Shop, buy, track and pick up. The niftier features in this release are US only and require a newer iPhone — 4 or 4S only. However, Apple being Apple, time will see the cool new functionality rolled out to more countries and devices. Nevertheless, I’m wondering why this app hasn’t been optimized for iPad.
If you’re gonna flip flop, do it with gusto. Apparently, that’s the attitude taken by Forrester Research which has for years — credit for consistency — strongly advocated against Macs. Now, the enterprise consultant not only says Macs are good, they’re promoting digital diversity and have created an acronym to push the concept.
Upon hearing that Apple posted a net profit of $6.62 billion on revenues of $28.27 billion, or $7.05 per share, “investors” prompted sent AAPL lower — go figure. The company beat its own guidance, but fell short of analyst expectations. What’s up with that? Consumers held off buying ahead of the iPhone 4S and that led to the “disappointing” results.
Outside of retail, about 20,000 people work for the mothership. Thereupon, 5 percent of those are engineers designing the chips used in the company’s world beating smartphones and tablets. That goes a long way to explaining why the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad outperform and outlast the competition while costing less to produce.
Smash your Apple devices and sell any AAPL shares you may be holding — without Steve Jobs the whole house of cards is gonna come crashing down. Well, not, and we know this because the master alchemist left loaves baking in the oven, enough for four years.
There are new iPhones to love and they’ll be here very, very soon. However, this ifan hasn’t a nickel to spare, but that doesn’t mean I won’t be getting my fair share of the iphun and you can, too. Step inside for invitation to the celebration of a singularly influential lifetime.
Apple has gotten a lot of bad press for its litigious ways. Whereas no one doubts that Cupertino invented the smartphone and tablet, people have faulted the company for fighting its product battles in court versus letting nature take its course in the marketplace. But that’s not the whole picture.
Users and pundits alike have panned Apple’s 2011 Back to School promotion, sparking some analysts to predict poor Mac sales. However, data from the real world points robust Mac sales, though the same survey raises questions about iPhone and iPad popularity at US universities.
New kit coming and who doesn’t like fresh gear? Recently, the mothership rolled updated Airport Extreme Base Station and Time Capsule hub, bringing full 450Mbps throughput — soon coming to Airport Express, too, before Apple’s much anticipated iCloud reveal.
Apple has been on the receiving of geek grief and angst for suing competitors over use of its App Store trademark. Whereas the technorati argue the term should be viewed as generic and ubiquitous, they miss the obvious point that it was Apple who made it that way. And, yeah, they own it, too.
