Don’t we have or likely to have in future Bluetooth removable media? Thanks!

If you allow people to introduce media on an SD card then the OS must have access to the folders or maybe it would be more accurate to say that Apple would have to give users access to what is on the SD card and that would possibly defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform. Any SD card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of latency in how fast things get loaded and I think this all goes against what Apple wants to achieve. I think actually that even some high-end Android phones are moving away from that, but I might be wrong, just something I heard. Does the Google Pixel for example have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion slot on an iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but having it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there hardly is any space left as is and of course making a highly waterproof or water resistant device would probably be much more difficult if the device had an SD card slot. Personally I have no problem with Apple offering internal memory, I totally agree that nowadays 16 Gb doesn’t get you far, but I wonder how many people still buy 16 Gb devices if they can get a 64 Gb device (4 times the space) for $100 more.

Granted, the 300 dollar price tag is nice, but not with the memory it’s offering. I think the 32 and 16 models of any device is outdated, unless it’s got an expansion slot for an SD card. Frankly, I’m completely surprised that Apple hasn’t embraced this concept, since it would enable them to lower the amount of ROM memory on the device, and allow people to expand according to their budget. Alas, it would seem that Apple is destined not to ever get the message.

If they actually introduce a substantial a new iPad Pro, I would suppose they would do so with a bit more fanfare. But these upgrades are no big deal.

I just heard on the Apple Byte Podcast that Digitimes said there would be an event in April where a new 10.5 inch iPad Pro would be introduced, hard to believe they would just do this without much fanfare, if I remember correctly they did a bit more last yer around the iPhone SE..

Apple unveiled a new 9.7-inch iPad with a brighter Retina display starting at $329, and a special edition red-aluminum finish iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, part of the company’s decade-long partnership with (RED), which contributes to the Global Fund to fight HIV and AIDS. “Since we began working with (RED) 10 years ago, our customers have made a significant impact in fighting the spread of AIDS through the purchase of our products, from the original iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition all the way to today’s lineup of Beats products and accessories for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch,” Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said in a <wlmailhtml://news/terminal/ON6020MEQTXJ> statement Tuesday. Apple is the world’s largest corporate donor to the Global Fund, contributing more than $130 million, the company said. Apple is expected to reveal a significant upgrade to the iPhone later this year. Cupertino, California-based Apple last year unveiled a new iPhone which reignited sales growth in the Christmas quarter after a year of declines. Those falling sales came even as Apple introduced a cheaper handset in March in an effort to spur growth in emerging markets. The only sales growth in the 2016 fiscal year came from the services business, which includes Apple Music and the App Store, and the other products category. Apple shares rose less than one percent to $142.55 at 10:24 a.m. in New York. Earlier they hit a new intraday high of $142.80. Image removed by sender. The new iPad starts at $329 for 32GB with Wi-Fi and $459 for 32GB Wi-Fi plus cellular. It will be available to order starting March 24 in the U.S. and more than 20 other countries and regions. The iPhone (RED) models will be available in 128GB and 256GB models starting at $749 from March 24. Apple also announced new storage capacity for the iPhone SE. That 4-inch display model will now be available in 32GB and 128GB models, doubling the current capacity and replacing the previous models. Other product launches Tuesday include a new app called <http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2017/03/21Apple-Introduces-Clips-The-Fun-New-Way-to-Create-Expressive-Videos-on-iOS.html> Clips, that helps people combine video clips, photos and music that can be shared through social media and messages. Apple also said its Swift Playgrounds iPad app, which helps students learn to code, is available in five additional languages: Japanese, French, German, Spanish and simplified Chinese.
