All of Apple's 2017 iPhones will include fast charging via Lightning port, not USB-C
regurgitatedcoprolite said:The royalties Apple collects through its Made for iPhone program are but a tiny drop in the bucket in comparison to other revenue streams. I don't believe Apple would keep Lightning just because of that. For Apple to move from Lightning to USB-C, there'd have to be major advantages regarding usability, etc. -

Former Apple engineer says company more rigid, less competitive under Tim Cook than Steve ...
It's not. Maybe that's why Steve felt Tim Cook was the right man to take over for him. I find it amusing that the same people who piss all over Tim Cook worship Steve Jobs like a saint. Pretty much the entire executive team at Apple was there during the Steve Jobs era and many of them worked directly for him. If people have an issue with current Apple leadership blame Steve for not doing a better job cultivating the right leadership team for when he was no longer there. -
Mac losing focus of Jony Ive, others in Apple management - report
Certainly appears that the professional Mac is going the way of the dodo at Apple. Which to seems self defeating to me considering the only way to develop iOS apps is to use a Mac. (Yes, I know about PC Hackintosh, but it's not approved). You need a reasonably beefy Mac to do decent development.Isn't neglecting the tools that support your bread and butter platform suicide? I hope we're not going back to the dark days of Metrowerks CodeWarrior!
