ANyone know a good solution for TV out with a DVI connection? the ADC is going to my 17" SD, but I have the DVI (or VGA with adapter) that is open.. Anything out there do HD resolution or even progressive 480p?

I just want to watch the live keynote in the big time!

too bad apple is to cheap to give us a simple svideo on our video cards. if we had one it would be very simple. oh well.

Re: a word of reason

I couldn't agree with you more. Everyone wants to make the 7th out to be the entire year (holy grail), and may be setting themselves up for disappointment.

I believe many things are gonna happen later in the year ; I myself wishing to see an sorely needed REAL UPDATE to the powermac line. Anything less than a REAL G5 / IBM 970 with substantial improvements isn't considered an update in my book.

I've waited forever for this purchasing factor.

Help

Where on the net can I find previous Macworld keynotes - apple used to have them at this page:

http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf02/

but no more, it seems. I wanted to check I can stream it through a router firewall, which I don't think I can. Any ideas?

The loop rumors site seems to make the most sense, and seems to be the most realistic rumor about this new device that i've seen... To think... My iPod helped spawn this new device (whatever it is...) I'm sure I'll want one the second I see it. It seems to be more like a PDA than anything else... Color screen, inkwell, video, the size of a newton! I can't wait...

Oh jeez I hope this isn't what Apple is doing

The Newton failed for the same reason the Palm succeeded and the TabletPCs (except for the convertible laptops) are probably going to fail. They're just too darn big. If this device isn't pocket size, then why not just get an iBook? My iBook is pretty darn small....

If Apple does indeed introduce an iPad, I hope that in conjuction they release an elegant folding USB keyboard/trackpad, then this might be a cool portable solution. Then they should make the iPad be able to stand up like a picture frame, so you could basically use it like a laptop. I still don't agree with releasing a handheld that big, but oh well, only one more day to wait....

17" Apple Display cheaper???

I went out to CompUSA Saturday and got myself the Apple 17" studio display...there was only one left in the store. I bought it knowing their (CompUSA's) price protection policy...so hopefully when Apple lowers their price, I will get the difference....I am banking on it so "Apple , don't let me down!!!"

TechTV

Does anyone know if the keynote will be on TechTV, I know it hasn't been since the new iMac was introduced. What happened with all of that anyway?

apple doesnt let them do it anymore. macminute emailed them and they responded no to showing it. it is good that apple doesnt let them shot it. they would alwasy diss the mac products right as steve introduced them. it will quicktime from now on.

Save the box and packing material. For all we know, Apple could release a 17" Widescrren to match what the iMac G4 17" has. And if that happens, it will be a different product and not usable for price protection.
