Apple will launch its iPhone 6s family of smartphones in a couple of months, but don’t expect a major redesign just yet. The handsets should pack several improvements across the board when compared to the iPhone 6, which might be dismissed as “minor” by certain critics. However, that doesn’t mean Apple isn’t working on the next big thing, and an important Apple supplier has confirmed it’s on track with its work on one of the next-gen breakthrough innovations for mobile devices.

One of the most nerve-wracking parts of a flight for many people is takeoff.

My issue with Kelly’s piece was that the possible scenarios he outlined — such as Microsoft giving away Windows 10 and then charging money to continue using it after two years — were completely outlandish because they would be commercial suicide on Microsoft’s part. Microsoft has done plenty of tone deaf things over the years but I’ve never known them to go out of their way to drive customers to rivals (although they certainly came close with their disastrous opening pitch for the Xbox One).
