At least nine Macs with M2 Apple Silicon chips are reportedly in development
Tested 14" MBP in store and find it too thick at the front, as I've used MBA since 2012. Currently have MBA 2015 with SD Card slot. Want a thin and light, but want built-in SD Card port (important: built-in). FWP, but it's a pain in the ass Apple won't bring SD Card back to MBA like they are with MBP. They are bringing back MagSafe, but they should bring back SD Card and stop gimping their machines. MPB should be 2X everything MBA, but both machines should have same port variety for those users who love the thinner form factor and don't need 3X USB-4 ports and the additional power, fans and cooling a 1.5-2X speed machine would require. -
Leaked images show Apple's dual USB-C charger

It's too bad they couldn't have designed it so that it won't do that. Especially for the price they're going to charge.I hope the pics are wrong. -

Compared: iPad mini vs Kindle Paperwhite

I honestly would like if Apple made an e-ink reader because Amazon isn't great at hardware or software, at least when it comes to Kindle. If Apple made a 9" e-ink reader (kindles are too small) that looked like the page of a book "Apple Page" or "Apple Book" and had some innovative features such as page numbers (ffs) and the ability to squeeze either side of the page to turn the page I'd honestly buy one. -

I wish you had compared which device had the darker black, and the better contrast at different light levels. I've always been dissatisfied with the Kindle's grey-on-grey appearance, though it has improved with each iteration. I also need it for reading in the dark, next to a light-sensitive bedmate.
