Apple's keynote and the State of the Union are on the same day.
Not exactly ideal.
for some of us it is about the same important
I felt the same way about all of the speculation of a touch-based phone from Apple...Then Steve Jobs showed us. I'm HOPING this will be the same way? Because I sort of agree with your question.
I would expect a video event at some point in the near future. There is too much to fit into a tablet event.
Apple TV needs updating (hopefully 1080p and apps)
iTunes store updates (1080p and new subscription and streaming models to compliment not replace the current one)
New 720p iPhone/iPod dock (Apple changed the Apple remote, the current dock uses the old one, the latest iPhone and iPod touch could do 720p video if Apple allowed and it would provide an always good mid cycle boost in sales)
Blu ray build to order options and OSX updates to support it (yes I actually think it's coming)
I believe that this will be the year that Apple takes video as seriously as music, both in hardware support and distribution. If true, an annual video event to compliment the iPod event would seem logical, and as you can see, the first one could be quite full.
Rush Likes Apples ! ! !
He always struck me more as a ..."chocolate covered pig anus wrapped in lard soaked Bisquick" ...kind of guy,....
Huh , you learn something new every day.
I think the new iLife is going to come with a graphics program. Got that from the paint splatter on the invite.
iPhone OS 4.0 demo and beta release!
Aperture X aka. 3.0 pls.! maybe it will be part of iWork
Since Aperture is expected get some cooler pixel manipulation tools, it is only logical when they will release the same core as new iPaint in iLife.
I don't get it either. Apple is so late into what is essentially a "niche" product. It may go the way of the Apple TV, useless gadget others delivered far better and CHEAPER.
Mainstream Macs are so neglected it makes you wonder.
I WANT A QUAD CORE 15inch MBP PLEASE and keep the Express port. I really wish they would rethink hardware needs for working Professional Photographers, Graphic artist and people that scream the need for mobile horsepower.
Heh, if Faux News told me the sky was blue I'd have to go outside and double check.
Then again, a broken clock is right twice a day.
Why? They're a respected source of rumors and speculation of all sorts...
FoxNews does tend to speak out on stuff before getting all the facts as well.
On the other hand I would really love to see a new iPhone OS and I can't wait to see if a Tablet is revealed. It feels like iLife 09 was just released but there are some new features I would love to see in iMovie. iMovie needs to be able to upload 1080p to YouTube. Where is the 1080p option in the Media Browser export. We have to use QuickTime for now.

An iPhone 4.0 preview is more likely than not if a table is announced if only b/c the tablet will probably run on iPhone OS.
Yes I have used the newest iMovie. I know what it has. I am simply referring to what others have said... That iPhoto shouldn't be doing ANYTHING with my movie footage. I don't care how it is captured!
I think it is safe to say I wouldn't even be on this site if I were 'behind in my tech' lol! Look at my track record and you will see I am right 95% of the time with my Apple and industry predictions!
Ya, Pixelmator is a nicely designed app!
I would like to see it also have vastly improved I/O so injesting raw footage is much FASTER, and outputting primary edited clips is also MUCH faster. The CPU and bus can handle more than the ports can! Internal SSD, external HD/RAID is the future. My wish is for a battery powered mini with stupendous I/O as a "utility device". Interface with it on your iPhone.
Coolest new feature not yet implemented: REAL RAMDISC (XXL). Just put the bus in there and let customers who need it populate it themselves. Heck there are SOME people who will help Apple make a larger fortune off memory! Think about the upside Steve! We'll think of the functionality.

Yeah, i like listening to him on the Tuesday editions of the Mac OS Ken Day 6 podcast.
Agreed. The anti-Fox News diatribes are hilarious as they appear to imply that other news outlets (CNN, MSNBC, NYT, etc.) aren't completely full of biased bullcrap too...
Distrust the media, people, no matter which direction they lean.
Yes it does. iDVD needs to be completely revamped for iTunes Extras and LPs (and given a new name).
