Having more pixels does not make it a better camera. The essense of better camera is larger sensor area (for both traditional camera and digital) and better lens. Given the depth of iPhone, there is no way to increase the sensor area, and cert…

People are missing an extremely important element from AT&T (it seems to be in a seperate press release) I am sure AI will make it a seperate article. AT&T Global Business Servics... "Following the close of the quarter, Oracle was a…

What do we know? 1. It has significant impact on earning, but not immediate revenue driver. That means the revenues are likely deferred. 2. It will shut off competitors, so it is not a Mac. Even if Apple lower the Mac price by half, it won't shu…

One thing for sure, this product transition is NOT a computer. Apple can grow Mac share, but no matter what it does, it cannot shut off rivals because 95% of the market is still Windows PC. I already said in the other thread - it can be an iPh…

"Regarding the mystery transition, Apple doesn't want to leave a margin so high that it creates an "umbrella" for competitors to rest under; it often releases products at a high price but lowers their prices later." It is not a mid-range Mac. It …

The sales number is supply constrained. With Apple's inventory checking page, it seems most Apple stores were sold out, and probably all AT&T stores were sold out too. It is sold out in some foreign countries too. Supposely, Apple ordered at …
