  • Spotify expects Apple to 'open up' its platforms after EU complaint

    Fanboyism has such entertainment value, that’s why I read the comments to pieces like these. It’s as if this were a 2003 record industry article about iTunes.

    The iPhone XR is significantly more durable than previous iPhone generations.  iPads are to bulky for their intended use on a plane.
    I think that the iPad mini with cellular is perfectly sized as a hand-portable / jacket-pocketable customer service device that can be carried by cabin crew.

    The screen size provides more practical real-estate for apps used to check off the passenger manifest as they board, update the cabin maintenance log on the go, capture reportable incidents using the rear camera, do all their on the pre-flight and in-flight admin, check passengers into connecting flights, use multiple apps side by side, and a whole lot more on a hand-portable device that has the same processor internals as the XR but has a more usable 7.9" screen.
    No, please let it be the iPad Air.

    Part of these efforts included hiring luminaries in the modem world, including former Intel executive Umashankar Thyagarajan, an engineer thought to have played a key role in the development of Intel's XMM 8160 5G modem.
    Love that name. It’s like he’s the king of Dragons.
