  • Questionable rumor claims 'iPad Air 3' will have 4K display, 4GB RAM

    This sounds more like something Samsung or LG would do. Specs whores.

  • Bug or conscious change? Apple Pencil for iPad Pro gets gimped by iOS 9.3 betas

    It would be rather tedious and annoying to have to reposition or put down the pencil while navigating. Hope this is a bug.
    At first I thought the same. But then realized why can't you hold a pencil and navigate with one hand?

  • Munster: iPhone to return to growth in 2016 despite macroeconomic worries

    This is how the adults do it.  Ignore children like sog35, who are in way over their heads, and cannot contain a single emotion.
    Amen. The markets are not for the faint of heart. If you can't handle the volatility, put your money into guaranteed investments.
    You know going in full well, there's manipulation and factors beyond your control.

    And while I don't agree with everything Cook had done (from a product standpoint), it's highly unlikely he will be fired.  And constantly crying about it just make you look...well, like a child.

  • Microsoft Windows Phone chief Joe Belfiore tweets from an Apple iPhone

    I never knew Windows phone users were that passionate.

  • Apple shares open below $100 for first time since 2014

    I don't think so. There is just way too much smoke not to have a fire at this point. The March quarter will show an iPhone unit decline. But I would not panic. This is what I see the next few months: stock could go as low as $80 by Spring because of decline of iPhone units in March. But I see the stock resurging on news of the iPhone7 release and big gains in AppleWatch2 units. I expect to close the year at about $125. 
    Its herd mentality. No point in speculating. We'll know when Apple reports in a few weeks. But your comment about iPhone 7 just shows how pathetic this is. We've heard next to nothing about iPhone 7, certainly not anything that would point to it being some major change from the 6. So what exactly would the resurgence in the stock be for? If we're to believe these rumors and Apple is cutting orders for the 6S why should we believe people are going to rush out and buy the 7 or that we won't be talking about the same damn thing a year from now with analysts predicting 7 cuts but telling everyone things will get better with the 8.
    I don't think a new iPhone 7 will make a lick of difference. I believe there's a fundamental sea change in the smart phone market. The days of premium $700 phones are numbered and not a 'smart' buy. People are happy to get by with decent $300 phones that do 90% of what an iPhone does. Only your hard core Apple enthusiast will ooh and ahh and make the latest design, a must have upgrade.

    The sky is not falling, but when the iPhone makes up 70% of Apple's revenues, you have to wonder how hard and fast Apple stock can crash.
