  • iPhone 15 Ultra: What it may look like, and what to expect in 2023

    The longer zooms might save a bunch of Yellowstone NP visitors from themselves (and the bison).

    I'm with you. And I wouldn't mind not having to pay extra for a soft grip case so it doesn't fall out my pocket or hand at the worst possible time!
    Plus I’ve suspected that the cases insulate the phone: increasing the risk of overheating when the faster chargers that are now pretty much standard are used. Yes, there’s a monitoring system but isn’t it a bit like the overheat light on your car? When it’s triggered you’ve already had some amount of damage…

    The easier to drop part is where I put most emphasis. In my hand it’s how usable the device is that counts for me and that very much includes not having to constantly fight having the thing slip from my grasp. As I’m not a huge fan of cases outside of traveling how the actual device works in my hand is important to me. 

    So yes, I had a big welcome to the flat sides.

  • AppleTogether asks about Apple's union busting for possible class action suit

    My favorite union organization action to date is a demonstration outside a NYC Starbucks Roastery in Chelsea where the display tables were cheekily filled with prominent displays of competitors products, namely Dunkin coffee and baked goods. The precious element? Dunkin is NOT unionized. 

    homework people, do your homework.

  • Apple to open new store at American Dream Mall in New Jersey

    I like the concentration of shopping opportunities these places, malls, provide (and I’ve never been a fan of all the inconvenience of deliveries), and in winter in the NE the weather protection is a plus. 

    There’s no need for Apple to match the number of Starbucks out there, but so far their locations are convenient enough without the risk of over saturation.
