iOS 14, a little earlier than expected. Plus, some paper shredders...


 Usually, we get major releases of iOS on the same day as the new iPhone, but this time we're getting the software well in advance of the hardware.

The Return of the Flip Phone. Plus, Some Cyber Security Tips...

  Bendable, foldable screens have been around for a little while now, and the technology has improved to the point where we are starting to see them put to good use. The best application I have seen is in the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip -  https://www.cnet.com/news/samsung-galaxy-z-flip-review-3-months-later-even-im-surprised-by-how-much-i-still-love-this-phone/ . I love the idea of having a foldable smartphone similar to the old flip phones from pre-iPhone days, and you can buy this phone now, for quite a hefty price, if you need to live right on the edge of technology, but I think I'll wait until the technology is perfected...Or when Apple gets around to designing their version.. Microsoft takes a different approach to foldable phones with their brand new Surface Duo. It's too big for my tastes but still a beautiful device.  https://www.theverge.com/2020/8/12/21364633/microsoft-surface-duo-release-date-pricing-features-specs --------------------------------    Excel...
