Apple to stop selling its latest smartwatches after losing patent case to rival that says ‘even the world’s most powerful company must abide by the law’::Sales of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 will be halted on the company’s online store on Dec. 21 and at its physical retail locations beginning on Christmas Eve.
I wasn’t aware that they actually LOST the case, just that it was “disputed”. Wow.
Pulse oximeters retail for about $20, they couldn’t just settle? Offer them back $10 to $15 per watch sold?
Great marketing in the leadup to Xmas. It worked on me, I wanted to get my wife an apple watch for the holiday and when I saw this news I pulled the trigger instantly.
Nice timing, Apple. You dicks.
Apple throwing a tantrum as a holiday FOMO marketing scheme. A new low.
Hey, the system worked.
The cracks have been forming for a while now.
The big megacorps have been infighting. We’ve been seeing the signs of their implosion from miles away.
Now we see even Titans bleed. Nothing can stop the collapse now.
The question is what will emerge from the ashes?
