This PDF goes over those vendors that support Apple Pay in their stores or will before the end of 2014 - The Forces of Good.  Vs those that are part of MCX - which is not going to support Apple Pay - The Forces of Evil.  

 

The easiest way to let those forces of Evil know what you think is to speak with your wallet iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus - and use Apple Pay at their competitors.  

 

More about this on the next episode of Today in iOS.

9.9.2014 Apple Event Rumor Bingo

Click to get larger version

 
First - I would like to point out - not everything on the bingo card are things I think will happen. Some actually conflict with others. However, these are the top rumors out there leading into the 9.9.2014 event.  And no there is no Apple TV listed - it actually just missed the cut.
 
For those items I think are most likely to happen they are:
 
- 4.7" iPhone 
- 5.5" iPhone
- A8 Processor with M8 Motion Processor
- Sapphire Glass - even if just for one or two specific options of the iPhone.
- 13 MP rear Camera
- iWatch - announced - and it being available in Dec 2014.
And
- 128 GB Version of the iPhone finally.
 
Those are the ones I think are the most likely to happen - and if they did - we get an X on the bingo card.
 
Others likely to happen.
 
- iPhone 4S killed off.  But I think the 5C and 5S remain active and for sale.
- iPhone Power button moves to the side of the iPhone from the top.
- 4.7" iPhone available on Sept 19th.
- 5.5" iPhone not available until the end of October.
- iPhone 6 and iPhone Air are the names for the 4.7" and 5.5" respectively.
- a Barometer is added to the sensors 
- Camera Sticks out of the iPhone and is not flush with the back.
- 2 GHz clock speed for the A8 - but not actually announced at the event.  
And
- Apple introduces a reversible USB cable.
 
 
Others that might happen listed are:
 
- Light up rear Apple logo
- Wifi 802.11.AC - hold over from last years bingo card.
- 4k Video recording and 4k video out - also hold overs from last year
- NFC - again a holdover from last year and the year before.
- 12 Hr 3G talk time - Yup Hold over from last year as well. 
- 2 GB Ram - You guessed it hold over from last year. 
And finally
- iPhone 6 and 6L are the names used (I don't think that will happen)
 
Again Definitely not all these rumor will come to pass and if history repeats itself most will not.  But some will. 

 
 
For those sight impared here is the actual layout of the bingo card going left to right.
 
Top Row:
4.7" iPhone
iPhone 4S killed off
iPhone Power Button moved to side
iPhone 4.7" available September 19th
128 GB Version
 
Second Row:
Camera sticks out - not flush with back of iPhone
A8 Processor with M8 Motion Processor

Last Quarter Sales:

iPhones Sold = 33.8 Mil (vs 26.9 Mil a year ago quarter and 31.2 Mil last quarter)

iPads Sold = 14.1 Mil (vs 14 Mil a year ago quarter and 14.6 Mil last quarter)

iPod Touches Sold = Not given as usual but over half of the 3.5 Mil iPods sold

All iPod's Sold = 3.5 Mil  (vs 5.3 Mil a year ago quarter and 4.6 Mil last quarter)

 

Misc Notes:

International sales were 60% of sales

14.3 Mil in Channel inventory that is +3.3 Mil iPhones in Channel inventory for the quarter.

4.1 Mil Channel inventory same as beginning of the quarter.

iPhone 4S is Apples low cost entry - not the 5C.

iPhone 5S and 5C launch day reports

The pic above is from the Apple store in Leawood KS.  

 

 9:00 AM CT

 I have my Space Grey 5s 64 gb iPhone.  It was not my first or second choice - but it was my third.  

 

Based on the feed back below - that seems to be many peoples feelings - at least the ones of us lucky enough to get an iPhone 5S today.  Right now based on the initial feedback it seems today's launch went very very poorly.  You don't want people waiting in line for 3, 4, 10 or more hours walking away with out their first choice.  

 

Leawood KS - Apple Store -  No Gold 5S, Limited stock of Silver 5S and none at 64 GB, No Sprint iPhones.

Orlando - AT&T - Only Space Grey 5S

Glendale WI - Apple Store - No Gold 5S

Springfield MO - AT&T - only Space Grey 5S 64GB

Minneapolis MN - Apple Store - Only Space Grey 5S

Palisades Mall NY - Apple Store - Only Space Grey 5S - 16/32 GB only

Clifton NJ - AT&T - Only Space Grey 5S

Paris France - Bouygues Telecom - Only Space Grey 5S

Michigan - Apple Store - No Verizon 5S - just 2 Gold 5S over all 

Saddle Creek - Apple Store - Only Space Grey 5S

 

 

3:53 AM CT

Reports from thos that ordered on line were 1. There was no pick up option - so you need to be in line if you want to get an iPhone 5S today.  and 2. Those that their orders did not go through until 30 minutes or more after orders started are reporting October 10th delivery dates.  

 

2:00 AM CT 

I arived in line at 1:30 AM - I was 26th in line.

 

Apple employees already warned the line there will be very limited stock of the iPhone 5S - especially the Gold version.

IDC reports and Google confirms that over 50% of All Android Tablets are not selling.

How is that for a link bait / attention grabbing title?

But if you look at what IDC just reported and what Google has reported - it is a title that you can actually justify - even if it is meant tongue in cheek.  

Let me explain how I came to that title.  IDC reported that last quarter Android manufacturers shipped 28.2 Million tablets. 

Google on the other hand when announcing the Nexus 7 (2) showed a chart of All time Android Tablet activations 

The absolute best you can get out of that chart is 14 Million tablets activated last quarter.  That means some 14.2 Million (greater than 50%) Android tablets were not activated - i.e. sold.  

We could have also said Google confirms more iPads were sold last quarter than Android tablets.  Again going with those numbers.  

And if we look at IDC's numbers - for Windows tablets - they have 2 Million Windows tablets for the quarter.  Yet from Microsoft's own 10K report we know at best there have been 1.6 Million Surface tablets sold as of October 2012.  If we went with 500k Windows tablets last quarter plus 14 Mil Android tablets and 200k other.  That would work out to a market share for the iPad of 49.8%.   

This is a far cry from the Link bait - truth twisted headlines we are seeing on the Fandroid sites - 

Here 

Here 

Here 

and 

Here 

In this upside down world where everyone seems to be beating up Apple and misreporting stats from research firms.  I found it really surprising that one of the best breakdown on the numbers per Tablet shipments / sales side, came from a post on an Android site.  HERE 

But again - one has to wonder what happened to those missing 14+ Million Android devices.  Seems lots of shelf space is being taken up by all those unsold Android tablets.  

To put into perspective how many unsold Android tablets there were last quarter - if you took all of them still in their boxes and laid them down end to end - they would stretch from New York city out past Salt Lake City.   Just Sayin.
