The iPad line needs a redesign. They've used the same design language since iPad mini was introduced the year following Steve's death. Only external changes they've made is drill speaker grille holes on top, removed the mute switch, and redesigned t…

Free-form displays are right around the corner, so it's definitely feasible in the near term future. UI-wise, the problems posed by a round display can be easily solved by Apple. They've already solved the different resolution/sizes before with a…

If there's a product whose profile should be slimmed down it's one that users wear throughout the day. The watch needs to get thinner, lighter, and there needs to be an option for a round form factor. The need to recharge nightly can be addressed …

Time for Apple to bribe some Korean officials so they can let them open up Apple Stores in Samsung's home country. Seriously, what's preventing that from happening?

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the top reasons why Apple has to ship an actual television set. Can't see Apple taking a modular approach with the motion sensors necessary to drive the "simplest interface" Jobs and Ive have envisioned fo…

They must've moved to the new triangle-shaped campus in the Cayman Islands.

I'm thinking that an iPod nano-esque Wi-fi only iPhone mini with an embedded OS instead of iOS may not be a terrible idea. It wouldn't cannibalize iPhone sales, and would deal a huge blow to the low-end Android handset market. The whole point of t…
