Apple may be working on two new Studio Display models
There’s a zillion different display options from other brands. I’m not sure why anyone would pay premium for Apple display. I mean how long until they release an AirPort Extreme update? Should they? I wish they’d cut down on how many products they offer and make the core products better, like Steve did when he returned. The bloat is getting out of controlwozwoz said:Seriously, how long can it take to release a monitor update? The existing model sits too high ... and I have been waiting a long time for one that is not ergonomically compromised. The current height variable Studio Display only goes UP: hopefully, Apple will figure out how to make it go down in height as well.

iPhone Air was almost portless, but concerns about EU regulations prevented it
I’m glad the EU forced a standard charging port. I think the only reason Apple didn’t move from Lightning to USB C sooner is so customers wouldn’t get angry like they did with the switch from the original 30 Pin to Lightning. Had they done so after just 5 years of Lightning every would say it was planned obsolescence. I’ll go one step further and say they would have embraced USB-C instead of Lightning had it existed at the time. The reversible connector was brilliant compared to micro USB. I recently stayed at a place that had an old JBL speaker with 30 pin connector and no Bluetooth!darbus69 said:
hmmmm, strange thought…
The EU needs to back off. I am all for regulation, especially when it comes to consumer protection, but what the truck do they believe is the end game for all their frivolous actions ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Apple's lowest-selling iPhones still crush rival premium flagships
Comparing sales of Apple phones to all other brands running Android doesn’t seem like a meaningful comparison. Obviously the android market is diluted with countless devices vs a single company selling iOS devices.

Apple's rumored Home Hub said to be under employee testing
I’m thinking we’re past peak Apple. Sold 30% of my AAPL holdings the day after the 16 e-waste was announced and rumors like this give me confidence it was the right decision at the right time. If these things are announced as products, I’ll probably sell off the rest.

There's not a big rush to buy the iPhone 16e yet
Nah. Apple users are going to stay loyal to the Apple ecosystem. We’re just going to buy refurbished late model iPhones. See my other comment somewhere here,michelb76 said:If anything this model will make people look at Android phones at the same price point. Not great.
