumers, or at least advertise it like that. Obviously no one is taking them seriously and unless they address this issue and actually s…

Personally, I can't share the opinion of touch being essential, let alone useful on a notebook for any reason. In my opinion this becomes even more so true, the heavier work you're doing on your machine, especially type heavy tasks such as developin…

Fantastic article shedding some light on those questionable practices and resulting arbitrary numbers. Thanks!

Oh come on guys, seriously? This behaviour is exactly Apple-like. Any statement containing "expected" is certainly not Apple-like. We all know this from the recent transition to FCP X but also form other transitions in the past, such as the tra…

Regarding an iPad Pro... perhaps... but it won't be anything like we're trying to dream up in this thread. Oh, and don't even continue with a more powerful iOS just for "pro" devices, Apple will never create such a clusterfuck as there is between …

This is the usual and sensational BS to send the stock down a few points and nothing else. In fact, it is hardly worth to debate those numbers in any way, because they're completely out of context. The sensational headline doesn't help credibility…
