Apple is 100% responsible for the wretched state of BT on its devices. My Alpine head unit kicked ass back in iOS7—I would get in my car, turn on my ignition, and BAM! instantly connected. Since iOS 8 and to today it has gotten progressively worse, even though my head unit's firmware has remained the same.

Now, I'm about 1 out of 5 in connection success when I get in my car. Sometimes I have to reboot the phone to get it working again. But this is progress, right? Must be Alpine's fault, not Apple's. 

To paraphrase Eddy Cue, "We're Apple, we do what we want with Bluetooth, and we don't wear suits."

Caltech endowments running dry?

Samsung is already salivating. 

I'm stuck because the new Suunto OLED touchscreen watches come out next month. As a cyclist, this watch really appeals to me, and the battery life on the Apple Watch sucks ass big time (and if I start Strava from the Watch, which launches heart rate measurement during the ride, then I get about eight turns of the cranks before the Watch dies).

I like Tim, but can he stop using the word "thrilled" in virtually every call or presentation? Get a thesaurus...
