Spatial audio for classical depends just like in other genres on whether the original recording was done w Dolby Atmos and or who the engineers were and what you are using to listen to the music. On original HomePods and the AirPod Max’s I use, clas…

China officially changed it's Covid policy last week at sessions held in Beijing with Xi Jinping. It is now CCP policy to get countrywide herd immunity ASAP. So it is now the law that all citizens, even if they test positive for Covid MUST report …

Yes I noticed my HomeKit which is largely a Phillips Hue system of lighting in a 1000sf loft and an AppleTV 4K associated with a flat panel Samsung TV and 2 original HomePods, was not fully functional and dis-coordinated in the ways discussed in com…

So about 4 months ago, I asked an acquaintance of mine who has been intimately involved with the apple wireless group for a while, if they had been disbanded. He said no, simply renamed and still hard at work.

The subway bar was completed almost 6 months ago and lies about 100 feet below ground. It was done w the street open. What is going on now is the construction of the underground subway station itself connecting from Market Street BART/Union up to Un…

Tried to do this via my Mac, iPad and iPhone, the later through the Apple Store App. After 45 minutes (PST) the Mac safari page has still not opened up to preorders. The iPad same. But after 30 minutes, the iPhone apple store app opened up, but t…

I live in San Francisco and five years ago I ran into Jony Ive and he was driving a Bentley. I wondered why he would have such a large car given that he designs very svelte objects. I know nothing about cars. A year ago I saw a long documentary from…

A way to deal with owing China money is to sell them stuff they buy, Apple is starting to do this, GM is doing it, Mary Kay cosmetics etc. Manufacturing and buying works both ways....

Brian Lam posted a rather remarkable account of what impact these events had on him, and on his ongoing relationship with Steve Jobs. He sent Jobs a major apology just before Jobs died. This is one of the best personal tributes to Jobs that I hav…

I would think they'll do something like they did with the iPod. Come out with lower price points but have a very interesting interface of them. So I can see and "iPhone" that is essentially an iPod nano which already has a touch screen, so this wo…

Seems to me that SJ, Zuckerberg and Schmidt all have, among other things, cogent analyses about the issues for some American companies trying to do business in China, both to manufacture devices as well as to try to sell into the Chinese market. Th…

I have always sold my old iPhone after getting the new on. And in general, from Craigslist, I got more for the old one than I pay subsidized to ATT for the new one. Last one was sold to a taxi driver who said he would jailbreak it but needed to run …

Remember that Murdock also owns the Wall Street Journal. And who rights for the WSJ? Walt Mosberg. At this years Mossberg fest - D8, in which Jobs spoke and was interviewed, you could see Murdock conspicuously in attendance. I believe he even in…

I have a friend in Shanghai who works in tech. He went to Hong Kong to purchase his iPhone 3GS last year as he wanted WIFI and the only official chinese mainland version did not have it. Also the official Chinese version is outragiously expensive …

In this article, Kaifu discusses leaving Google China by citing Steve Jobs: http://cnreviews.com/business/compan..._20090906.html

It is interesting that Kaifu should talk about the tablet at this time. He is a very important person in the history of Google, Microsoft and in the Steve Jobs world. Both Jobs and Gates directly sought to hire him in the 90's Whereas Avie …
