Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - Morgan Stanley Predicts Apple Could Sell Up to 60 Million iWatches in Its First Year
Morgan Stanley has issued a new investor note increasing Apple’s price target to $110. If Apple reaches $110 it would be an all-time high for shares of the company.
Analyst Katy Huberty also notes that Apple’s iWatch will perform very well due to the ‘halo effect’ which initially helped drive iPod customers to the Mac platform. She also says that current smart watch sales should not be used as a predictor for how a product from Apple might fare; rather, investors should look at how Apple successfully managed to sell new product categories to existing customers in the past.
She sees a range of 30 million to 60 million “iWatch” units being sold in the first 12 months of availability. Her models assume an average selling price of $300 and gross margins between 40 percent and 50 percent. She noted that historically, investors have underestimated sales of new Apple product categories based on the limited success of established products. For example, investors originally compared the iPod to the Sony Walkman, the iPhone to BlackBerry, and the iPad to netbooks, she said.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - Woman Tragically Killed By Subway Train After Fumbling With iPad and Falling Onto the Tracks
A woman was tragically killed by a subway train at Union Square on Saturday after fumbling to catch a dropped iPad and falling on the tracks, reports the New York Post.
Aracelis Ayuso, 21, was waiting for a Brooklyn-bound No. 4 train when she lost her grip on the tablet around 3:30 p.m., cops said. When the East Harlem resident tried to catch the device, she apparently lost her footing, causing her to tumble forward and land on the tracks just as the train was coming.
The conductor was able to spot Ayuso but was unable to stop the train in time. Police originally believed that Ayuso may have been intoxicated; however, on Sunday they said that there were no obvious signs she’d been drinking. A toxicology report is still pending.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - Production Issues Could Delay 5.5-Inch iPhone 6 Until Late 2014 or Even 2015
Apple is facing production issues with the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 which could delay the device until late 2014 or even 2015, reports KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
We think the 5.5-inch model will also have issues with the yield rate of in-cell touch panel and color unevenness of metal casing. Indeed, these problems will likely be even more complicated with a larger size. In addition, from a technical perspective, we don’t expect sapphire cover, used for the first time on the 5.5-inch model, will easily pass the drop test near term.
We are conservative about 5.5-inch iPhone launching by end-2014. Even if the product is launched in 2014, it is likely to take place after mid-4Q14, which is later than the September-October of consensus, with shipments being lower than consensus of 15- 20mn units.

Jay Freeman, the developer of Cydia, has posted a lengthy article explaining the background behind Cydia, his motivations to work on the project, and how he looks at competition. The post follows the announcement of the new iMods installer app.
So, some people are going to hate me for this post, and I’ve said some of this before, but I really want to express it in more detail. I’ve been wanting to write something like this for a long time, and recently I think I’ve been in a mindset where I need to think through some of these thoughts anyway, so “here goes nothing”.
Suarik’s post is an extensive one, addressing topics such as: Cydia as a Business, Community Efforts, Abnormal Motivation, My Involvement, Cydia as a Job, The Bitter Truths, Other’s Opportunity, My Motivations, Money Does Not Motivate Me, Competition Does Not Motivate Me, Why Would I Bother?, The Cult of Competition, Picking Fights Loses People, Valuing Repositories, Earning Trust, Not Even Effective, and Competing with Cydia.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - New Apple iBeacon Device Hits the FCC
Apple has received a grant of equipment authorization from the FCC for a new Apple iBeacon device. The FCC application was dated July 2, 2014 and approved July 4,2014.
Introduced in iOS 7, iBeacon is a technology that enables new location awareness possibilities for apps. Using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), a device with iBeacon technology can be used to establish a region around an object. This allows an iOS device to determine when it has entered or left the region, along with an estimation of proximity to a beacon. Currently, even Apple is using third party Bluetooth beacons in its retail stores; however, it appears as though it has finally developed its own beacon.
The FCC filing reveals a circular device about 5.46″ in diameter. It features a USB port and an ON/OFF switch. The official product number of the iBeacon is A1573.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - E-LABEL Act Aims to Remove Unsightly FCC Labels From Phones, Other Electronics
U.S. Senators Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) and Jay Rockefeller (D-W.V.) have introduced bipartisan legislation to modernize federal regulations for electronic devices. The E-LABEL Act would ease certain regulatory requirements on manufacturers of products such as phones, computers, and other electronics, by giving them the option to meet the physical label requirement digitally.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) currently requires most device manufacturers to etch or otherwise permanently place regulatory information and symbols on the exterior of approved products. As electronic devices in the marketplace become smaller, physical label requirements may become increasingly difficult to meet and more costly for manufacturers. The e-label option promises to lower costs for both producers and consumers.
“As manufacturers continue to produce groundbreaking technologies, it only makes sense that federal labeling requirements for these products are updated to further promote innovation and create new opportunities in the digital age,” said Fischer. “I’m pleased to work with Chairman Rockefeller to introduce the E-LABEL Act, which increases options and lowers costs for manufacturers while also making regulatory information more easily accessible to consumers. This bipartisan measure will provide relief for job creators, benefit consumers, and promote modern regulations that better suit a 21st century marketplace.”

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - Colorful iWatch Concept With Wireless Charging Base [Video]
Check out this new iWatch concept from SET Solution that features interchangeable bands in a variety of colors and a box that is also a wireless charging base.
We’ve thought that everyone should customize the iWatch: color is the keyword! Our iWatch has the possibility to change the wristlet, so you can choose the one with your favorite color! And obviously, there are tons of cool and stylish colors!
We also designed a box for our iWatch concept: the particularity of it is that it is also a wireless charging base! How does it work? Inductive charging (also known as “wireless charging”) uses an electromagnetic field to transfer energy between two objects. When the iWatch is placed on his PowerCase, a “handshake” happens between the charging surface and the device, and the energy is transferred wirelessly to the iWatch.
