    Our Tech Deadlines
    • Federico
      • Absent significant improvements in iPadOS 19, Federico will add a Mac to his setup.
      • Unless ChatGPT starts integrating more tightly with apps, Federico will cancel his subscription.
      • Absent new exclusives, Federico will sell his PS5.
      • John
        • Barring substantial iPadOS improvements, John plans to experiment with Android tablets.
        • If Apple’s cellular modems extend the battery life of the iPhone 17 Pro phones, John may drop out of Plus Club.
        • If Apple supports third-party plugins for Final Cut Pro for iPad, John will consider moving more of his video editing to the iPad.
