Extreme performance is not essential. Drop in an M4 Max from a MacBookPro and Apple would have a computer that I consider purchasing if the price were reasonable.John M. (email)The iPad mini is perfect, even with its imperfectionsEarlier this month, David wrote about how the iPad mini is a really, really good tablet. Maybe its underappreciated. Roman reviewed the new iPad mini and like it, too.X/grostadOn Facebook, Michael Trapp said:I love my iPad Mini as my in-car navigation and everything else.. No need for limited CarPlay when I have the FULL IOS available and the screen is pretty much the same size or bigger (except for some Tesla) than most OEM screens. And I can take itfrom car2car and with me when I park and get out (since it fits in my docker pant pockets).Michael Trapp (Facebook)New Magic Mouse?Bloombergs Mark Gurman (subscription required) reports that Apple is working on a new redesigned Magic Mouse for the modern era. It likely wont be ready within the next 12 to 18 months. Dont fix it. Theres something very sensual about flipping my mouse and plugging that cable right in.

And then sell you a wireless charging mousepad. (@chrissaiyan.bsky.social) 2024-12-15T20:11:31.459ZTo be honest, if I were Apple, Id redesign this, but keep the usb-c port on the bottom because people get irrationally upset about something that needs to be used for 10 minutes every 4 months. You dont use the mouse 24/7!
