Lees meerSay what you will about the thrill of the the hunt. Apple leakers have taken almost all of the fun out of the company’s events. It’s gotten to the point that anything we don’t know about ahead of time sticks out like a sore thumb. Add to this the di…
Lees meerAnd that game would be called bait and switch. Or maybe it’s just a little deck shuffling slight of hand. Either way, the iPad Air still isn’t here and if you believe the Apple rumor mill, it sounds like it won’t be here after today’s event, either.…
Lees meerThere have been rumors that Apple will release a half-size version of the HomePod for a long time, but I never had any interest in them. I bought the original HomePod to use as a speaker, so I wasn’t severely disappointed with its shortcomings as an…

Lees meerSo Apple didn’t let me down as much as I thought they would. The second Apple Watch order I placed with them after they cancelled my first one arrived on Monday, rather than in mid-November as they first predicted. Not too bad I guess, especially si…
Lees meerSo I bought a thing this weekend. My Apple Watch showed up Friday, so I’ve been spending some time getting used to the new features, but that wasn’t the only new device I got that day. I had been looking at Surface Duo reviews and, while somewhat sk…
Lees meerAfter Apple cancelled my first order and my second initially had a delivery estimate in mid November, I decided to start looking elsewhere. Fortunately, while they only offered two stock band options with the Stainless Steel Series 6 in Gold, BestBu…
Lees meerEven the hardest of hardcore Apple fans should be able to admit that Samsung makes some really nice gear now. Long gone are the days of cheap feeling, creaky plastic devices with low quality accessories. Odd exception aside, they make some really im…
Lees meeriPad Pro rumors have been like a tennis match the last couple of years- back and forth and all over the place. There were rumors one would come late last year. That obviously didn’t happen, but we did get a slight refresh in the Spring. Very slight,…
Lees meerOne of the top leakers in the biz had something to say about one of Apple’s newest tablets earlier this evening. According to Jon Prosser, preorder time for the new iPad Air could be as early as tomorrow. He kind of went the more cryptic, L0vetodrea…

Lees meerAnd I’m not talking about a service from Apple A month ago, it looked like Apple had thrown down a gauntlet when it came to game streaming services. They had already been unreceptive to Google’s Stadia and NVIDIA’s GeForce. Steam was forced to creat…
Lees meerBackpacks have been my preferred computer bag for years now. I like having my arms free to carry other things and the weight of all my gear evenly distributed. If you also value the practical convenience of a good backpack, here’s one to take a look…
Lees meerCourtesy of a couple of reports from Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPad Pro has re-joined the Apple rumor carousel. It seems that the company and it’s manufacturing partners are having some success getting Mini-LED ready for prime time, and the iPad Pro may be …

Lees meerIf you get a text or an email from Apple saying that your Apple Watch Series 6 order cannot be processed and to call them, you had better pay close attention to what the person on the phone is saying. I had the misfortune of getting such an email ea…
Lees meerIn spite of the new iPad Air, there are still some good reasons. I’ve seen where a lot of tech bloggers and Apple fans are talking about the irrelevance of the iPad Pro in the wake of Apple’s hardware announcement earlier this week. I get it, so muc…
Lees meerI just packaged up my Series 5 to ship out after selling it a couple of days ago, so it will be a long two weeks waiting for my new Series 6 to arrive. That said, I’m happy I got what I was able to out of it. Stainless Apple Watches aren’t cheap, so…
