    In 2020, Apple had to advise people against fitting slideable camera covers over the lens in the lid, because it was leading to cracked screens.

    Now that Apple is once again listening to customer feedback on MacBook designs, maybe they can take the hint from this sentence.

    …in less than two years we’ll have 5G mobile connections building out that are as fast as home connections, and cable ISPs will be in the fight of their lives.
    So are the phone telecoms giving any indication that they’re interested in serving ‘to the home’ Internet, or do you just think people will be okay with paying $20 per gigabyte?

    Forbes says they're planning deployments now, and the cable guys will be at a disadvantage, since the phone guys can bundle both home and mobile over the one network infrastructure. 5G apparently widens the mobile pipes so much they can offer the 1TB caps home users are accustomed to now.

    And eventually do it over most of the continent.
