ac+ is bad now but honestly i'd rather drop 30 a month than 800-900 at once, plus having to bother with selling the thing when i upgrade

"do i have to put an extra thing in my pocket for no reason other than to avoid losing it?" is a question someone concerned with actual good design would ask themselves

can't wait to double check that I have my iPhone before leaving the house

and to also check that I have my EarPods charge case (lol autocorrect autocorrects EarPods)

and to also check that I have my dongle just in case my EarPods die

and to also check that I have my wired headphones to plug into my dongle

it just works! (tm)

And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

why do you need to stop and start the app more often than once (each)

according to their site it's just a normal 24 mo payment plan but you can trade in halfway through (or after 6 months if you pay off half of it)

http://www.apple.com/shop/iphone/iphone-upgrade-program

and the extra cost is just having applecare+ included

i'd honestly do it but i still have a year left on my iPhone so i'll just wait

because you should aim to keep your hart rate in a certain zone for training heart rate monitors are really common for running

and you often need to pause your running app to re tie your shoe lace or when waiting at traffic lights or for a million other reasons

apple keeps making terrible hardware decisions. software is still ok, there have been some mistakes and fuckups but then you look at what's going on with windows and android and hoo boy are things hosed up there. maybe android will magically improve a huge amount but then the hardware side of things is a mess and now google is going to completely screw up the entire nexus concept.

i don't know anymore man. the inevitable mac upgrades should be a hoot, at least
