Not talking about the keynote content, so not "lying"... Talking about the stupid event webpage they set up, which is trying to load snapshots / video stills to the page below the streaming content, at the same time as trying to play the video fee…

All those billions, and unable to get a f***in' clue!

Worst Apple launch ever! Talk about trying to be too clever. IT morons have taken over the asylum now Steve has gone. User value is replaced by bells / whistles and associated non-functional gimmicks. The event website is trying to stream still im…

This will be the first Apple launch I miss, as streaming is complete bollox online. Constant Chinese translation provided, with no ability to turn off! Apple have fucked up this launch.

Apple is doo – Oh, wait a minute...

That back with the plasticky bands is pretty ugly. Reminds me of the plastic edges on the mid- and late-2007 Mac Book Pros. Not a fan… But on the basis that this leak may well be (hopefully is) complete BS, I'm happy to wait for the official launc…

Apple said to be set to delay launch of purported Anti-Gravity Boots due to rumoured "serious production issues", which insiders apparently attribute to "huge flaws in Tim Cook's vision and management skills". Anonymous sources claim "massive devel…

In a market worth hundreds of billions, what does a hundred million fine matter? Could this realistically be termed a 'deterrent against infringement'? I can't see how Samsung's "wilful" copying doesn't make financial sense. And the negative publi…

Actually, I think this is quite a nice ad... I wouldn't buy the product, but the ad made me smile. Has the same 'tone' of some of those Mac vs PC ads... Maybe Apple should revive the format they perfected...? "Hi! I'm iPad. And this is Galaxy.…

Yes. Nice ad. But I can't help thinking that the marketing suits producing these technology ads (and not just Apple's) are getting more and more overblown in their pretentious claims... They're becoming almost as satire-friendly as perfume ads!
