Is a "NAB" an event where new products have been released in the past? What about it being on a Sunday?

 

[BenRoethig]

Expect a new version of Final Cut Pro Studio with Shake technology built in and Final Cut Express 6.

If I remember correctly, the 17" MBP was released at NAB last year. I don't remember the day of the week, I was going to say Saturday, but don't hold me to that.

FCS is more likely but this hall is big.80,000 sq. ft.

Apple has yet to announce WHO is giving the presentation.

 

[puckhead193]

its prob gonna be something pro dealing with Final Cut Studio cause that's the background for it...

 

[mrgreen4242]

I think the 720p downloads are much more likely. Movies maybe, TV shows likely. They may drop some Leopard hints, though.

I'm really curious how they'll price HD content. If they're smart they'll price it the same at the current SD and drop the SD prices. They could really steal any thunder HDDVD and BR have going at this point with a great pricing structure... guess we'll see.

Mac Pros maybe. I doubt we'll see iPods at a professional Broadcasters conference.

Maybe it will be like the Price is Right. "Where better to use your new FCS than on your BRAND NEW <insert new mac here>!" *applause**future buyers jump up and down screaming and nearly faint at the sight*

Usually either Software aimed at the Broadcast market or Pro hardware.

Good News! Mac's are allready on sale!

I'm hoping for Leopard hints and 720p video on iTunes (and in the UK lol). Though I'm not expecting either!

 

[cbud]

I predict no new computers till Leopard is released. Once that is out we will see a completely new lineup, everything is ready for an upgrade.

Makes sense, but did they send out invitations last year?

 

[hob]

So new Final Cut is a given then, but I'd imagine it may well require core animation... or some new Leopard features... so I'm hopeful for a Leopard release!

 

[timon]

Wonder what else will be released? Maybe the new iMac I hope, I hope, I hope.

well full screen ipod could be good for watching shows and stuff hence relevant to broadcasting.Would also be cool if it had wifi lol for some lovely wireless streaming...
