Just more hand wringing yap, yap, yap all around.

Apple will release its new machines when it's ready and not a moment sooner. It's always been this way, always will be—to their credit!

Even though you've changed your profile pic, I still can't help but read all your posts in Trump's voice. 

I think that I'll probably be changing it back again soon! We're all going to be hearing a lot more of his voice soon, perhaps for 8 more years!

I agree! Hmmm, lots of "dislikes" from the bozos, hehe! ;-)

Sadly I suspect there is a lot of truth in this.  I do hope that Apple hasn't fallen victim to the Wall Street disease.  

When SJ ran things, pleasing the customer was the focus. Now that TC runs things, pleasing the shareholder is the focus.

Horse pucky!

How dare a business run itself like a business, and try to optimize it's expenditures... (only if it is Apple

I don't mind that Apple tries to reduce the cost of the components it needs to build an iPhone.  But I would appreciate that these reduced costs are reflected in the selling price

Enough price whining! Apple's pricing is fair as long as the company uses part of its profits to fund continuing R&D and expansion.

And everyone else does the same. At some point cost cutting has to impact quality no?

No. Apple will continue to hold the line on quality.
