Why not see Apple release iMessage as an Android app? It would leave SMS/MMS to Android users, bring blue-bubble to both sides of the user views and give true E2EE for all users. Secure and assured delivery. The answer to me is that iMessage is a…

dewme said: Hmm, if you’re a developer paying more than $1000 a year for a MSDN subscription versus Apple’s $99 per year, exactly how is Microsoft’s “guiding principles” making your life better? In case you haven’t noticed it yet, there is …

So, let me understand this, APPL didn't choose HSBC to back their Apple Card. HSBC is underwhelmed by the prospect of high profit customers getting the non-HSBC card? Nothing here folks, move along. . . . -RJ

Nice article. I like what Tesla has done on their car batteries. The put extra battery capacity into the cars which allow them to offer extra drive range to consumers if they option up. Software opens the battery capacity via an update OTA. Why …

At Apple's 200M iPhones per year run-rate and $21 per phone to Qualcomm, that is a $4.2Bn per year flow out of Cupertino and into San Diego. Regardless of the public animosity between these two companies, nearly 20% of Qualcomm's revenue is derived…

I really liked TT. But agree that it is puzzling to see it when inadvertently triggered. No biggie though. It also helps with looking forward in the day to different calendar cards to see what meetings are still in front of my day. -RJ

As a 3x repetitive BMW owner, this is a bad move. If we pay for the iPhone connectivity hardware ($300 extra today) for the dongle, then unless there is something to justify the subscription, then this is unjustified? Today, the car is carrying ha…

Okay, YouTube as a marketing vector, got it. But wouldn't it make sense to not publicly fire employees whose daughter does the same thing. I get that she (and he) were not part of the marketing community, but insn't that just what AAPL wanted …

The device was already shown by AAPL over a month ago. The actual product is shipping in 10 days. It has been seen in the wild several times with video clips. The video was fun to watch and had just enough blogger feel. It could, with little eff…

Did anyone gleen off if this is an iPhone 7-only accessory? I assume as much given the W1 nature of the device and suspected new frequency needed (not bluetooth, not WIFI, not cellular). -RJ

slprescott said: How many hours of Netflix = 100 GB ? https://help.netflix.com/en/node/87 3Gb per hour at HD, 7Gb per hour at Ultra HD. So either 1.5 seasons of binge watching NCIS at HD or 1.5 seasons of GOT. -RJ

Hey, did anyone look at that still picture. That's not an iPhone 4 he's holding. That 30-pin is way too long. Those speaker ports look a lot like mini-USB ports. It's a grey market copy of an iPhone. -RJ

This appears to be a good move for MS. If they integrate other properties like Skype, OneDrive, and MS Mail the value proposition for using LinkedIn would increase to users interested in those properties today. -RJ

What is amazing to me is the FBI needs APPL to open up their secure iOS hardware, however the FBI is unwilling to open up their findings on target iPhones once unsecured. How will our FBI/DOJ behave when after breaking down iOS, the public jailbrea…

And the question we all have is: 'what was on the phone?' -RJ

Rangela66 said: Personally I think this move may hurt them a little bit. When the new phones like Samsung comes out, Samsung usually gives you a $200 insentive off the price that will be honored at Best Buy and then Best Buy offers a $200-$2…

Powered skateboards are here already today. This design has a hand controller for acceleration and breaking bits but steering is the driver's leaning just as any other skateboard would be. Having a light and normal-looking skateboard is both advan…

It has a hand remote controller. The iOS app is to customize the acceleration and regenerative braking, see distance/range and to use in the off-chance the hand remote's battery died. It also locks and un-locks the board's circuitry. -RJ

If you can't buy them, join them, I guess.
