Thanks, useful info!

On another Camera Control note...

I have an Apple branded iPhone 16 Pro Max case that has a Camera Control flush with the side of the case. I like to use Camera Control to launch the camera and I like that particular Apple case a lot, but I was sometimes inadvertently pressing that area of the case and would then be thrust into the camera app when I had been in the middle of doing something else. Very annoying! A simple solution is shown in the screenshot of the three iPhones in the article, in the section just above where the author is highlighting. In Settings->Camera->Camera Control, there is a section labeled Launch Camera. I just changed the default setting from Single Click to Double Click and problem solved! (YMMV). 

I'm glad to hear that! I just happen to be going to NYC soon.

So, all one needs to do to use the NYC Metro with Express Transit is to go into Apple Wallet, turn on Express Transit, pick which credit/debit card the funds should come from, and you're done?

This may b e a dumb question (I haven't ridden the NYC Metro in years and I can't remember exactly how the inside of the stations work)...

Suppose I use Express Transit (tap iPhone) at Penn Station and get on the 1 train (which can use Express Transit) and I get off the 1 train at Times Square and get on, say, the M train to Union Square (which doesn't currently have Express Transit enabled). How does that work? Do I have to use Express Transit (tap iPhone) at TS when I get off of the 1 train and then buy/use a Metro card at TS to get on the M toward Union Square?

If you wonder why the Eastern District of Texas is so popular for patent trolls, this is well worth viewing. Incredible!

Not surprisingly, Apple will  be closing its two retail stores that reside in the Eastern District of Texas (Willow Bend in Plano, TX and Stonebriar in Frisco, TX) and opening one in Dallas (just outside of the E.D.T.).

iPhone sales were down about 1% y/y, but 1Q2018 was also a week shorter than 1Q2017. 13 weeks this year vice 14 last year. So, they sold 1% less phones in about 7% less time. If 1Q this year had the same number of weeks as last year, iPhone sales would have been up 5-6%.
