Never have used Facebook. More important things to do with my time.

Should I cancel my mini order? Sigh. 

Upgraded from generation 5 to the new iPad mini on launch day. It keeps impressing me with how fast USB-C charges the iPad, fingerprint ID on the on/off button is so responsive to touch and the overall speed performance with the A-15 ship is unbelievably fast. A superb device. No problems 🤞.

I can think of a few other institutions that should have a mandatory retirement age at 75.

A very informative review. Thank you. 

What a joke. This product and service was doomed to fail from the start.

Why do people continue to use the word cheap when describing entry level and lesser expensive Apple device models. Apple does not make cheap products. They make premium quality products with different entry price points and features. The word cheap should never be used in an article regarding Apple.

Strange timing for retirement. 

The VP is not considered a resounding success and is almost a beta-level product. Not the usual Apple standard. 

With obvious need to follow up and redesign the AR/VR goggles into something more mainstream compatible, why retire now?

seems more like a “hey buddy, thanks for everything, but it’s time” kind of convo had taken place. 

I wonder if this is the guy who pushed past Srouji and everyone who knew it wasn’t ready for prime time and got Tim on board. Bet Tim regrets it internally. He’ll never state that publicly, but he’s got to be wishing he had a do-over. 

After working for any company for 36 years you have the right to retire whenever you want and for whatever reason you want to. I am sure Apple knew this was going to happen and has taking every measure to assure a smooth transition.

Glad to see you referring to the HomePod Mini as having “a lower price point” compared to the original HomePod. much better than referring to it as a “cheaper” model.

Make
s sense. If cook said he was going to build at home snd thrn got some exemptions, but then gave indication of going back on his word, then the tarriffs would factor again. 

Pretty sure if cook committee to doing SOMETHING in the usa soon, there would be no tarriffs. 

Apple has escaped so far. And now they’re in tje hot seat. Hopefully they make the right decision and do something back home. 

It’s a tough spot. But it’s also important to make the hard decisions today in order to secure a brighter tomorrow. 

A brighter tomorrow is when we have a new president.

So, is someone going to write an explanation of the [future] plot?
The cliffhanger at the end of episode 1 was truly annoying.

I am not surprised. It was terrible. I gave it 1 star on rotten Tomatoes.

The whole movie was annoying.
