Tesla's First Autopilot Fatality, Apple Will "Retire" the 16GB iPhone

Today's Above Avalon stories: 

  • Tesla's First Autopilot Fatality
  • Apple Will "Retire" the 16GB iPhone

We begin today's email by taking a closer look at the first fatality involving Tesla's Autopilot technology. After going over the two types of reactions to the news, we discuss the primary questions raised by the incident and my view of how this situation will play itself out. The email then shifts to news that Apple will no longer position 16GB as the entry-level iPhone storage tier this fall. We go over the strategy behind Apple's storage tier configuration and my thoughts on Apple possibly having a few surprises in store when it comes to storage options across the iPhone lineup.
