BGR - As Apple (AAPL) prepares to launch what by all accounts will be the most successful device it has ever built — and just a few weeks after the company was awarded more than $1 billion in damages when Samsung (005930) was found to have infringed on its IP — an article penned by a former Apple executive questions exactly what Apple’s role is in the consumer electronics industry. Jean-Louis Gassee, who came very close to becoming the president of Apple in the late 1980s before being ousted by CEO John Scully and Apple’s board, claims that while Apple’s success in the industry cannot be disputed, its perception as an innovator is open to discussion.
Vision Pro is here and it’s a surprisingly capable device. Apple has also loaded the headset with a ton of options and features that aren’t obvious at first glance.

Apple is anticipated to announce the new OLED iPad Pro this spring. Although there has been considerable speculation about the product, it’s always reassuring when Apple officially confirms certain features through upcoming software updates.
I've fixed the images on some of these past submissions of yours. Please in the future make sure the image isn't broken on submission.( I always found it best to download/upload it to be honest. )
Good, now how long before Apple Loyalist admit this too & abandon the belief the Apple invented everything.
Seems like a barrel of sour grapes to me.
iPhone STILL doesn't allow you to use memory cards or replace the battery. I mean come on, how much more of an arse fucking do you really want on top of your £50-a-month phone contract?
"Oh but its the latest iThing thats newer than the one i've got now so its shiny...er. it also doesn't do ANYTHING new on top of my 4S but i'll happily tie myself into another 24 month phone contract as I lack common sense to a degree that is unparalleled by most normal people"
They didn't innovate in technology itself, but it's availability. They took the prohibitively complex computer and made the Model T equivalent, simple enough anyone can use. If only Steve Jobs had Henry Ford's sense of solidarity for his fellow man than everyone would have an iPhone!
They're business practices are another story altogether. They're market share is inflated greatly from the ignorance of their customers, something anyone with a clue can't help but notice. They're patent trolls and they stifle innovation and progress because the greed of the American culture has no limits. They exported American jobs to import Chinese products. They are essentially a liability to the welfare of the nation, who cares how successful they are if it only makes them more greedy.
bla bla bla same thing over and over again my phone is better then yours bla bla if you like the phone then use it if not shut the hell up
