Cool!  Now I can not watch the Oscar’s on Apple TV and Netflix too!

When I rent cars (at least 8 times a year), it’s nice to put my phone in and not have to figure out Honda’s stereo system, VW’s, Ford’s, Toyota.  I just plug my phone in and there it is.  A standard way to get maps, make phone calls, use Audible… hey, that’s all the stuff GM will do.

will they have a GM phone too , so I can bring it to other cars I drive?

have only owned one GM car, and that’s enough for a lifetime.

I like that Apple is looking outside China for sourcing their wares.  Having all of your eggs in one basket is not so good for eggs or metaphorically for your supply chain.

Doing so is not a good business strategy.  Sooner or later, things fall apart.

Whether you like or dislike Intel processors, without Moore, the world would be a different place without him.  He definitely made a dent in the universe, as Steve Jobs did.

Rest in Peace, Gordon

Well done.

My Beats ‘AirPods’ had USB charging 2 years ago. It’s not rocket science - or that interesting. 

You’re right; it’s Socket Science!

Seriously, though, it’s time to ditch Lightning.  It’s had a good run, but it’s time to move on, until the next great idea.

The duplicate charging cables alone is worth the switch.  My iPad has had USB-C since 2021, and unless it’s $50 for the connector, and will add significantly to the price, I’m good with carrying around one cable for the iPad, AirPods, iPhone, and my work phone (iPhone, Android, whatever they give me next year).
