Where's the EU to force Amazon to open Kindles tablets for all reader apps, including Books? What's good for the goose...

There's a healthy mobile phone competition out there, if you don't want privacy and like to totally customize your experience then get an Android. Leave Apple as Apple for us who like and enjoy the peace of mind of a walled garden and data security. Governments across the globe have clearly developed totalitarian ambitions, they pretend their ambitions are for the good of all when they're obviously not.

And people wonder why Apple devices cost so much, it's because there's a lawsuit every other day whether it's frivolous or opportunistic.

Remember how thick laptops were? That's why thin is important. Also, we haven't seen Apple's multi-year roadmap and we may never will, unless someone leaks it. But there's a buttload of research and countless studies that go into these products. You can rest assured that Apple's top money maker is not designed by some single dude's bright idea.

I am glad I didn't upgrade to iPhone 16 from my 14.
Anyway, my only beef with Apple Intelligence is the buggy implementation of Smart Script. I spent over two hours at Apple stores to find out how I could get it to work correctly and discover any ux patterns I needed to follow, but I always ended up getting frustrated with all sorts of bugs. It's a fantastic idea if it worked, but in its current state it shouldn't even be in Beta it's definitely in Alpha.

I do remember when SJ introduced Siri he said it's a conversational voice assistant, over a decade later it is still not conversational.
