“Apple will only sell 100,000 of their headsets in the first year” Really?

News Ewan -
BGR reports a TrendForce estimate that Apple will sell 100k units of their new headset when released and says “but that’s still a big win”. I disagree on the figure. I’ve no idea how the 100k estimate was arrived at, but I think this would dramatically underestimate the genuine “fan boy” curiosity. Not to mention developer interest. If the device is anywhere near decent...

Airalo: The easy way to roam globally with a data eSIM

News Ewan -
Shortly before I began my FinTech & Banking Tour around the GCC, I popped into the Apple AppStore and searched ‘eSim’. I wondered if someone had easily sorted the roaming-in-a-random-country problem and made it stupid-simple to purchase and install an eSIM for a particular geography. Turns out, someone has. I’m sure there are other options out there, but the one I found in the App Store is Airalo, and it’s simply fantastic. I have used many eSIM services across the years, most of which generally required you to perform an array of digital gymnastics because of the deployment method. That is, after you’d paid, the website would then show...
