    Dear Google,

    Nothing breeds lawsuits like someone stealing intellectual property and making a crapload of money with it!

    “You must love Big Brother. It is not enough to obey him: you must love him.”
    And we do. Our love for Big Brother has made billionaires of Bill Gates, Steve Case, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. They drill into our brains by granting us "anonymity" to indulge in our worst instincts, which would get us punched out in a "face to face" interaction. And we pay them for the privilege.

    If that ain't love, what is?

    My feeling aside or how I might approach this problem with my limited knowledge, at the very least I have to acknowledge that countless Apple engineers have been spent many years perfecting this device so crying foul on a product when all the evidence isn't in seems a tad foolish. I'll wait for the developers who get the first run of the device before I move the needle on how I feel about the upcoming product.


    So leave it to the pros? Let's not get crazy!

  • Apple is asking iPhone suppliers for screens without any bezel

    mayflymayfly
    There is a phrase in this article that understates what I'd think is a much bigger issue:
    "increased vulnerability to external shocks"

    With no metal bezel surrounding a glass lens, seems like it would be way more likely to break due to accidents that current phones survive intact. They're going to have to explore a radically different glass technology to prevent that. Or they could just use current glass tech, and make more money on repairs, I suppose.
