Apple
has plans to push its services revenue into hyper growth — but it won't

probably, the most valuable product in the world, and should continue

Reports about the next iPhone
have centered around features like a flexible organic LED screen,
wireless charging and the bigger batteries allowed by the lack of a
3.5-millimeter headphone jack, Sculley said. In part, that's because
those features allow batteries to last longer for draining activities,
like watching movies from the cloud, Sculley said.
