  • Delta allegedly switching flight crew hardware from Surface to iPad in early 2018

    In other news Delta employees were spotted dancing but no one knows why. 

    The tides are turning in enterprise....

  • Apple sued over 'Animoji' trademark, allegedly tried to buy IP rights prior to iPhone X de...

    Damages are going to be a bit tricky since he'll likely sell more of the app, and make a profit. How would he make a valid claim for damages, it doesn't matter what Apple call it, no one is going to choose his shitty app on the iPhone X. Having said that, Apple seem to have done the wrong thing here.

    Is there proof Apple scrolled through the App Store looking for a name to copy?
    You really think Apple typed in “Animoji” into their App Store and thought “Aha! That’s the name we’ll copy!!”

    I highly doubt that and the article seems to suggest the company has went out of business.

    It’s crazy to see things go full circle.
    Apple creates a new craze called the App Store, allows 3rd Parties to monetize their iPhone creations, Apple creates new feature, an App developer wants to sue Apple, a developer who wouldn’t exist without Apple’s creation.

    Didn’t a small app developer wanna sue Apple for using “Lion” in OS X?

  • Rumor: Apple supply chain looking to cut iPhone X costs in 2018, reducing consumer prices

    So 2017’s iPhone X will be cheaper next year?
    Apple does this every year...
    Am I reading this wrong?

    When the devices get cheaper the price goes down and Apple adds features to it for
    the next model to sell at a higher again.

    This decision can’t last forever. Just wait.

    I’m not sure why certain companies demand special privileges. Even if Apple were to give their whiny ass a privilege then that opens the floodgates for everyone else to demand lower fees and then lower fees....

  • Echoing Apple's $1B investment in Didi Chuxing, Alphabet sinks $1B into Lyft

    except Apple did it a while back, so not sure how this is an echo, maybe a remote echo... A cavern.

    It is probable that Apple has some product in the pipeline to test in the Chinese market, and I'd expect that to be pretty soon.

    Apple's option would be to slap that on the roof of just normal cars with a minimal conversion inside. A kind of kit for the very large Chinese market.
    Initially, it would mainly be for testing in very hard urban situations.

    Labor costs in China for this conversion are so low that there could be very fast a large test fleet.
    Because deals don’t happen in a day.

    And yes I’ve been saying it since Apple invested in Didi, don’t be surprised if they use Didi as a personal testing incubator. China is one of the best markets to gather driving data since it has terrible driving conditions(and drivers apparently).
