Dubai, United Arab Emirates.-Thursday, November 2nd 2017 [ AETOS Wire ] The 10th anniversary of the iPhone, dubbed iPhone X, is shipping out and en route to the lucky few who pre-ordered last week. iPhone X is scheduled to be officially released Friday, November 3rd. On previous launches of the iPhone, Apple had nearly three times the availability on-hand. However, this is not the case for iPhone X. Due to the revolutionary design, the complexity of the new OLED screen, and limited supply—pre-orders were snapped up in minutes. Hope is not entirely lost for the techno avant-garde; few official resellers and online retailers are holding onto iPhone X inventory—recently launched US-based Polymirth.com is just one of a handful globally. “We are fortunate enough to have secured inventory for iPhone X which was not an easy task. Following our successful pre-order launch, we only have a few hundred remaining units available,” exclaims Andrew Hajjar Co-Founder of Polymirth.com Polymirth.com o ... Read more »

Dubai, United Arab Emirates -Monday, November 6th 2017 [ AETOS Wire ] According to the latest Global Economic Conditions Survey (GECS), produced by ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) and IMA (the Institute of Management Accountants), business confidence across the United Arab Emirates (UAE) fell to its lowest level since the first quarter of 2016. Lindsay Degouve de Nuncques, head of ACCA Middle East said “In the UAE, the capital expenditure and employment subcomponents were both very weak.
