i guess that apple television set is still on hold
They don't really create the buzz or have to create it. The media starts it and it spreads like wildfire.
Does Apple have any history of responding to rumors? Maybe it's happened, but I can't recall any instances.
Little is known about Apple's electric car, but rumors have suggested that it may or may not be self-driving
I don't know if Apple does, but "sources familiar with the matter" certainly do.![]()
Sheerly guessing, Musk doesn't seem like the type to just sell. I think he's the type that would compete for the sake, or fun, of it.
I'm sure that's not the only factor, but it's a factor.
UGGGGG. I am NOT looking forward to 5 years of rumors with no product announcement. I'm already getting tired of them.
Every time I see these stories, I think of this video, no lie:
What's television?
We have DVDs
We had VHS.
No need for TV.
Too much like VD.
We have the Internet.
Much better.
They rarely respond to something they're not planning on revealing soon. And the confirmation is pretty terse too. You're not going to get details.
If a further leak about the watch happened right now. You'd possibly get a back door confirmation. But, a car rumor... I don't think so.
Can someone explain why Apple would be leaking this now? I just find if baffling.
Well I'd love to know who is pushing these rumors and why.
The Wall Street Journal reported it, Reuters reported it, Financial Times reported and now Bloomberg. I mean, at this point, who else you need to report it? Tim Cook himself? It's happening.
I really hope not...
This is the logical option. Apple has too many competitors for its own good. Don't get me wrong, I want to buy all-everything too, but I have always had a natural affinity for Tesla and would not like the hypothetical choice I would have to make.

Such a good sketch. Can't believe I forgot about key and peele

As Hulu says: you know you want to watch more TV.
Why would you really hope not? Why does it matter?

Well thank heavens you're not the head of Apple. Quite a few people had your exact stifled way of thinking when it was rumored that Apple would be getting into the cell phone business....and when Steve Jobs said he would get people into buying music again when illegal torrenting and file sharing was the norm. Nuff said.

Excellent! Stay off the internet and ignore the media and you got your wish.

One of my criticisms of Apple is the way they play their cards so close to the vest. Creating some buzz now and then wouldn't be such a bad idea. If they are doing it here, it would be something new and very different. Personally it seems to me this is just the media wildly extrapolating off of very thin information. So what else is new?
