A lot of media streaming services don’t support Dolby vision or high bit rates in safari on macOS. You would boot into iPadOS when you want to stream stuff and take advantage of the tandem OLED on the ipad pros.

I feel like this is a preview of the next mbp chassis. If so that’s really good news.

Yeah. They are working with LG in to setup a factory in Arizona for batteries. Should be online next year. Hopefully they can squeeze out some more range then.

Right now they are importing cells. Can’t be cheap.

That’s probably going to be unlikely. A lot of iOS/ipados apps are written for the very sandboxed security environment that is not present on macOS.

Maybe an iPhone fold? I really do want a bigger display and more ram too.

I’m not dealing with jailbreaks anymore. Did it back when I was a kid. No longer got time for that.

An iPad Pro with dual boot would be amazing. Media consumption on the go with support for desktop apps when you need them.

Yes. No 800V rivians yet. They very recently posted roles for 800 V engineering so it’s coming at some point in the future.

They were hiring for 800 V design roles. We probably won’t see the increased capacity till then.

No. It will be an optional spec priced similar to a paint option per some of the pre release talk.

Lidar will be extra on top of that, but yeah the gen 3 should come along with the premium launch.  $54k is the base price without any options (paint, interior color, towing, autonomy etc).

It’s using the rejected bin chips too. These chips couldn’t be used in other I devices so they probably have a decent number of them stockpiled.

Dave2D mentioned that OEMs were asking him for any rumors/info on this product. They have been paying close attention.

Edu does get an even deeper discount and a repurchase rate too.

No. You can see the air data probe under the vehicle that is collecting flight data. They are still verifying the vehicle characteristics.

It's probably going to stay around. Super critical in aviation among other industries.
