There's a good chance they are just filing the trademark, possibly to use in the future but not necessarily this year. Apple really needs to get Apple Intelligence and Siri right before they can tackle home control systems. Let's remember that home…

apple4thewin said: I learned this in the 6th grade. It’s called a “Pocket Veto”. Apple doesn’t do anything about it, so they aren’t agreeing or denying it. So, can Apple really be at fault for it? They could just say they didn’t have the time…

Guys, enough of this robotic assembly stuff. Apple has been making iPhones for 18+ years, if it were easier/cheaper to build/operate a robot than use humans, I'm sure they already would have started deploying them. I'm sure there is increasing autom…

While Apple's Apple Silicon reveal at WWDC 2020 was certainly important, it was really the final piece of the puzzle. They controlled the entire hardware/software stack for the iPhone (by then the dominant revenue source) for years. Some people qui…

Tim & Co. don't want to serve niche markets. As we all know, they pulled the plug on the popular iPhone mini series after just two releases, abandoning a market that is unserved by the competition. Maybe the margins were too low. And I can't ima…

I truly doubt anyone from Apple management reads the forum comments at Apple news sites however hopefully they will understand that they squandered a LOT of customer trust from Batterygate. While they continued to state that they did not intentiona…

Avon is correct. There's nothing inherently wrong with Apple being dominant or the preferred choice. The problem is/was their anti-steering policies which meant an uneven playing field. As noted, this is not just one judge or one government agency t…
