Do you have any thoughts on the auto project? Another Apple success in the making or something else?

I would be extremely surprised if Apple were designing a car. I think it would kill their Apple CarPlay business to compete with the forty car makers who've signed up to install CarPlay in upcoming models of their cars. I think Apple is designing SOFTWARE for automakers, not their own cars. . . nor will Apple buy Tesla for the same reason. They don't want to be competing with their customers for a marginal profit business. Tesla has yet to sell a Billion dollars worth of cars! Apple CarPlay will easily be a $20 billion component of Apple's product mix in five years.
