iPad Pro mini review

It’s huge, bigger than you expect. Just like when I switched to the iPhone 6 Plus, the size becomes normal after a few hours of use. I have yet to get the Keyboard or Pencil yet due to supply constraints. Other than that, it’s fast and the benchmarks tell me it’s faster than my two year old MacBook Pro. I have yet to see this but time will tell. The future for the iPad Pro looks bright, I’m just waiting to see the light.

CurrentC May Not Launch Until 2016…

…according to this re/code article.

 “CurrentC — backed by several dozen big merchants including Walmart, Target, Kohl’s, Dunkin’ Donuts and Exxon — is designed to work on all types of smartphones and let shoppers pay with the app instead of a physical payment card or cash. But while Apple Pay and soon-to-launch services Android Pay and Samsung Pay let users pay using account information from traditional credit cards like Visa, MasterCard and Amex, CurrentC does not.”

Apple Pay is almost at the one-year mark and has been spreading like wildfire.

CurrentC’s option is less secure, harder to setup, and more complicated to use.

This keeps getting pushed back and back, when will they give up?

The Beard Blog Launch

Today I launch the opinion editorial blog entitled “The Beard Blog”.

 

No, it’s not about beards, well kind of – my last name is Beard and I do in fact have a beard, so you be the judge.

 

I like to write about technology, photography, current events, and anything else that’s hip.
