Frankly, I found the Sony SRSX5 sounded fuller and generally more balanced...and less expensive too.

I wonder if Samsung will now hire someone to steal some Galaxy S5's.

Sure, no reliance on Intel, but the reliance will simply be moved onto Samsung or some other foundry.

Removing ports and adding Retina will greater differentiate the MBA from the MBP line. Probably something Apple wanted to do as the two have almost become indistinguishable. The MBA would again be truly the 'ultra notebook' in the lineup. However,…

"Winter Walk"...must be tough going in SF... it looks downright balmy to me.

Garmins get 6 weeks in watch mode, 10 hrs in GPS training mode. We don't even know what the battery life of the Apple watch yet. Surely they could allow users to turn off GPS in the settings, when not required to preserve battery life.

Garmin with their Forerunner series have had heart rate and GPS in their watches for years. Why the Apple Watch doesn't have GPS built-in probably has more to do with forcing you to buy an accompanying iPhone, than any technological problems.

Don't you find hard edges of an iPhone 5s make it more easier to maintain a grip? The chamfered edges provided that friction. While an iPhone 6 may feel nicer in your hand, the rounded edges and smooth aluminium back simply make it too precarious …

Classic pump and dump. Remember folks, buy low, sell high. In other words, wait till after Sept.9 to buy, when traditionally Apple stock drops significantly.
