What I shared on Twitter, and a bit more…
Is it just me? Or is #iCloud faster now? My keynote files sync faster and also when sending photos with #iMessage too. Anyone else?
With #iPhoneSE, #Apple is confirming that 4 inch screen size is here to stay, at least for another 2-3 years.
Pricing isn’t just about the cost to make the product! It’s more about the perceived value.

For $599, I expect #Oculus Rift to use best components, 2160×1200 resolution screen is not market leading, #Sony mobile can do 3840×2160.
#Oculus Rift is finally here after 3.5 years since their kickstarter success. Their competitors have been working hard too.
Come on, this is just a rather 2D and DIY version of VR and AR! #WhereIsSeveGatsNow http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/35900804/kenyan-woman-edits-herself-into-holiday-photos-with-hilarious-consequences
#Apple just took on #Kindle with #iCloud for iBooks. You can now store all your epubs and PDFs online and sync across all Apple devices.
For phones, advertise with “if you don’t have an #iPhone”, etc. But with watches, I don’t want to be wearing the same watch as the next guy.
#Fitbit is down ~50% year to date. 2015 #1 wearable maker. Apple doesn’t share sales figures, but is it hard to imagine they are #1 now?
#Pebble laying off 40 people, 25% of their team. Somehow it reminds me of Palm Treo killed quickly by #iPhone and #Android.
Finally, OS X #ElCapitan is now required to run latest #Xcode 7.3. A very good reason to upgrade everyone to the latest OS.
#HealthKit, #ResearchKit and #CareKit, Apple will be driving innovative healthcare services with secure big data whilst preserving privacy.
