Tim Cook says he always knew Apple would arrive at the Apple Vision Pro
As an admitted Apple fanboy, I use Apple products daily: from the Apple Watch, iPad, iPhone, to the MacBook Pro. They make my work and life more enjoyable and productive. However, I have no interest (at this time) in purchasing the Vision Pro because of the cost and the lack of a clear use case for me. However, that said, I think it's like many other Apple products that have been created in the past. It will be the vehicle that brilliant app developers will create a market and create killer apps for. That combined with the refinement of the product in size, weight, cost, and form factor, and it won't be long before the market will explode for versions of it. And, I believe due to the development dollars that Apple has invested, this is just the tip of the iceberg of products that will cascade from or use technology developed for it (ie: eyeglasses, Apple Car, 3D cameras/3D video, etc..). I think it's a mistake to look at this first iteration of this technology to judge whether it will be a success for the company.

Me too!shareef777 said:Well, just got an email that my MBP16 was pushed back from a 11/17-24 delivery to 12/14-21, so not sure what this report is talking about shipping times shrinking!
My delivery of the new 16" MacBook Pro has been pushed back from 11/12-17 to 11/26-30. :-(
Can't wait!

Apple Fitness+ review: A physical & mental health godsend during the pandemic winter
Can Apple Fitness+ be improved? Of course, but I think it's a great beginning. I like the production values, I like the trainers, I like the stats and tie-ins with my watch and health app, and I like the workouts that I've done. I use it consistently for running, biking, and rowing.One improvement comes to mind and that is the ability to be able to fast forward through a workout. There are times when you could lose an internet connection and it would be nice to get back to where you were, and it would be great to be able to preview a class by scanning through it.I like the smiling, friendly, and encouraging instructors, but when they add comments between the trainers like what are your goals or what are some of your favorite memories, once you've done the workout a few times that gets old. How many times do you need to hear Sam say that her goal is to be the best she can be? So, that sort of thing makes the class more dated.But, overall, I think Apple Fitness+ is a great value for what it is and I look forward to seeing the app evolve. Meanwhile, through my use of it, I've toned up and lost a few COVID pounds.

Tile launches Premium Protect with $1000 lost item reimbursement promise
If you just want to attach your Tile to your bike, just use a plastic zip tie. There are multiple places you could attach it that way.Eric_WVGG said:
not to sound all hand-wavey, but there’s an entire industry called "insurance" that has over a century of learning how to deal with fraud.wood1208 said:Not a smart move. People can lost expensive item attached with tile tag and can't locate so get $1000 ?
I wanted to stick a Tile on my bicycle, but I could never figure out a way to attach one beyond glue, and have very little faith in glue holding up during bad weather.
