More customization, please. More menu items. Single- and triple-taps. Replace taps with a touch (while AirPods are inserted in the ears); taps are loud, inexact, inconvenient. Enable Apple Watch taps on an AirPod complication.

iPhone Pro could also PROVIDE notifications when the user is paying attention. Siri could say "You're looking good today, Dave." Or "Dave, it might be a good idea to run a comb through your hair. And this is the third day in a week you've worn that T-shirt."

That Eastern Texas court has enabled fraudulent patent suits for years. I blame that court and its judges more than those companies who take advantage of it.

Both the WinTel experience and Android-Samsung demonstrate that open standards lower production costs and therefore device prices, while Apple's closed system promotes more rapid innovation. It does not appear that mobile computer technology has matured to the point yet where Apple's future is imperiled. By pushing innovation forward every year, Apple is making it impossible for Android phone makers to standardize (commoditize) costly components, or share new application features. Its R&D activities will both preserve Apple profitability going forward and generate some amazing new products.
