Dropbox will take advantage of your faster local network when it can. Maybe iCloud will work in the same way--your pictures would be uploaded over time to the net, but in the meantime it'll also send it to your phone via wifi, bypassing the cloud.

This brings us the tantalising prospect that the Apple TV could in theory have access to *all* of your media, through the cloud.
If that happened I'm definitely getting one!

Edit: never mind, I see what you were responding to. I think you just quoted the wrong part.
Hopefully they'll be "one more thing"!
This is not to say that I will not watch every second of the keynote as it unfolds
Agreed I hope it will be
1) a brand new iphone- don't even care if it isn't released till september as long as it is announced
2) support for flash- I am thinking of starting a trust fund for apple to start supporting flash and send apple the money then maybe
Down for what exactly ? If there's no hardware refreshed, there's no reason to bring the store down.
I got strep throat so I stayed home from university class today, hoping this will pass the time before I can swallow without crying again. Although, if they decide to not support 3GS with iOS5, I may begin to cry regardless.

3 things about this recurring rumor...
If Apple ever gets in the business of making televisions, get ready for sticker shock to no end (there is no AT&T or Verizon plan to subsidize the price, you'll just get the full price plus the Apple profit margin and it won't be relatively pretty). I could already foresee a million complaints of how the very same panel in the form of an LG television plus an external
TV is $XXX cheaper, so why pay so much to have it inside? I could also foresee that the next larger size or two plus an external TV would probably prove to be priced about the same as the Apple-branded set.What a shame it would be to have a 1080p capable panel yet have the
TV and thus the Apple PVR capped at 720p. If it's based upon the 2nd gen, that's exactly what it would be. If we're going to hope for this, we need to hope for an TV platform upgrade that finally embraces 1080p.The best way for this dream to come true would be for Apple to license the
TV platform to TV manufacturers and "encourage" them to build it into their sets.Being very much conditioned by German grammar and spelling, this is to me still 'one word'. I mean it is one single, non-qualified physical object, why should it not be one word?
Last minute thoughts
Some people will moan that if Apple introduce X,Y,Z that they didn't do A,B,C.
Some people will moan about price, no matter what that price might be.
Some people will moan because that is all they ever do.
Everybody else will likely be very happy...
Oh and anything Apple does will be regarded by some as 'generic' by the end of Steve's speech.

Fixed that there for you. Don't be part of the problem.
Personally, I don't give a crap about iCloud, I just hope they don't screw up on iOS 5 (widgets and notifications, Twitter stuff not too "deep integration style", support the 3GS in some fashion so that it gets 2 iOS upgrades like the iPhone and the iPhone 3G before it) and I'd be happy with a release date and price for Lion.
Do you have a link for information to this, or a link to where the stream will be? I can't seem to find one.

I really dont think apple will ever go into the television business. As they've said many times, they only consider it a 'hobby'. Besides, who wants to spend that much money on something you can buy in the shops for £100?
I almost did the same until I realized I need the money and that I can sneak in reading the coverage at work with my iPad over the public wifi at my building. I'm also packing my lunch today which I never do and I will eat it at my desk.
You mean a video stream of some kind? If its delayed, it's delayed by hardly a fraction of a minute which is affordable.
Can I have a link for the same please?
