I am extremely glad that Apple's Service business is extending the reach out in other are. Apple TV+ has really improved with their offerings. I am really enjoying the new content that they have been delivering. Yes, they could do better with introducing some new killer hardware. I do think that Vision Pro is a game changer, but pricing was way out there, but I think there has to be a strategy behind that. Meta has been trying so hard with their AR/VR offering for so many years, but it hasn't yet achieved that high adaption, even after selling $399 product. They seem to be after the gamers only. And, it is fully, when last year Apple Intelligence was announced and right away people had negative view and when they explained that it was focusing on inference side and not those big data model side and people started saying "Oh! I get it now". Yes, of course, their execution was a miss and they said they will hae something better in 2026. I think it was crazy for people to expect something at WWDC 2025, because that wasn't even in they play book. Let's wait and see what they do in 2026. 

I am really enjoying Severance, even if does require little engagement to understand what is going on. It took little longer, but I think Apple has really turned on their A game and the contents has improved a lot. Of course, Ted Lasso was great. I am really enjoying Prime Target, Silo, Mythic Quest, Shrinking, Slow Horses, For All Mankind, Tehran, Dark Matter. I am waiting for next season of Foundation. 

What’s wrong with buying his clothing? If someone can provide me with authenticity certificate I will buy it. I would have loved to buy his glasses that he wore 

This is nothing new. Just this afternoon I was watching Melissa Lee and her team on “Fast Money” - I know, I need to find a better financial news channel ;-) And she was spewing unintelligent comment about Apple. Tim and his team are smart people and this makes perfect sense. This does look like a stop gap solution. They are apparently extending the search deal they have with Google. Just the way got into Silicon business while using Intel, they will do the same with AI solution. Apple already has plenty of AI tech they already deploy with their devices.

The idea of "foldable" died when those clamshell phone died. There is very limited use case for such device and I am sure Apple is not really wasting their time to follow steps of Samsung. I bet there are certainly alternative approaches Apple might be investing their time in. screen technology has changed - Why "foldable"? Why not "Scrollable"? Just imagine screen that rolling into double barreled  scroll. You pull the barrel and the screen appear. The screen dimension could be dynamic on home much it is open. You can go from landscape mode to portrait mode. The edges are one of those micro zip thingy so that it maintains the size and one can hold the phone from just one barrel. The input could be just through the keyboard on screen today. Or, maybe things might get much better so that keyboard is not much used. All the data entry and navigation is done via gesture and voice. The device could be put in the shirt pocket with a clip or it could be put in ladies pursue along with their lipsticks.
