Why? They make some awesome stuff in America.

You're on fire.

As it has been correct the iPhone is a British design.

British

Good point!

And of course there's no reason whatsoever to imagine that Apple might have produced a vastly superior solution, in terms of both hardware and software, than HP

According to this article the scanner is at a higher resolution - but still hackable in the same way. iPhone 5s fingerprint sensor 'hacked' within days of launch - Telegraph

Damn straight. I mean, they made a financial crisis that everyone around the world has now!

which surprises me for an American designed product.

Am sure there are a lot of these but made me laugh

Yes, they should pack up their bags and go home. An obvious loser. Make way for the competition.

I'm not sure what other phone tops the quality category so well as well as apple products do, which surprises me for an American designed product.

The share price slid on their latest product announcement as it did last time, it used to rocket.

Would you back Apple right now?

The stock market isn't real life. In the past Apple have announced record profits and had their stock go down, because they weren't as record-breaking as some analyst told everyone they were going to be!

I hold AAPL at a higher price than it is now - I could have made a bundle but missed the peak - but to me this could be a good time to buy.

Got a nexus last week for a third of the price of the cut price noddy iPhone 5c

Oh dear but now I haven't got a fingerprint scanner to help the NSA and GCHQ, life cannot carry on

NOT!

To me, Apple were always for the technically illiterate. Looked nice and shiny, was as good as anything else out there, but twice as dear. I think that now Jobs is in his six storey building the Emperors New Clothes have been busted. They could go down as fast as Blackberry.

Let's face it, they've run out of ideas and the share price reflects this.

Game over, the halo has slipped.

My crappy HP laptop that I bought in an emergency when my gf toasted the last one on holiday has finger print login

It's unreliable and no quicker than typing the password in, unless you normally have a 30 digit password

Yep, it's quite good because until now, blocking a phone has been down to the networks so stolen phones just get sold abroad where they're not blocked. But this way the phone itself is locked, which is how this should work really.
