I CAN SHARE MUSIC ON TWITTER

omg~

No one be alarmed - the horrifying sound you just heard was my skin crawling in revoltion to the idea of the twittering of people going, "ooo epic lolz on song you played" and other such crap.

 

[puffnstuff]

I hope they plan on releasing a game controller. If not they need to shhh about the touch competing

Well without iTunes, an iPod isn't as effective a platform as it is with iTunes.

 

[Trexznl]

So, who doesn't see the..

".. all this, and now we even made it better.."v coming..

And then the introduction of the new iPod touch thingy..

tbh Twitter in general is pretty useless, integrating iTunes isn't going to change much.

Yeah, that and camera's being added to the iPods. What exactly were you expecting?

 

[Eidorian]

Thankfully

It works both ways. You get the power savings but you don't get the compatibility.

I was with this until they started complaining about the DS/PSP. Apple - they are better gaming devices . Very poor show.

 

[kcjohn]

Notice how they focus on the touch first

If the 3G has the upgrades we think it will have and is not delayed. The Zune HD is finished before it even gets started..

Anyone notice that the market share graphs have a new texture now? http://tinyurl.com/nl4wat those squiggly lines

 

[smiddlehurst]

I'll say this much... I bet Sony are hating this. The PSP Go comes out in the next, what, couple of weeks? Same price as an iPod Touch (if not more actually... wait and see prices after the event I guess), no access to UMD games so the only legacy stuff people can use are downloaded games, more expensive software (at the moment anyway)... Suddenly the Touch looks very much like a valid competitor with the added bonus of being, well, an iPod. Not to mention all the apps that AREN'T games.

 

[macintoshtoffy]

iPods aren't x86.

And what has x86 got to do with the price of fish in Norway during winter?

 

[Cander]

/facepalm

Here comes the endless boring game demonstrations. How many events are they going to do this at?

 

[Morod]

Link to iTunes 9 is wrong

It takes you to iTunes 8.2.1 instead.

 

[Minimoose 360]

Yeah, that and camera's being added to the iPods. What exactly were you expecting?

Beatles. It seemed like too much of a coincidence to me having an event not on a Tuesday just when the remastered library was being released and stuff...wishful thinking?

And I was fine with iTunes' interface before.

One thing I am glad Steve is ok :]

 

[Spades]

It wouldn't be an iPod event without 30 minutes of commercials, would it?

 

[F0l3ert]

iPod nano, camera near the bottom.
No camera for ipod touch, and will come in 64GB
Shuffle in 5 colors

 

[Macman1993]

AHH again with the demos NOBODY CARES APPLE
