  • Apple debuts iPhone 11 Pro from $999 with triple rear camera

    Pretty impressive the presentation with the new cameras. I'm definitely excited to get the new Pro Max. That preorder time for us users on the west coast, yikes! Hopefully I won't sleep through my alarm.

    $5 is tenable. But note the weasel words "starting at." Bet the 4K sub is more. Way more.
    I was listening to Cook when he announced the price and he said nothing of the sort. This article also states that new iPhone or Apple TV purchases get 1 year free but again I was listening to Cook and he included iPads and Macs. MacRumors’ live feed confirms this so I have no idea where AppleInsider is getting its information but it is WRONG.
    The information actually is right. You do get a year free with the purchase of a new iPhone. When Cook announced the one year free, the graphic on the screen showed an iPhone, iPad, and a Mac.

    Holy crap. See looks incredible (and the irony one of the creators is from Peaky Blinders lol). One year free with purchase of anything? Makes sense while the content is still getting started. $5 is nothing. Knocked it out of the park. 
    I must admit, when I read the description of See when it was announced earlier in the year, it sounded kind of lame to me. After watching the trailer, it actually looks pretty good.

    I'm sure it's no big deal...Guam and Puerto Rico haven't even mentioned it.
    Don't forget the Northern Mariana Islands.

  • Apple employee assailed by U.S. Customs, ACLU complaint claims


    CBP does have the right to search someone's property if they are entering the country. They don't need a reason. Fourth Amendment protections don't apply at ports of entry. It's like that with pretty much any border services agency in any country. They have the right to search someone's property when you enter a country. 
    And when it happens to you, you'll be screaming four shades of holy hell. So much for the country of "don't tread on me."

    And sooo many bureaucratic little Eichmanns in the CBP. 
    I've had my stuff searched before returning to the USA and while entering other countries. I'm not taking sides, just stating CBP does have the authority to search anyone for no reason.
