Same Tim, same. I wish we could get to a point where the phones were on display at an Apple Store after the announcement, but before the pre-order.  Even if they were in glass and you couldn’t touch them, or they were just dummy units that wouldn’t turn on. High res images just don’t cut it sometimes. Last year I went with the 14 pro in white/silver because I thought the purple was hideous in images. The moment I saw purple in real life I loved it and wished I had gotten that color. So for me, the natural titanium or the blue were the two finalists and I went with blue out of fear the natural titanium wouldn’t look as good as the blue in real life. 1st world problems I suppose. 

I caught all of them except the Mac SE, and wondered if Apple was going to do some sort of contest or prize for the first person to name all the old products. Very fun Easter eggs for sure. 

Very excited for this to finally return. This has been my favorite Apple TV+ show, with Ted Lasso being a close 2nd.
So let’s start a friendly discussion in the comments - rank your top 5 Apple TV+ shows in order. I’ll go first.

1. For All Mankind
2. Ted Lasso
3. Hijack
4. Severance
5. The Morning Show

IMO the ads are clever and fresh. Doesn’t make me want to switch, but I suspect it will help push those on the fence over to a Pixel.

Having to disassemble the lock to replace the AA battery is a non-starter for me. So is having to remember to carry an extra physical key for the inevitable, a dead battery.

Really getting sick of all the assorted batteries in my life that need constant replacing or recharging. I have to have a box full of AAA, AA, C, D, 2032, 2430. 2025, 312, and spare power tool batteries, to avoid having to go to the store in the middle of some activity. And then there's the rat's nest of adapters, chargers and cables.

This is a ridiculous comment. Do you still have a wired TV remote because changing the batteries once every 2 years is too cumbersome? How would you expect to power the lock without a battery? Constant AC running through your front door?

Changing the battery is a 30 second exercise. Your phone will notify you when the battery gets low, I have the old version and with normal usage batteries last around 120 days. You’ll get notified in PLENTY of time to change the battery before it dies. Notifications that the battery is low, and then critically low come about 2 weeks later. Sure, the battery is a CR2 - which isnt common to most devices, but theyre readily available wherever you get batteries from.
