::Scott in Iowa wrote about trying to exchange his Note 7 at a Verizon store. He was told he could exchange it for a blue model but that silver and black versions were unavailable because they "had to be placed in ”quarantine.” He called Samsung and Verizon and the only more information he got was that silver and black versions might be available October 10.<br /><br />It's hard to say what that means exactly but my best guess is that Note 7s are caught up in the Hanjin shipping bankruptcy which is also affecting iPhone 7 shipments. Hat tip to BigJim in our audience who's been keeping all os us up to speed on this by email and Slack comments.

::If Apple wants to make major in roads into large business/enterprise sales they are going to have to come up with a better support model for business. They must realize bringing 50 ipads to the genius bar is not a viable option for most businesses. They need to understand they have a part in troubleshooting why an Apple laptop is transferring files slow to a Windows file server. Enterprise will never be their homogeneous walled garden solution they have on the consumer side.

::Regarding Samsung's "exploding washing machines," as a sales associate with 15 years experience at a local independent appliance store that has been in business for over 40 years, I can tell you, this issue can and has happened with other manufacturers. You are absolutely right that Samsung is getting killed because of the recent issues with the phones.<br /><br />All these machines have sensors to detect an out of balance situation and stop the machine to make the consumer re-balance the load. Its a safety vs. convenience issue. Make the threshold too low and the consumer is continually having to re-balance. Don't make it sensitive enough and this type of problem could happen. Samsung seems to have missed the mark leaning more toward customer happiness than safety. This problem could probably be fixed with a firmware update to lower the shut down threshold. Too late for that now. Customers will demand a hardware engineering fix at this point.<br /><br />As always, proud to be a Co-Executive Producer...<br /><br />PS: I still watch the show on that Samsung refrigerator from time to time. I hope those don't start exploding!
