 a better use of my money would be an inexpensive but good-quality (think Anker for example) Qi charging pad large enough that it has two coils -- one for my iPhone 8, the other for my future purchase of the new AirPods w/wireless charging case. I'll cope (somehow) with having to place them in the right spots to charge.

take a look at an Ikea Triple Pad - three wireless coils PLUS a USB-A port for an iPad etc. Available in birch too - i've got one some time ago and it works great, has some 'crosshairs' so easy to see where to place your phone etc.
Around $60 i think in US

You can get it on amazon too i think if suffering a visit to Ikea is too much ;-)

Repeating something irrelevant doesn’t make it more relevant. 

Repeating that something is irrelevant doesn't make it irrelevant.

Try and explain why you think it is irrelevant.

The physical Apple store doesn't sell Microsoft or Google hardware.
What makes the online App store so special in your view? 

Don't forget down there in the 'Others'... going to an early grave next to the Zune is...

"“Bye bye, Band: Microsoft to end support for fitness wearable device and health dashboard.”

Oh, nose /s


here's the Macalope's take on it

Have been waiting for this... will keep my current ipad mini for work.

Hoping new one has same overall dimensions - with narrow side bezels and minimal top/bottom to allow for larger and substantially wider in landscape screen, with faceid... and why not make it the largest Apple OLED screen while they're about it

Of course none of the readers here would ever buy a ”Scamsung” TV, right?

That’s right! Dumped my Samsung TV for a Sony, which unfortunately has a garbage android TV package. I wish Apple would work with quality TV manufacturers to supply an iOS TV so we don’t have to worry about Android anywhere in our house. 

When  my Panasonic LCD TV died ( 6 months after the warranty expired, ho ho)... did not even consider a Samsung TV.

Was either LG or Sony OLED.
So Sony A8F it was... and an ATV 4k - not just for Infuse but also to avoid Android TV ( I've  used a Minix android box previously ).
