The Apple Page -- January 22, 2018

HomePod. We're going to start hearing about Apple's HomePod over the next few weeks. What is HomePod?  This is the link to the announcement.

Begin at 2:02:20.

It has the same computer chip in it as the iPhone has. Amazing. The other day we were in a Greek restaurant. Overhead was a song we really like but could not identify it. May pulled out her iPhone and asked Siri, "What song is this?" I did not think Siri could hear the overhead music, it was so noisy in the restaurant. Siri replied, "Talking Heads, Life During Wartime."

Lifetime During Wartime, Talking Heads

My wife loves her AirPods. Really, really loves her AirPods.

We love our UE Boom, but for $350, the HomePod seems like a no-brainer. Like AirPods, the HomePod will fly off the shelves, and my hunch: there will be a shortage from day 1.

It was supposed to ship in December. It was delayed. But now, just around the corner.
