I do not think we will have one. Perhaps some iPads will get press releases? Doesn’t sound like the Mac Pro is ready and the headset sounds like a WWDC headliner.
What about the new iPhone 15 seasonal color, New Apple Watch bands (Spring edition). I thought Mac Pro is almost ready.. MacBook Air 15"?

Based on this. iOS 16.4 could be release to public March, 14 - March 28. Based on this it's launching in South Korea. Hmm!

Looks like a serial killer's ransom note.

Those are usually press releases unless there’s something else being released (like iPads). None of these items really merit their own “show”. Recall that the new MacBook Pro’s and iPad pros were released this way.

They are saving all their major efforts for WWDC and the headsets, in my opinion.
 
Well Grumman did say that next Mac Pro was being tested with MacOS 13.3 before the first 13.3 beta was even issued. So since 16.4 is paired with 13.3 it’s reasonable to suspect late March thru April for announcements.

Announcements, yes. Event? Not necessarily.

So looking forward to getting back into a (near-)weekly release cadence. How long has it been...? o_O
I’m highly expecting weekly releases moving forward. IOS 16.4 is due to be out to public around end of March. I’m speculating…

🔥 iOS 16.4 Beta 3 is coming on Tuesday. 🔥
 
UK hasn’t even got Apple Card yet, let alone Savings which may come in a beta soon…

…How is the card over there in the states? Decent Credit card in comparison?
 
Ok for buying Apple products but numerous other cards out there with much better rewards and rebates for general use.

But the card is titanium and clanks when you drop it. I’ve never had waitstaff at a restaurant oooh and ahhhh so much at a credit card.

Downside: the instructions Apple provides for cleaning the card (see https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210399 if you think I’m kidding!) are absolutely needed: it gets filthy. The other downside is that the card is white and that makes it difficult for waitstaff to see that you’ve left it out (against a white tablecloth or with a white tab printout).

I bet they will release a new Apple Card cleaning cloth for $19.99 to specifically clean it. And people will clamor to get it. Especially when its in short supply due to demand. 😂

I would be very happy if Apple can offer the Titanium Apple Card in Space Gray or Midnight.

Well it depends. I have an Apple Card and a Chase Card. Most of the time, I use the Apple Card with Apple Pay to get 2% off (Chase only has 1.5% off), but Chase has better rewards for certain categories like dining and drugstores. It's all about knowing when to use what.

Exactly. I do wish Apple would expand the number of 3% partners, it’s just less of a hassle to carry a bunch of card and to have to choose which categories to assign an any particular time period. I pretty much use ApplePay everywhere so I pretty much get 2% on everything. Combine that with the upcoming high yield savings account and I think it’s a winner
 
They shouldn't actually have a physical card? Just the digital one in your wallet. Do away with the tap limit and you're golden.
(tap limits can be implemented by either the financial institution or the merchants themselves). Market pressures would have the vendors get rid of their tap limits for secure contactless payment methods such as Apple Pay.

Apple's been pushing for Digital ID's in your Apple Wallet - we shouldn't be doing a throw-back to using cards. :)

Oh...and regarding credit card fraud - it could be eliminated if we don't have card numbers? :)

...and back on topic - maybe we get another build tomorrow? :)
