Exactly. Good thing they only need to make one for me and then can stop production.

Bought my wife an 8 last night because her 6s died. She was dead set against the X. I on the other hand will place an order on the 27th and hope us snow Mexicans can get deliveries before the end of 2017!
Apple didn't violate anything, and last year I was able to upgrade to any model. This year I could have upgraded to an 8. Technically it's a bank loan Apple sets up for you, after 12 payments I can turn in the phone, or I can keep paying and own the phone after 24 months. In this case it's a turn-in after 13 months, so it cost me an extra payment to wait for the X.
Definitely the range.
We need now to think in terms of milliseconds. 4.3 seconds, or 4300 milliseconds.
Any more news like today, and we will need nanoseconds: 4,300,000,000 nanoseconds, which is looking better.
No, they're not supposed to manufacture 36M phones in 22 days, read the article, it's an estimate for the entire year. The camera system has been perfected, it worked perfectly at the demo, the "fail" was fake news, someone else accessed it before Craig did. The demand will definitely outstrip supply for months, but there will be no compromises, X will blow even the 8/plus out of the water.
Ha, if reason and common sense is now considered Apple Kool-aid, then yes!
Are you suggesting that it would've been harder for Apple to include physical bezels or that somehow the notch wasn't deliberate? If so, it sounds to me like you've been doing more than drinking Kool-Aid.
I’m not giving them credit for the notch as if it’s something desirable or clever. There is no good reason to push content up into the ears. They’re doing it so they can claim edge to edge display which is pure marketing drivel. Nobody was clamoring for a notch, yet Apple is cramming it down the throats of the users and developers and trying to pretend like it isn’t a silly design compromise.
Yes, but a first gem Apple product with huge manufacturing problems and incredibly low yields.....
You know where this will lead to....
Reports. Apple denial, class action lawsuits... another ‘known Apple issue’ case reference and world wide free repair policy.

8 or 8 Plus? If it’s the 8 what do you make if it??
Heard that!Apparently, this is sort of catching on. And ya know, we need something these days
(that, and Prince Valium)
Apple didn't ship iPhone X yet, so your conclusion is wrong, they want to be ready that's why delay rumors.
The hype is building as we speak. Apple knows more than you do. They released it at the proper time.
Pretty confident those who order within 5 minutes of store opening will see a 2017 delivery, but not necessarily a launch day one.
I'm so glad that I bought the 8 Plus! I'm down with beta testing software, but beta testing hardware (and paying for the privilege) isn't relevant to my interests.
They assembled less than planned as yield rates of the components provided by the suppliers are too high. The ones already produced should do their job, as seen (more or less) at the keynote.
My iPhone 8 will be eligible for trade in by the time this thing launches and that's not even a joke.
No company really ships a product until it's ready...are you implying they're shipping out unassembled iPhone Xs right now? Strange thing to say.
You know "announced" and "shipped" aren't the same thing, right?

What are you talking about....you getting squeezed on that short position a little too hard?
