what's good Apple biters brian Tong hear back from CES now I got to talk to Shaq and Kenny and Charles what a war he's got a great team but it's a bad haircut and San Francisco and even try out VR porn which for the record was rated pg-13 so let's get to the latest an apple still doesn't have it streaming TV service set up for the Apple TV but it's shown interest in buying time warner's assets after their CEO told investors he would entertain a sale of the media company according to the New York Post now time water isn't even up for sale yet but maybe Apple could work their magic with the over 200 billion dollars of cash they're sitting on Time Warner's assets include networks like HBO TNT TBS cartoon network CNN and more and that in itself along with its disney-abc ties could help lay down a foundation for the service but up to this point talks with Apple and the networks have been put on hold with no TV service in sight apple also released a new batch of beta software updates across the board recently normally these updates aren't that big of a deal but iOS 9.3 brings new major features like night shift that uses your idevices clock and geolocation to shift the colors on your display to the warmer end of the spectrum it gets rid of that bright blue light exposure that can make it harder to sleep in you all know what I'm talking about when you're staying up late at night playing on your iPad doing god knows what you can keep your notes locked down with a password or a fingerprint now the news app has become more personalized to your taste if you even use it and the health app now displays activity for your health metrics Plus Apple apps like weather and settings and more get 3d touch capability for better shortcuts now they're only previewing it for iOS 9.3 in education but multiple users are finally coming to iOS after being three or four years too late now we have to imagine this is coming to regular users as well it really should be a no-brainer now the TV OS 9.2 beta gets features that should have come out when it launched the biggest one the podcast app has finally returned it's technically in beta is doesn't have Siri functionality but get this the current app will not play any video podcasts at the moment are you kidding me that's still a bad apple bluetooth keyboard support is finally here the app switcher looks more like what we've seen in iOS 9 and you can now group apps into folders in the home screen similar to what you can do on iOS also watch OS 2.2 beta now allows a single iphone to pair to multiple watches and that has to be great for that iphone's battery life but do not fear you can always slap on there amazingly horrible-looking battery case on it now I can't give that thing enough bad apples and trust me it looks even worse in person alright a new report from the commercial times in Taiwan claims an early trial production run of the Apple watch 2 is expected to start as soon as the end of January it will be manufactured by quanta who is also responsible for the original Apple watch rumors for the new watch include a thinner body the FaceTime camera and a Wi-Fi chip for more independence from the iphone but still no GPS now look I've actually gone back to my regular watch until the Apple watch just does more also reports that apple will be getting rid of the 3.5 millimeter headphone jack on the next iPhone aren't going away and it looks more and more like it will happen 9to5 mac reports apple is prototyping a new set of bluetooth headphones with a chance of launching them alongside the new iphone 7 the earphones are said to be completely wireless and similar in concept to the motorola hint or braggy dash headphones apple's rumored wireless earbuds are expected to include a noise cancelling microphone system that will also enable phone calls an Siri without their current inline mic and remote system it will be considered a premium alternative and will include a carrying case that doubles as a rechargeable battery for the headphones in fact Apple already registered the trademark for air pods three months ago which is what the new earbuds might be called crushing my dreams of ever having apple earbuds that might look something like this see I was really hoping they'd make it happen all right now I was in Las Vegas for cnet's annual Trek to CES but I didn't come away empty-handed from there so here's one of the gadgets that was worth checking out at the show especially for macbook users may not be the biggest product here at CES but this is really one of the hottest this is Griffin's break safe magnetic USBC power cable try saying that five times fast now what makes it special right if you have something like one of the new macbooks that's only USB see you have a Chromebook pixel you want that magsafe experience this cable gives it to you you plug in 1 into the USB and then if you have any pressure you might trip over your cable it pops right off and reconnects with magnets and prongs this is going to be available sometime in April for the price of 39 99 and when you think of all the USBC compatible products that we're expecting to see moving forward this is going to be a big thing and it's here at CES 2016 alright that's going to do it for this week's show you can email us at the Apple by to cnet com or tweet me a brian Tong with your final nostra Tongass questions for next week's show thanks for watching we'll catch you all next time for another bite of the Apple
