The last two product updates were mediocre at best, and the Apple fanboys will be running out of money pretty soon. -- Watch my future television channel's public test broadcast! »thecanadianpublic.com/live |

| said by elwoodblues:Not to.mention the lightning connector with no 3rd party products on the shelf Yeah thats freakin terrible.. Sure it may be a better connector, but the secrecy and no cooperation with manufacturers ahead of time is another huge blunder...
Not to mention the gouging for the adapters & cables... They should be giving them for free! --

I'm thankful I didn't fall into this lunacy when it (the original iPhone) came out. -- I'm not anti-social, I just don't like stupid people. |

 RiamenPremium join:2002-11-04 Calgary 1 edit | reply to Juggernaut Yes I read that earlier too but Apple itself has announced nothing, you said they did. This is nothing more than a bad rumour at this point from a questionable source. |
|
 JuggernautIrreverent or irrelevant?Premium join:2006-09-05 Kelowna, BC kudos:2 | I'd venture to say this is one of those valid industry rumours that ifolks cling to as religious facts. Now, you seem to want to refute that.
So be it. I don't care, nor buy their products. Never will. -- I'm not anti-social, I just don't like stupid people. |

 RiamenPremium join:2002-11-04 Calgary | I hardly an Apple fanboy since I own Android and iOS devices and use Windows and OS X. It's just that the source Commercial Times has a very poor track record in Apple punditry. |
|
 JuggernautIrreverent or irrelevant?Premium join:2006-09-05 Kelowna, BC kudos:2 | Good for you, and I say that truthfully.
There are so many better devices than what Apple puts out. The new BB10 touchscreen is one I have in mind to add to my collection. -- I'm not anti-social, I just don't like stupid people. |

 digitalfuturSees More Than ShownPremium join:2000-07-15 BurlingtonON kudos:2 | reply to Riamen Well, this is not a rumour. Apple decided to violate the spirit of a court-ordered apology to Samsung, and the presiding judge was plenty pissed off.
quote: the UK courts ordered Apple to pay Samsung's incidental costs, not just the legal fees. This includes costs the court would not typically award such as cups of coffee, taxi fares and the like; basically, every penny the lawyers spent on the proceeding.

 RiamenPremium join:2002-11-04 Calgary 1 edit | reply to Juggernaut Well I'm probably on my last Apple phone. I'm going to wait until my contract expires next year and then I look into something new. But you'll have to pry my MacBook Pro from my cold dead hands. |
