A week in a nutshell
Apple Watch coming soon they get to the other seven countries, unfortunately the Czech Republic will not be among them and we are speculating why. Preparations for the conference are in full swing WWDC, from whose program Apple allegedly had at the last minute strike out the introduction of the new Apple TV. But the Californian company will certainly remind her of HomeKit - the first devices that will support it, namely is heading on the market.
It is very likely that the renewed Beats music application, which Apple is working on, will also be presented during the conference gain for example, Drake and other artists. It should be called Apple Music.
While Apple continues in the original campaign Taken with iPhone, to which videos have now been added, Samsung again weigh in to iPhone in new Galaxy S6 Edge ads. Tim Cook in Washington fenced against collecting data from customers. Apple is said to be planning alter subscription tax policy and thanks to Skylake could from Macbook remove dedicated graphics.
How does Apple decide where the Apple store will be? Has anyone ever talked about it, or is it "secret"?
it must be very difficult to write news the day before WWDC :))
