"I wear glasses because I have to. I don't know a lot of people who wear them because they don't have to," he said. "I think the wrist is interesting. The wrist is natural."Apple is widely considered to be developing a "smartwatch," with analysts speculating that it could have a 1.5- to 2-inch display, with technology similar to the iPod Nano, on sale in 2014. He also acknowledged the company's stock price, which has fallen 21 percent over the past year. "It's been frustrating for investors and all of us," Cook said.

Rumour has it that later this year Apple will launch a wrist watch that will not only tell you the time but will allow you to monitor yourself and control other devices. The watch will understand where you are, what you have eaten, how many calories you have burnt, how well you have slept etc. The reason I believe the iWatch (or the smart watch idea in general) will change the world is because it will allow all of us to collect and analyse data on both a personal and global level. Take health as an example. These intelligent wrist watches will permit monitoring of an individual's heart rate, calorie intake, activity levels, quality of sleep and more.重要內容

Amazon would move into closer competition with Apple Inc. (AAPL), which sells its own set-top box called Apple TV. The device would also compete with products from Roku Inc. and Boxee Inc., as well as gaming consoles from Microsoft Corp. and Sony Corp. that deliver video programming. The project is being run by Malachy Moynihan, a former vice president at Cisco Systems Inc. who worked on the networking giant’s various consumer video initiatives. In the late 1980s and 1990s, Moynihan spent nine years at Apple.重要內容“It would certainly make some sense,” said Jason Krikorian, a general partner at venture-capital firm DCM, and the former co-founder of Sling Media, who does not have knowledge of Amazon’s plans. “They have a ton of content, an existing billing relationship with millions of users.”

All of those questions, messages, and stern commands that people have been whispering to Siri are stored on Apple servers for up to two years, Wired can now report. — Yesterday, we raised concerns about some fuzzy disclosures in Siri's privacy policy.
Here’s what happens. Whenever you speak into Apple’s voice activated personal digital assistant, it ships it off to Apple’s data farm for analysis. Apple generates a random numbers to represent the user and it associates the voice files with that number. This number — not your Apple user ID or email address — represents you as far as Siri’s back-end voice analysis system is concerned.原來Siri會儲存我們的說話整整兩年，雖然不是直接跟Apple ID掛勾，而是跟一組隨機產生的號碼掛勾。但一想到，原來自己平時無聊跟Siri說的話，竟然會被一直儲存達兩年之久，你下次跟Siri說話的時候，會否提自己小心一點呢？
