翻开纸质通讯录、顺着名字找到号码，再挨个按下按键，攥着听筒等待漫长的「嘟嘟」声。 一连串动作，是一代人过去式的集体记忆。 但最近，这个动作正在北美的青少年群体快速翻红—— 一台名为 Tin Can （铁罐）的座机，在北美打造了一个小天才式的社交网络，上市短短一年就卖出了数十万台，积压的预购名单一度接近十万人。 目前，官网显示为断货状态，下一批要到 6 月才能发货。 皮尤研究中心（Pew Research Center）的调研报告显示，在美国 2000 多万名 8-10 岁儿童中，只有 29% 在使用自己的智能手机——换言之，还有 70% 的儿童用户拥有潜在的购机需求，而 Tin Can 切中的便是这个千万级用户规模的市场，也是其中最有机会从 iPhone 虎口夺食的产品。 Tin Can 是一台货真价实的座机 别误会，Tin Can 不是什么概念包装的玩具。它真就是一台座机，售价 100 美元。 它由两部分组成：可以挂在墙壁上的底座，另一边则是带有听筒、麦克风和实体数字按键的话筒，由一根螺旋电话线连接。 （ 我竟然需要专门强调一台座机拥有实体按键和螺旋线，真是略显荒诞 🤣 ） 免提扬声器、快捷拨号键以及答录机等必备功能也应有尽有。 Tin Can 的使用方式也很简单——这台座机可以连接 Wi-Fi，但没有任何屏幕。通上电，连上网，同款设备之间互打完全免费，也可以直接拨打 911 等紧急电话报警。 如果需要与外界联系，家长只需每月支付 10 美元订阅费，就能设置专属的接听白名单，彻底杜绝陌生来电，屏蔽网络推销。 Tin Can 甚至想好了如果父母并不生活在一起的场景：两个家中各放一台 Tin Can，共用一个号码。无论孩子去哪边，都不耽误接朋友的电话。 可以说，除了不能接固话线，这就是一台货真价实的座机。 当然，它也和我们国内用户更熟悉的「小天才」，在功能和逻辑上别无二致。 但这一台简单的座机，催生了一种颇有意思的使用习惯—— 为了防止孩子们一边打电话一边满屋子做别的事情， Tin Can 刻意没有内置电池，必须插电使用，将孩子钉在原地，必须专心致志地讲话； 再加上没有屏幕，也没有一键同步的联系人列表，想要找朋友聊天，孩子们必须回归最原始的动作：把同学的号码一笔一画抄写在纸质通讯录上。 Tin Can 首席执行官 Chet Kittleson 表示这也是他的灵感源泉：...

Earnings Call Insights: Align Technology (ALGN) Q1 2026 Management View "We're pleased to report another better-than-expected quarter in Q1" and "Clear Aligner volumes from both the GAAP and non-GAAP operating margins exceeded our outlook," according to "Joseph Hogan (President, CEO & Director)."

"Joseph Hogan (President, CEO & Director)" emphasized DSOs and retail softness: "DSO Clear Aligner volumes grew double-digit across all regions and represented approximately 1/4 of total global volumes," while "the retail channel continued to be mixed, particularly in the United States, where our doctor customers reported less patient traffic."

Governor Powell By Philip Marey, senior US strategist at Rabobank Summary As widely expected, the FOMC remained on hold. Governor Miran dissented again because he wanted a rate cut. However, there were also three dissenters (Hammack, Kashkari and Logan) who wanted to remove the bias toward cutting from the statement. On balance, Powell said that the center of the Committee was moving toward a more neutral place in thinking about cuts versus hikes. Powell announced that this was his last press conference as Chair, but he would stay on as a Governor until he thinks it’s appropriate to leave, because of the legal attacks on the Fed. Our baseline forecast is still two rate cuts this year, one in September and one in December. Once Warsh becomes the new Chair, he will try to convince the Committee to make more than the single cut in their most recent projections. However, given the developments in the Middle East, we think that in the coming months we are more likely to drop a rate cut from our forecast than add one. Introduction As widely expected, the FOMC decided to keep the target range for the federal funds rate unchanged at 3.50-3.75% this month. Governor Miran repeated his dissent, preferring a ¼ percentage point rate cut at this meeting. However, there were also three dissents (by Hammack, Kashkari and Logan) because they “did not support inclusion of an easing bias in the statement at this time.” This easing bias is currently expressed in the statement “ In considering the extent and timing of additional adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate…”. Since the last three adjustments were rate cuts, this sentence would suggest that the FOMC is still biased toward cutting. In its assessment of the economy, the statement replaced “The implications of the developments in the Middle East for the U.S. economy are uncertain” by “Developments in the Middle East are contributing to a high level of uncertainty about the economic outlook”, not a major change...
