What do you call rumors of a project never announced or confirmed being unofficially cancelled? A funny topic to be thoroughly explored (revoked and denied) by the GMen. Australian banks are all mad at Apple except for the one making lots of money off ApplePay, Samsung on fire jokes, a Drobo gets expanded, email gets fixed, a phone gets replaced, and apparently some new Macs will be out soon.

But there are still things about the iPhone I miss, and one thing especially is the power cable with Lightning connector. There is something to be said for a connector that can be easily and quickly plugged into the phone without having to look and rotate the connector to the proper orientation. This is especially nice in low light or while driving.
