📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 24, 2026 After thinking about it some more, we're now 100% convinced Apple released their Sales Coach app ten years too late ! As a reminder, they released it yesterday. Consider this, if they had released it ten years ago, AND if it had properly covered "Burst Photo Camera Apps," it could have cover'd-up serious deficiencies in Apple's App Store. And, importantly, if that had happened, Apple may NOT have left anywhere close to $113B+ USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years. As a reminder, the 2016 iPhone 7+ was Apple's first true High-Perf iPhone. At least from the perspective of High-Perf Burst Photo Camera Apps.

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 24, 2026 We've been Asked & have Agreed, to write up a proposal regarding our E90 M3 Lite & N52B30 Alusil cylinder wall "refurbishing" service. As a reminder, (we believe) the service alone represents an UN-tap'd Billion Dollar Plus opportunity. And that we are one of the very companies on the planet that could pull it off. Also, for clarity, while the service could eventually apply to every engine block from BMW, Porsche, & Audi with Alusil cylinder walls, the E90 M3 Lite is restricted to 2006-2008 E90 sedans. That's because BMW pivoted their E90 sedans away from their Highly-Prized Hydraulic-assist Power Steering starting with the 2009 model year. That was, in our opinion, a significant screw-up on BMW's part. The flipside, the 2006-2008 E90 sedans have significant potential to become Collectors Cars. But that's if and ONLY if the engine block's Alusil cylinder walls are "refurbished". For clarity, it's needed to reduce Oil Consumption. The (low-tension) piston oil control rings ware mostly worn-out by 200K miles. As such, new oil control rings are needed, & should be installed AFTER the Alusil cylinder walls have been "professionally refurbished". Also, for clarity, we've already looked into developing an ML-based Specialty Robot that would automate the Alusil cylinder wall "refurbishing". But, we'd do the first 100 OR so manually.
"Slower to 60, but Faster out the (showroom) door (than EVs)" That's our sales pitch ! (table last updated 9:30 PM, Tues, Jan 6, 2026)

(1) As a reminder, it's Photosets' Long Press Shutter support controlling a User-sized FIFO Buffer that's the starting point of it ALL. (2) Photosets crafts 10-bit Videos simply based-upon what's stored in the app. (3) up-to "60" scenes per 8-bit Video. Also, for the record, from our perspective, nothing Technical prevents v25.411+ from becoming the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App. -----

(1) Capture, plus various camera controls. (2) Currently ONLY capture, but we're now working on adding support for everything, & more, that Apple supports with their Final Cut Camera app. (3) ONLY if the Master is an iPad and its Camera is participating in the MVC session. (4) via our companion macOS app for Photosets, Photosets TV/Studio. (5) As you may OR may NOT know, Photosets includes an integrated Short-Form, 60-Scene 8-bit 420 Video Maker. And it includes Rock Solid A/V synch support for the optional concurrently captured Audio data. You can run the Video Maker on an iPhone OR iPad. In the past, we had allowed Photosets' 8-bit 420 60-scene Video Maker to also run on a Mac. And for that case, End Users needed our Photosets TV/Studio macOS app with its custom App Group-based Content Sharing support, to pass photo sets IN & get Videos OUT (of the Mac app). -----
