  • iPhone 16e doesn't have MagSafe

    Was planning to purchase this new phone, but having just learned about the absence of MagSafe means it is a pass for me.  Would be nice to learn of Apple’s reasoning behind this omission.  I would pay a few more bucks for MagSafe.  Sad.

  • Sonos CEO leaves company over botched iOS app

    I was really angry with the App fiasco and pledged to dump Sonos.  But after some deep thinking and my ten years love of my 14-set Sonos system, I decided to keep everything.  I have been slowly upgrading all speakers to the latest models by using the Sonos 15% trade-in promotion and some great holiday sale pricing.  I am hoping Apple will buy Sonos: it would be a great fit in to the Apple product line (my Move 2 is so much better than HomePod gen 2).

  • Apple TV+ abandons Clooney and Pitt's 'Wolfs' sequel

    Halfway in to the first episode and I had to turn it off.  The script was terrible as were the two over-rated lead actors.  Apple should stay with series like Pachinko and Teheran -- both well produced and full of drama and cultural appreciation.

    Why don't they just use Starlink?
    I doubt Cook or Apple Board would ever consider any business relationship with Musk given their vast difference in beliefs (political/personal).  I have used Starlink from a remote mountain cabin and in the air (commercial airline) and it is very stable and fast. That said, Starlink would be a great company for Apple to invest in, as well as Sonos.
