Wow a very different thing when you must sing live!

 

[splashnader]

Apple store back up. Newly updated products and pre-ordering.

 

[einmusiker]

[Appleoholic]

His voice... lol!

 

[rorschach]

Forgive me if this has already been answered...
Does the new AppleTV support 1080P? I don't think I saw any mention of that.

If not...I'm fine with my current one.

http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs.html

H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Looks like the new Apple TV will be an even bigger failure than the first.

I have to agree. I am gonna keep mine and upgrade it with ATVFlash, especially since I don't feel like keeping my computer on just to stream content...

EXCELLENT iPod lineup (although my Classic stays here for my car), GREAT news about iOS, but the ATV seems like a step backwards with its rent-centric approach (which may be great for the US, but practically useless for the rest of the world, Apple's main cash source nowadays).

I'll admit I'm a bit annoyed.

In the US the iPhone 4 is $199/$299 on contract, so the iPod touch with all the new iPhone 4 features, minus the obvious calls and contract, is great.

In the UK, we pay £499 for the 16GB iPhone 4 to buy it outright, with iPod touch costing less than £200.

Basically, I have no contract, but I've essentially paid £300 to make phonecalls.

That's tough to swallow.

iPod Classic is still around

Looks like they've kept the Classic, just haven't updated it.

"I used to liiiiike this song, 'til it started to play a lot on every f'cking staaaation... all day and all night loooong..."

 

[Black Belt]

It was on the slide of features, it does, but Nike shoes suck for running so why would you use them anyway?

You buy the puck and a holder and get New Balance Shoes.

So if it only has 1 hdmi out... how do I get the sound to my receiver?

The Apple TV transmits sound using MAGIC!

Not a bad event if you ask me. Some pretty accurqte leaks/rumours too.

Did Chris just drop the F bomb?

 

[grubworth]

I' happy with the updates, would of bought a updated ipod classic, but I still have my current one (which struggles to sync from time to time...) to keep me going.

The new iTunes is what I was looking forward to most though... and its free

 

[Robert M.]

He dropped the f bomb haha

 

[Anuba]

Chris Martin may be the ultimate fanboy. Didn't he call his kid Apple?

The ultimate Apple fanboy... I mean fangirl would be Imogen Heap.
Pity they never invited her for one of these, she would've blown Chris Martin out of the water, solo performance wise.

HAHA Gotta love LIVE streaming. Chris just said $%&# it.

And what if you don't have a laptop?

Who doesn't this day and age?

I still don't understand the photo capabilities of the iPod touch yet. Both cameras take video, but what about photos?
