Movies in "Power Search"?

I just noticed there is a "Movies" genre in the "Power Search" on ITMS.

Has this always been there???

Having had a "detail" assigned to me many years ago (without the money Jobs has), I can say that it is no fun.

Might have been more fun if you had the money though huh?

How do you get 11 hours? I'm in Indiana which is EST and it's 11 PM here. I have 13 hours to go if my calculations are right. Right?

unfortunately you are the correct one - 13 hours to go.

Thanks for confirming~ I thought I was wrong. Can never figure out the time zones here in INdiana. Sometimes they change, sometimes they don't. Would have been PISSED if I slept through it.

Although the way this night i looking, I might be here hitting refresh all night.

 

[sirivers]

now wouldnt it be horrible, if no new products are released tommorow and jobs does the "One more thing" type events to us again?

Big deal. He was seen in the same clothes he always wears holding the same bottle of water and his car is the same exact Benzo that every famous person on the world already owns. Nothing new.

Scary thing is, who took the photos? Outside of Apple nuts and a few who read PC mags......who know what he looks like? Who would be the interested?

Even worse...someone took the time to find them and post them here.

I know I'm not the only one who's freak out by THAT

Ya... it's on the line. I guess if it were some Rock Star or Movie Star, I would have less of a problem with it. but that might just be what I'm used to.

I guess living in the DC area has tainted me. If I were a "public figure" here in DC I would not expect privacy anywhere I was.

Scared? Freaked out? What the Heck?

Sorry I stuffed up. 12 hours 53... now!

Well, it isn't as random as ot sounds which makes it less creepy. One could assume that anyone at the convention center (wehre I bet these were taken) is probably an Apple fan of some sort or would know who he is. And the next logical step is that heis probably a member of at least one of the Mac sites. And you know how it si tonight, as soon as a picture or news item hits one site, it propogates within seconds ...

so .. not really as creepy as it sounds ...

I know this is nosy... but man, I've noticed a lot of people waiting anxiously with their credit cards! be an interesting thread to see how much people have spent on apple products

One more note... it's the only genre that when searched returns no data. Can't believe Apple would leave a unused genre on the site. Can anyone confirm whether or not this is new?

He's a pretty big celebrity, even outside the computer world. He's well-respected in business and his look is very iconic and easily recognizable. Lots of people know who he is. There are countless celebrities more minor than he who have their pics taken by paparazzi all the time.

Noted. It's in the books.

 

[sirivers]

via engadget......

 

[eVolcre]

Juat to be pedantic ... announcing them, talking about them or mentioning them is, in fact, releasing them.

They may not be available for immediate delivery but that is a whole nuther topic (which is what I think you were implying)

I hope for the sake of my very large financial stake in AAPL that's not true. Anticipation for this event has been pushing the stock higher and higher, and if this MWSF is a dud, the stock will dive tomorrow.

TV Shows returns no results either.

Am I the only one who noticed?

Hey... Brand new to register, although I've been following MacRumors.com for a while... Straight to the point: Am I the only one who noticed picture 15 (they're numbered on the mirror site).

that's not the point.

His mug has been on the cover of TIME magazine several times, not to mention so many other publications, television, etc...I think a few people know what he looks like.
