I know that at least some of you are sick of this topic, but the AAPL response to the new phones has me feeling a bit grumpy this morning. Apple’s new iPhone names are bad, so it’s hard to see where it goes from here
On the other hand, here's a topic that I have almost no interest in, but I seem to be in the minority. Apple has fallen silent on the wireless charger it announced a year ago, and there's now a big risk it won't launch on time
I'm no position to judge this one due to the incredible good fortune that AAPL has given us, but Apple 'wants to serve everyone' with wide iPhone price range, Tim Cook says. We'll be sticking with our usual 2-year upgrade cycle, and I could not be happier with my iPhone X. I have an iPad and iMac when I want/need a bigger screen, but I realize that not everyone is so fortunate. In any case, I expect to see a world-wide panorama of lines around the Apple Stores in advance of the Friday release. Perhaps that will prod AAPL in the right direction.

Really like my new iPhone Xs. Got the 256, black version. Slightly larger than my iPhone 7, slightly smaller than my iPhone 7 Plus. It’s in the sweet spot of “slightly too big but not so big it’s unworkable.” I do miss the extra column in landscape view for some apps, reserved for the max sizes, but the dual camera 4K and neural engine is just indescribable as an upgrade. Now that Mrs. Rez is gone (if you missed her passing, brain cancer took her from us in January), I need all the help I can get to find a path to the future. About to lose my job, but decided a full mobile hardware upgrade was in order before I go back into retirement/hermit mode. Apple Watch 4 gold arrives next week. Can’t wait.
