Cool! If it works well, I would have zero reason to invest in an iPad Pro. Apple not making Pencil universal across devices was shortsighted, IMHO. Can't wait to try it out.

Why would I want to do this, other than for novelty's sake? Totally pointless. Someday we are going to laugh our asses off at what was considered 'cutting edge' in the early 21st century. It would be great if we could use technology for something ot…

It seems pretty simple to me: most people over the age of 20 don't want to strap gear to their bodies in order to accomplish everyday tasks. Google has already made this clear to everyone, I don't understand why any company thinks augmented reality …

Very much agreed. It's still science fiction, don't look for fully-autonomous cars anytime soon. It really doesn't matter what is happening in California, it's a terrible gauge for the rest of the continental U.S. - where I live, the landscape chang…

It might be worth pointing out to the defenders in this thread that that the technology they are being so cocky about was invented, engineered, and created by people that far exceed the age of 19 - if it weren't for the generation you seem so intent…

I just can't back Cook or Apple on this one, they are in the wrong. Also, if by 'anti-American', Cook means, 'anti-American *corporation*', then I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. We already have enough co-mingling of corporate and politi…

"Do you have an example of something that's not gimmicky?" Exactly. The sheer amount of work that went into Messages, for example, for so little actual useful utility, is staggering. I understand of course that they need to sell phones, and that th…

New poster here, and I promise I'm not a troll. Hello to all. Unfortunately this is all correct, and it has been their modus operandi from day one (which means it actually began under Jobs, though who knows? May have been Forestalls baby). About…
