Blade Runner runnin' to jail on lesser charge

Oscar Pistorius has been found guilty not of murder, but of culpable homicide. However, there's more to tonight's post because customers may have to wait three to four weeks to get their hands on Apple Inc's iPhone 6 Plus, after a record number of orders for the company's latest smartphones strained available supply. The new iPhone 6 goes on sale this coming Friday in the United States but the company began taking online orders on Thursday. While the larger 5.5-inch "Plus" models now display a wait time of up to a month, the 4.7-inch version remains available for delivery on Sept. 19, Apple's website showed. Verizon Wireless, AT&T, and Sprint all showed shipment delays of up to six weeks on their respective websites. Apple said the pace of orders has so far outstripped any of its previous iPhones. I'm not surprised at this. Of course Apple will release a much better phone each year, especially now that Steve Jobs and his one-size-fits-all approach are no longer with us. And when they release next year's model, it will be huge. So don't settle for Android.
