    I decided to get the 6, not the Plus. The 6 Plus makes no sense to me.

    I really wanted the 6 only, but I'm a fan of getting the top of the line. It's a stupid way of thinking, but I can't stop being stupid

    This could be even more profitable than iTunes if this sticks

    Yeah it's funny how Samsung tries so hard to discount apple. It reminds me when apple did this years ago with PC.

    http://iphone.appleinsider.com/arti...apples-iphone-6-plus-is-galaxy-note-imitation

    This is the best part of the article:

    And I loved Apple's response:

    That's what makes apple so special. They don't release something just to release it. They make sure they are the best at what that design is in the market

    I may have read it wrong, but the article said the banks agreed to let apple have a chunk of their pie. Did I read it wrong?

    First the banks told us ATMs would save them money by requiring less interaction with tellers. Then later they add a $3 fee to take out $20. That's 13%.

    But yeah, the banks don't do that sort of thing so apple is in good shape.

    Okay I get it. Whatever apple and the banks agreed on doesn't mean the banks won't add to that? I would think apple, how they convinced the record industry to take cuts, would use that same influence to convince these banks.

    Maybe I'm hoping too much

    We'll see. Apple Pay goes bye bye if the banks stop cooperating. Who has the leverage?
