Yet another analysis based on the faulty idea that Apple is a cyclical company that needs hit after hit to generate growth. No recognition of subscription revenue or the trend of recurring sales that grow the ecosystem or the room for growth in coun…

Also big potential for the devices to get "lost" or damaged or stolen. But the data is important, so I'm glad someone's taking the risk. We're looking at potentially tracking heart rate for mental health patients, but there's no way our publicly-fu…

I can't be the only one who read the first sentence and thought "Apple acquired BBedit???" - thankfully, re-reading aided correct comprehension.

@Dewme: exceptionally well said. It's worth remembering that Australia (like most Commonwealth countries) inherited its legal system from the UK, and thus citizens have fundamentally different rights compared to the US. The basic philosophy is that…

Apple has to be diligent about checking reports of scam apps in case they remove a legitimate app and get sued. I'm not surprised that they don't keep the reporter in the loop on this process, but it has to be a nightmare to verify identity properly…
