Apple Wallet's Connected Accounts may come to the US
Is this something we even want? I'm not at all sure I'd be comfortable with that.

Apple's new iCloud+ tiers are too much for consumers, too little for professionals
coolfactor said:There's also the internet connections to contend with. Who's going to upload 6TB of data over a home internet connection? Maybe Apple needs to get into the business of "Ship your data to us. Here's a portable drive and a return mailing box."?My home internet connection is currently 500/150 megabit. I'll be switching to a gigabit symmetrical connection next year as soon as the fiber gets to my neighborhood.Gigabit fiber is $65/month here. 6TB isn't that big a deal any more.

Apple's 'Mother Nature' sketch was a complete dud, and didn't belong in the iPhone 15 even...
richfbrown13 said:I totally agree with the author on this. I was listening to hear about the new products, not to get an overly long virtue signaling skit, especially since this was also talked about in conjunction with almost all the products. It's good that Apple is environmentally conscious, but this was way too much.I have no problem with virtue signaling, particularly when it's actually justified. And some of Apple's is - though they deserve HUGE black marks for repairability. Recycling is the FINAL step, not the first, in the reduce - reuse - recycle triangle. Apple's trade-in program hurts the secondary market, as do Apple's user-hostile repair policies.The skit was just cringe. Absolutely terribly written, and a stupid concept. The information could have been presented in an informative way, without the ridiculous "mother nature" character. And the writer is a dirty scab.

Apple will frame iPhone 15 USB-C switch as a consumer win
It IS a consumer win.And it's a win we wouldn't have gotten if the EU hadn't forced Apple to do it.

This may be the best look yet at the iPhone 15 color assortment
Three off-whites and a pink.Black it is. No other options.
