> Unless I'm missing a Google Siri beater, you're talking about Google's voice search in its iOS app. It's much faster than Siri, but it's also much less sophisticated. I asked this very question on Quora recently[1]. I believe he's tal

I don't know how these acquisitions are relevant at all given that all dissections of A-series chips revealed reference ARM Cortex designs underneath. At best Apple design packaging of these chips, but that's 1% of work.

I'm sorry you are so brainwashed by Apple marketing. Apple's Ax line is using reference ARM designs, with negligible modifications.

Meanwhile FB Android app is still unusably slow and bug-ridden. It's just not acceptable for someone who wants be perceived as a strong technology company.

That's a really freaking huge "what if". Facebook is not exactly a young company, founded 8 years ago. They've been trying to find a killer business model for many years. I wonder what makes people believe they will find one.

The market perception right now is "Facebook swindled us". It will affect Facebook stock price for quite some time.

Google's revenue growth for the year prior to IPO (2003) was 234%. Facebook's was 88%. Sorry, but Google was a massively better business.
