  • Apple set to overhaul iPad Pro with OLED and Magic Keyboard revamp

    eriamjheriamjh
    With the M2 in the current iPad Pros and the crazy expensive magic keyboard, Apple should be selling an iPad that can run MacOS And switch between the iPadOS GUI and MacOS.  

    If I’m paying laptop prices for an iPad/keyboard combo,  I want MacOS capabilities.    

    I love couch surfing and browsing and video watching on my iPad in my lap.   But iPadOS isn’t as efficient when there’s lots of files and software involved.  Both MacOS IPadOS use Apple Silicon, so why not give us both?  The chip is fully capable, isn’t it?   

    I guess what I’m saying is I want an IPad and a desktop not an iPad and a laptop.  The laptop part is a fine benefit of mobile computing, but when I want to sit at a keyboard and use a mouse, I do it at a desk with two 30” displays.   When I sit and surf, I want an iPad.  

    A laptop can never be an iPad, but an iPad can be a laptop if it has to be.   A laptop can be a desktop, so let an iPad be a desktop.    Give me MacOS.

  • Developers evangelize Apple Vision Pro labs in latest update

    Although highly biased, it’s nice to see enthusiasm for the platform,   Obviously, we’re not going to hear about the bugs and awkward issues that developers have to overcome.   And I don’t want to hear about them.   Because everything new isn’t perfect at launch.

  • Apple Watch bands harbor dangerous bacteria -- because no one cleans them

    So what has happened to all those people over, say, the last 80 or 90 years who haven’t been washing their watch bands? Did they suffer from awful infections? I think we need to know.
    Some may have gotten sick.  Many, probably did not, like most of us who are living with less clean habits compared to germaphobes and everyone in between.  

    The problem is the clickbait study uses the typical FUD method of sensationalism and attaches Apple’s name to it for clicks.  It could be informative, but falls on the other side of just being useful.  

    So clean you watchband if you are concerned.   And wash your hands.   Etc.

    And our iPhone screens are filthy, too.  And our AirPods.   And headphones.   And microphones.  And keyboards.   And mouses.   

    Tell us something we don’t know.   

    Just replace Apple with a blank space and publish this article every couple years to remind us.
