  • iTunes' share of video sales and rentals market reportedly in free fall amidst competition...

    Well, the fact that Apple's rentals are still 24 hours while Amazon's are 48 hours for the same price might have something to do with it. 
    I guess it may vary depending on the country, but it was 48 hours rental time in the UK when I looked yesterday.

  • Growth of Apple's Siri hampered by privacy & departure of key staff - report

    "People at Apple's anxiety level went up a notch," one ex-Siri team member said.
    No wonder Siri is failing; the Siri team can't even make grammatical sense themselves!

  • Presentation slide again suggests 'iPhone 8' Touch ID sensor on rear of device

    Real or fake, I'm wondering why the article doesn't speculate on that rear circular cutout being for wireless charging rather than Touch ID. Perhaps I'm missing something.

  • Bragi unveils Dash Pro with realtime translation, enhanced noise cancellation, more

    Do.not.buy

    I bought the current version of The Dash and it's pretty and even looks like an Apple product. BUT, it doesn't do anything that they say in the website that it's supposed to do. Terrible experience, low/poor volume, non-responsive controls, etc.

    They say battery lasts 3 hours. Nope, it barely lasts 1 hour. I spend 2-3 hours at the gym. It was frustrating.

    They have the worst customer service or no customer service at all.

    Bragi is a misleading company.

    I stick to Jaybird X3, which doesn't offer all the fancy and sophisticated health features, but the audio quality is GREAT. It's sweat and water resistant, not waterproof though. Battery lasts like 5-6 hours before having to charge again. 

    I think the Apple EarPods are good too based on reviews but I haven't tried them on myself.

    Hey William how much did you pay for the current version the dash? I will be on the look out for reviews for this newer version. I will also see how bad or good their current version is. 
    I paid almost $270 with taxes.
    Oh, and the worst of all things is that Bluetooth doesn't work if the iPhone is not in a straight visible line with the earbuds. Can you believe that? It's more like an infrared connection rather than Bluetooth. Read the reviews on Amazon.
    To be fair, that's my experience with all Bluetooth devices (YMMV). The Airpods are the first device in that class that allow me to, not just be out of line of sight, but actually walk around the house, down the stairs into other rooms and the connection stays rock solid. Remarkable really. The Airpods are the most impressive device I've ever bought.
