Quote: Bottom line: The deal is done. This is no longer a rumour that we can speculate if Apple is truly interested in Beats or if they would ever consider offering a way for headphones to work Lightning. So what the objective and rational person …

1) It was $3 billion. Gosh, I got .2 wrong because I read a different article...end of the world is near! 2) What headphone company makes more revenue and profit than Beats? This is not the point, Apple has always purchase companies based on tech a…

Another dumb rumor and could be one of the dumbest thing Apple can do, on top of buying Beats. A thinner smartphone is no longer a big deal. Apple have beaten this horse dead. Turning some/all Beats headphones with lightning connector simply isolate…

Icahn is a tool and has been for a long time. This is the same idiot that thought selling Yahoo! to Microsoft was a great idea! Stay out of tech Icahn! His interests in companies is not how to push them to be great but to cash them out. I wonder wha…

I think it's time for Mr. Dell to go dig a hole and stuck his head in it.

Celebrities never saved any brand that puts out dated and subpar products. If you are not on top of the pack in tech and innovate, you won't last long. Smartphone segment is more about function and lifestyles now and Blackberry is way behind.

Just another scumbag lawyer... "$138,432 over the past two weeks... the submission of a budget is not required." Yup, this guys is just making shit up as he goes. I would not be surprised he has ties to the judge.

It appears we will always remain divided, Apple vs MS and everything PC. I live and breath in Apple work environment, iPhone, iMac, Mac Pro, iPad...I enjoy using every piece. What MS geeks or Apple-haters don't get is we "enjoy" using our devices. I…

It just proved the point Apple's "regulars" don't want a cheap product. As soon as you tell people the low-end model is plastic...they would rather spend the extra $100 for 5S. I doubt Apple is complaining, especially is 5S is doing well. Innovate a…

Fox News spreads nothing but misinformation and judging by their choice on big touch screen just to show off. You don't need big touch screen to report truth and since that isn't what they do anyway... There were a few studies a couple years ago th…

Mac desktop are doing just fine. Is this site running out of stories to write? First is Android taking over iOS and tablets...now this? Really? Tablets can not replace desktops in serious work tasks, at least not yet. The decline in desktop number…

These analysts are not in it for the long-term. They want great numbers one quarter at a time. Cheaper android phones are just that, cheaper! You get what you pay for. Selling the phone is just a starting point, Apple want their users to buy digital…

It is not absurd for Apple to get out of consumer ebooks. Statistically, iPad is being used more in other forms of entertainment, reading is just small part of its capability that won't need to go away. If anything reading on iPad and mini can only …

The judge is the problem. How she interpreted Apple was at fault for providing a platform for publishers to collude still makes my head spin. Judge that do not understand tech and business has no place being there in the first place. This is only …

I like how everyone argues without including publisher and authors...publishing like every complex business, where everyone in the process gets a small cut of profit. Cheaper ebooks will only drive the current publishers into an eventual meltdown, l…

I said this before, Apple should just get out of consumer ebooks. IF they really want to prove their point, I see no better way than to leave publishers, B&N and Amazon to their own cesspool. DOJ want to see how fast Amazon will kill publishin…

The only people thinks this is a good idea are DOJ and Android/Amazon fanbois. DOJ is overreaching into Apple's business models. What then after 2-yrs? Are they studying the effects and then go after Amazon? This is one of the silliest lawsuit in te…

"Wholesale business model works fine. It's the publishing industry's fault for not adapting to, or embracing this new disruptive technology. But good for consumers which is what the lawsuit was about. It is NOT illegal to set prices be…
