@BasicAppleGuy yes, it sucks. Looking forward to seeing some good third party replacements. Popped into Apple Store in Rome yesterday just to doublecheck that although I am ripe for iPad Air upgrade asap, Magic Keyboard is an uninteresting option for me (too heavy, too bulky, too pricey).

@davemark Curious if we get an updated Smart Keyboard Folio for the new iPad Air.

The only keyboard option presented was the new Magic Keyboard - heavier and more expensive than the Smart Keyboard Folio.

"'iPhone 17 Slim' Said to Feature 6.55-Inch Display"

I get that this is a rumor (driven by supply chain suppliers), but I love the idea. Skinny for skinny pockets.

Is it real? Who knows. 🤔

“This speaks volumes of the incompetence at work here.”

What a fantastic episode of podcast on the ideological battles around Apple on both sides of the pond. W/ @asymco & @Judd.

(you know I usually prefer a positive framing though sometimes, I believe you need to put it straight. It’s worth picking your battles 😉)

Ebikes made 56% of all bicycles sold in the Netherlands in 2023. In terms of value (💶), ebikes took even a higher share of 80% of the €1,4 billion.

It’s been already 5 years since e-bikes made majority of sold units in NL, the share keeps on growing. Other key European markets following with 2-4 years delay.

Oh, and by the way, the Dutch kept of buying more e-bikes than all cars - not only electric, but all cars - together.

@herbert_tiemens @Brendanjones This and the fact e-bikes simply enable comfortable rides for longer distances while we ain’t getting younger.

I certainly love my #omafiets yet really really like this type of innovation and progress.

@publicvoit beside no backlight (, what exactly is missing on a fixie with an integrated battery if positioned and presented as such? If customers know in advance and go for it, isn’t that a choice?

You know the tide is turning when Arval, one of the key players in car leasing and corporate fleets in Europe present their performance of first 6 months of 2023 with a photo of an electric scooter (instead of a car, or even an electric car 😉).
