Supply chain needlessly predicting doom and gloom for 2018 iPhone early
asdasd said:This report is clearly showing that Apple over estimated last year, and is setting expectations this year. Which is what you would expect.
In short nothing to see here regarding a fall in demand this year.
We don't know if they will keep the old X around, if they do I expect it to be a big seller.
Apple set their expectations for the fall and winter quarters and just barely beat both expectations. Sounds to me like they absolutely nailed their expectations last year. This source predicted winter sales would fall dramatically short, they were extremely wrong.
Apple will set its guidance for this years iPhone at the end of the summer quarter. Until then, who knows what to expect. Certainly not these guys, since they have been very wrong already this year with this same data point.

Apple and Samsung rest cases patent damages trial, jury to decide on Monday
The logistics of what Samsung is arguing, if applied to society at large, would just obliterate a functional society.
Basically, Samsung is saying that if you steal something, and use the stolen good to make billions of dollars, the most you can get in trouble for is the amount you should’ve paid to begin with.
So, in this system, there would be no incentive to pay for anything, ever. Basically, every single sale would have to go through courts and juries would decide fair value. Until then, everything is free. There’s no reason to worry about stealing, the worst that can happen to you is you pay what the company was legally determined was a far asking price back when you stole it. -
Apple picks up TV adaptation of Isaac Asimov's 'Foundation' sci-fi novels

What world are you living in where technology has gone the opposite direction of that? -
A deep dive into HomePod's adaptive audio, beamforming and why it needs an A8 processor
I am extremely curious how the HomePod will respond to other speakers playing music. I’m planning on using an airplay receiver to pair (eventually) a couple HomePods to a top tier subwoofer and other high end speakers. My guess is that the audio analysis and beam forming capabilities of the HomePod will pair up perfectly to meet offer some truly astounding audio quality and sound stages. -
Apple chip supplier TSMC preps first-ever 3-nanometer factory as founder announces retirem...

Really dont understand how this would be practical pr cost effective. Really expected to change from silicon to graphene for so many reasons, none the least of which is how much easier it is to make single atom chains of graphene. Maybe that’s part of the plan and just wasn’t described today.
