Wonder if there will be someone asking Tim about the recent privacy debacle. I'm guessing none.

Wouldn't be surprised if iJ was a creation of Apple or at least bankrolled. Noone can get that over excited over often bland products and there is no bite or criticism, even when warranted. Not a fan.

Honestly Macrumors? The type of content she is posting (and always has been) totally indicated that she is Apple-paid journalist just to promote their products, her interview is bias.
