A friend got a multi-pack of the woven bands in the picture a few years ago and gave me a few. The bands were probably $1-$2 each. I like them a lot and they're still like new. If I get one dirty, it goes in the wash and I install the other. …

Tehran showed that the Israeli shows could be a lot of fun. Instead of adapting False Flag, perhaps Apple should have instead bought rights to add that to their library.

People tend to underestimate the significant technical challenges involved in creating deep red for the iPhone.

Firstly Xed made a great point about the numbers. Secondly, the article is about a supply problem, not a demand problem. Why would Apple cut orders?

This a minor point about this clearly stupid modification, but it clearly does not have 1.5kg of gold as that amount of gold would be worth about $100,000. Perhaps it has 1.5 GRAMS of gold. Correction: 18k gold would be worth less, maybe $70,000.

Skeptical said: All vapor ware until it’s on a phone. Why announce something then say it won’t be released FFS? So you are saying that Apple should not share what it's working on with developers at a developers conference?

Unless the investment fund was trading really short term options, they could only have lost money if they sold stock. Why would an investment fund sell based on that information?

Apple's marketing and engineering teams will want you to know that most people underestimate the incredible technical challenges involved in making a digital watch face. There was a multi-year and multi-department team of people from various tech…

Relatively few internal differences between the 13" and 15" models? We were told that developing the 15" model involved all sorts of major engineering challenges.

I am surprised that availability is already considered a problem for a $3,500 device that won't be available for many months and is widely considered too expensive for mass adoption. My own assumptions: It's awesome and too expensive for me. Just…

I'm not sure about the value proposition on this in 2023. I used Ironkey enterprise thumb drives for years because they were indestructible and I could centrally manage them. Now with lots of ways to move data and lots of ways to secure it, I am n…

I don't think the problem with at least some of the older groups is lack of familiarity with technology. It's just that older folks are less enamored with shiny objects, less likely to buy things they can't afford. I'm not in line to buy. I'm in o…
