Short Takes: Apple Event

Man oh man, when did Apple become so boring? Nothing new or innovative anymore. I used the iPhone as my phone, I love it, and prefer it over all others, so don't assume that I'm an Apple hater. The Latest Mac OS X LOOKd way better than windows 10, but just looks, not functions, and it's just not worth the price. I was most excited about Apple TV today than anything else. I knew they'd offer an over sized iPad, and a new iPhone, but the Apple TV was the only supposedly "new", and "fresh" thing, well was supposed to be at least. What a damn let down. As I've written in the past, I do all my TV watching online, no cable, no satellite. As I have for years. I either Stream from my pc, or use Netflix, or Sling TV for live TV. Apple TV was supposed to offer live streaming TV, or at least its what I was hoping, and offer more live streaming channels than both Sling, and the PlayStation Vita.

Apple Upgrade Program

One good thing  was announced was the Apple iPhone Upgrade program, which lets you pay a monthly fee every month, price is dependent on the phone and size you get, and you simply exchange the old one for a new gen after 12 months (if a newer gen is out by then). You basically get an unlocked iPhone, which Apple Care+ which is pretty cool! The bad thing about this upgrade program as of now, is its only available in the US, and it must take place at an APPLE STORE, which are very rare.
