Ha, yes. I have a Galaxy A7 lite that is my TV. Much cheaper and has a 500GB SD Card in it as well.

Was I the only stunned by the quality of the video ad? It’s really advert at its peak, to the point yet artistic.

When the M1 ipad came out I said I'd upgrade from whatever my model year 2020 ipad is once I could run a Linux VM on it without rooting it.
Still waiting.

Why did you get an iPad if you wanted to run a Linux VM? Wouldn't a Macbook Air have been a better choice?

I bought an iPad for the same reason ~everyone does, for media consumption. But if I could use the hardware to do more interesting things then I'd be willing to spend more on a more powerful model.

Because they like the hardware? The better question is why Apple pretends these devices can't run VMs.

If it can be used for inference, who cares right? Just have claude vibe code some objective-C or run the Enclave app.

As always, I _wish_ I had a use case for an iPad. Seem like such powerful machines hindered by where they live in the serious-computing space. The iPadOS being much more restrictive doesn't help either.
I wish they could repurpose macOS to touch screens... Oh well.

Same here. I have tried my dangedest to want to need an iPad. Once the new wears off, I just cannot find a use for them.

I wonder how well local inference would work on these.

Any chances of getting a new Apple TV 4k this week in time for F1 launch on AppleTV+?

Sure, there’s a chance. Don’t know why you’re asking, though, because those that know aren’t talking and those that are talking…
