&gt;<i>While much of the press gushed ecstatically over every minor update, at The Memo we questioned the company’s future.</i><p>How original. Only the 10.000th press article to do so since 1999. Clearly Apple is doomed.<p>&gt;<i>Watch customers are selling up in their thousands. Take a look on eBay and count the number for sale. This is not normal behaviour for a new product from the world’s most valuable company.</i><p>Yeah, &quot;numbers of sale on eBay&quot; sounds a very scientific metric. Probably he&#x27;s too young or uniformed to remember that iPod and iPhone have been (and are) HUGE sellers in eBay (new models included):<p>Also nevermind that:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;appleinsider.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;15&#x2F;07&#x2F;20&#x2F;at-97-apple-watch-customer-satisfaction-outpaces-original-iphone-ipad---report" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;appleinsider.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;15&#x2F;07&#x2F;20&#x2F;at-97-apple-watch-...</a><p>Then they complain how Adobe showed retouching a woman&#x27;s picture on stage with their app and the new Stylus, saying, &quot;You know, maybe that would be seen as the embodiment of all that’s wrong with Silicon Valley?&quot;.<p>Do the people on The Memo know that retouching model photographs happens in tons of magazines millions of women love like Vogue, Cosmopolitan, etc? Or that it also happens for male models in magazines like GQ, Men&#x27;s Health etc?<p>&gt;<i>The patronising positioning of women continued. The next woman on stage was from online retailer GILT, America’s answer to Net a Porter, showing off a new app for the TV. As many noted on the night, her elevator pitch was carefully slotted between men talking about manly pursuits like sports and computer games, because it appears that in Apple’s world, women are best left talking about shopping.</i><p>That&#x27;s a new kind of BS spin, where you&#x27;re damned even when you do show a woman on stage, because she&#x27;s &quot;no true scotsch-woman&quot;. She should have been a game designer or a sports. But not bad sports, like Beach Volley, because then it would be sexism again.<p>They forgot to tell us what women do in Amazon&#x27;s and Netflix&#x27;s world, btw.<p>&gt;<i>Except as we reported days before, Apple had been pipped to the post by a Chinese challenger, as most of these ‘exciting’ new innovations are already found in Huawei’s Mate S, a device that costs a mere fraction of the new iPhone.</i><p>Ughhh, the age old &quot;competitor product has more features and is cheaper&quot; (never mind execution, coherence, build quality, ecosystem, etc).
