Siyaqhubeka nezindaba mayelana nezindaba iziphathimandla ezimelene nokwethenjwa zase-United States of America ezizibuza inkampani yaseCupertino. Uma emizuzwaneni embalwa edlule sikumangazile ngesitatimende sokuthi "i-Apple itshale izigidigidi zamaRandi ekuthuthukiseni uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-Maps", mhlawumbe lesi esizokhuluma ngaso manje sizojabulisa ukusho okuncane... awukaze ucabange ukuthi ukulungisa e-SAT esemthethweni yakwa-Apple mhlawumbe kubiza kakhulu? Qaphela, i-Apple ithi ayitholi nzuzo yezezimali ngokulungiswa, ingahle ilahlekelwe yimali ngazo.
Umzimba onekhono wathumela i-Apple incwadi ngoSepthemba odlule kanye nempendulo futhi isilungisiwe. Phakathi kwemibuzo abebebuza ngayo izinqubomgomo zabo zembuyiselo kanye nengqikithi ye- izinzuzo insizakalo yezobuchwepheshe ebanikeze zona kusukela ngo-2009, futhi lokhu kube yimpendulo:
Izindleko ezitholwe ngokulungiswa kwemikhiqizo yethu zidlule inzuzo eyenziwe ukulungiswa, obekulokhu kwenzeka kusukela ngo-2009.
Masingakhohlwa ukuthi i-Apple ishaja imali engaphansi kwama-euro angama-361,10 ngokulungiswa kwesikrini esiphukile ku-iPhone 11 Pro Max (futhi nakwi-iPhone XS Max efanayo), akukho okunye futhi akukho okuncane. Futhi lokho uma singakhulumi ngengilazi yangemuva, ukulungiswa kwayo okungacatshangwa ngokuqondile yinkampani yeCupertino futhi bakunikeza indawo ephelele yama-euro angama-500/600.
Kuyiqiniso ukuthi i-Apple inikela ngezinsizakalo ezingcono kakhulu zobuchwepheshe engake ngazithola, yimikhiqizo embalwa ekunikeza izixazululo zewaranti esikhathini esingaphansi kwesigamu sehora, futhi uma bengakwazi ukuyixazulula ngesikhathi okuvunyelwene ngaso, bavame ukukunikeza "okwenziwe kabusha" ukuze ukwazi ukuhamba ekhaya nomkhiqizo ofanayo owawufakile. Ngiyaqonda ukuthi yonke le nto esezingeni eliphezulu nalaba bachwepheshe ibiza imali enkulu kodwa… kakhulu?
