Let's Rock: Live Coverage Options and Discussion

[SilentGreg]

Odd that they're calling the silver color "black".

Agreed. Apple seems to be judging the color off of the wheel, not the casing for the black/silver unit.

 

[Jelite]

..and one last thing Macbook-chromatic

 

[Surely]

This one better have a cheese grater or I will be very, very disappointed in you Apple.


I wonder if Nike has been waiting for the announcement of this new nano with accelerometer to roll out their new Run + software.... probably.

And the answer didn't take long to appear:

There’s Nike+ iPod! Built in to the iPod Touch. BUILT IN to the iPod. The receiver is built-in to the iPod Touch, so no receiver necessary.

 

[Breegy]

Does that say "SexyBack"?

 

[SilentGreg]

..and one last thing Macbook-chromatic

Or John Mayer takes the stage.

Stainless steel back and built-in speaker for the iPod Touch.

… plus volume controls and Nike+ built in

Since a new classic came out, do the older models go on clearance or something?

Also does anyone have the cost per gb in the classic models. I want to know if the 250 price drop is cheaper or proportional.

I imagine that the classic is better value for money as it uses cheaper components: a hard drive instead of a flash drive used in the nano.

I dont get why they kept telling media this event was going to be a very big deal....none of this is earthshaking stuff

 

[bytethese]

Sweet we can eat the i-Pods without getting sick...big news

But do they Blend?

 

[ayzee]

Im liking the look of the steel back

 

[MidiMonk]

Or John Mayer takes the stage.

PLEASE no John Mayer, I just ate breakfast..

 

[oldMac]

Steve's moving awfully fast...

There must be a surprise coming...

The events typically last about an hour so we have about half an hour remaining.

In that case I hope it's something HUGE since Steve is blowing through all this new stuff

yah, but with no 'larger' model any more, we're losing capacity

 

[Andrew07]

I hope the Nike transmitter is released soon!

 

[puckhead193]

But do they Blend?

we'll know in a week
i'm betting yes

 

[Breegy]

If they're calling the black and silver one black, then what are they calling the black one?

 

[reno55]

and I hope they will add the making playlists feature to the iphone also

 

[macfan881]

now im just waiting on how much this update is gonna cost

 

[ebrunn]

Steve will prolly talk about adding all the genius features on the iPhone in the new 2.1 and announce all the other features.

 

[SilentGreg]

In that case I hope it's something HUGE since Steve is blowing through all this new stuff

I agree. Hopefully new Macs and new iPhone firmware that DOESN'T crash.

 

[I'm 5 ft 8]

Any guesses when the new iTunes will be available for downloading ?

 

[thecritix]

the guest arrives...

[NeoMayhem]

I dont get why they kept telling media this event was going to be a very big deal....none of this is earthshaking stuff

But all together it is!

However, iTunes still looks like a carbon app, why???
