  • First look: Apple's HomePod speaker

    HomePod won't be a mass selling device.  HomePad can only play Apple Music. And Apple Music has only 27 million paid subscribers.  Apple is getting greedy and greedy.  No wonder AAPL is downgraded today. 
    How do you know this as fact? 

    And the fact that they lowered prices on the macs discredits your hairbrained "Apple is greedy!" conspiracy theory. 
    Apple Music is a failure.  With the most powerful company in the world, after two years it is still not the number one music subscription service. And don't forget iPad had been the most popular music players for many years.

    That's not true. They clearly demoed a huge number of features for HomePad, not just as an Apple Music player.
    The other features can be done with iPhone. Most people have an iPhone. And HomeKit integration, that is rich people's hobby.

  • Apple Notes hides flexibility and power underneath a veneer of simplicity

    I always confuse Notes with Reminders.  They seem doing the same things.  Thus I have not fully utilized Notes. The most I use is Calendar.

  • Samsung 'Galaxy S8' assistant Bixby said to use camera-based visual search to take on Siri...

    No wonder Siri is stagnant.  The co-founders all left Apple. Then because of Tim Cook rigid management style, he does not find replacements.

  • Google struggling to meet consumer demand for iPhone 7 rival Pixel

    I ask Siri how heavy iPhone 7 Plus is.  It refers me to Apple.com.  I asked again what is the weight of iPhone 7 Plus.  It refers me to Apple.com again. Apparently Siri can only do keyword search but it can not understand a sentence. This is really primitive R&D engineering using grep.  No artificial intelligence.
