Decoding "Let Us Loop You In"
Mac Daily News ^ | March 14, 2015

Posted on 03/14/2016 1:09:10 PM PDT by Swordmaker

Apple’s March 21st special event invitation (below) features the message: “Let us loop you in.”

What could this cryptic sentence mean?

Well, Apple does offer the stainless steel (silver) Milanese Loop for Apple Watch and there are rumblings of a new black Milanese Loop coming at the event, but it that really enough to warrant being the marquee on the special event’s invitation?

What if the phrase refers to Apple Smart Bands? Or “Smart Loops?” Think Apple Watch bands loops that add extra functionality (GPS, for just one example) to the Apple Watch.

Wouldn’t such a Smart Loop or a line of Smart Loops help Apple “loop in” new Apple Watch customers?

What do you think Apple’s invitation means?

It's only a week away, so we are in the midst of the customary Apple FUD season, but with the iPhone v. FBI brouhaha, it's not as obvious as usual.

You might want to have the AM fix up that headline.

Apple has sent out its invitations to next week's Apple product announcement event titled "Let Us Loop You In". . . Anyone got any ideas what that could mean? Normally, that would mean we would be hot and heavy in the midst of Apple FUD Season, but with the Apple vs. FBI/DOJ set-to over the terrorists' iPhone, that is taking the place of the normal FUD season attacks on Apple, any fake hand-wringing would be lost in the noise. — PING!

I'm guessing lasso and hogtie, but I could be taking it too literally.

Uups. . . The damn auto-correcting did it. Sometimes you don't see it until it does it. Damn. Thanks.

It is an invitation to sadomasochistic sex.

When they say, “Let up loop you in,” resist we much.

it’s a wrist loop that’s compatible with the Watch; it’s a sort of leash for the new 4” iPhone, so one doesn’t drop it or lose it, and it fastens to the phone with a brand new proprietary connector of some sort. ;’)

But seriously folks... I think the reference is to Apple’s dandy new HQ, the big sphincter-shaped gargantuan structure, which is indeed a circle or loop if you will — IOW, it’ll be the metaphor, but not really have much to do with the new product intros, which appear to be a little ho-hum.

There’s a 9.7” tablet; 4” iPhone (which will probably have a killer low price, to finish off a number of market competitors — “when the other guy is treading water, put a live hose in his mouth”); either two or three refreshed MacBook Pro models.

Hilariously, there’s also a rumor about an Apple ring, literally a smart ring one wears on one’s finger to communicate with Siri, who is still virtual-living in your phone. That *would* fit the loop idea.

If you're referring to yourself, you would be correct and wrong, depending on the context..

If I were referring to you, then it would be eubonics.

If I were talking about myself then it would be mebonics.......

I know, ghetto trash is difficult to understand

Don’t you mean Siri’s successor, Sauron?

Siri’s last name is Rabet, a lot of people don’t know that.

They might be referring to the campus, One Infinite Loop.
