Of iPads and home buttons
iPad number 2 was suffering from inconsistent home button functionality; I thought I had it nailed down to a certain app, but once the home button started failing with Arden’s software installed (none of which is enterprise anything), I knew it wasn’t as I suspected. Apple replaced it with a refurb, which works fine; I really would like to know what was wrong with it, though. Probably a dodgy trace that broke connectivity when the stars aligned. Thank goodness the Apple store in Bellevue Square is so close by.
A bad day at the range, part the second
I just wanted to point out Barron’s post (pictures, video) and Joe’s post. I was wrong about more lift, but I have a pretty solid idea why: the ground was saturated with water, so putting more water on the ground didn’t help.
