I tried the iPhone 7 home button and Apple did a piss poor job at it. What a regression. It feels wrong.
And without tactical feedback you are indeed screwed in a colder environment. Like  anyone's going to buy separate gloves for their iPhone. Or is that another 'accessory' they'll ship with the iPhone to transition to a propriety set of gloves for $159?

Apple is obsessed with the wrong things.

No, you are not screwed. You just press the lock button. If you need to do more than that you needed to solve the issue before iPhone 7 anyway.

This is a non-issue. 1) If you need to "use" your phone you need to solve the cap touch issue (remove gloves, cap touch gloves, whatever). 2) If you only want to passively view the lock screen info (time, notifications you allow, etc) then press the lock button which does the same thing with no cap touch issues. If you then decide you want to interact with what you see, then go back to step 1. Sorry, no cap-touch gate issues here....

One of these days I will have to figure out why I cannot edit my posts. I get to save my sloppy first drafts for posterity.

This article has some problems. It says that Cook, Cue, and Joswiak were at the school and that they met up with Ahrendts later. She is in the photo in the back left right in front of that green umbrella. So she was at the school too and the four probably went to the store together.

I will be the first to admit to being a fan of Apple products, most of my consumer electronics are Apple products.  That being said what is going on with them lately.  One of the biggest features of the new iPhone 7+ is the dual cameras that allow for better portraits.  They spend what seems like a quarter of the event going over the feature, then at the end tell everyone the feature would not be available at launch, but should be available later this year.

Now the only real feature of TVOS 10 is the one click feature.   I was super excited this morning when I read that the TVOS is available, now I found out that the one feature I was going to use is not available and is coming soon.  In other words, since there is no date of timeframe, I am guessing it will not be available until next year, if the cable companies allow it at all.

They have not changed in that they will wait until it is ready before releasing it. The thing that has changed is they have so much in motion on various fronts that they no longer hold everything until that one thing is ready. Like the two camera DOF portrait mode. Lots of good pictures will be taken between now and when it is ready. It isn't as if the phone/camera is crippled. Some of the photos posted had a decent blur, but just not to the extent as the portrait mode will.
