[CWallace]

hes spending waaaaaaaaayyyy to much time on movie rentals, who really cares, move on steve

Apple does - it's a constant revenue stream to keep the monies coming after we buy the product.

A new MBP would have a wonderful halo effect

 

[mongoos150]

Word, nothing too exciting yet. AEBS that most of us already have, software updates, and rentals. *YAWN*

 

[xchaotic]

Not really...a product that was promised to be free, $20 for an iPod touch update and expensive movie rentals that wont be in the UK for months.

and in Europe for years

 

[Nukemkb]

Has anyone been disappointed so far?

ask when it ends 'one more thing...'

well when you don't have enough juice you fill the glass with ice

 

[Project]

HOW?

How is it reasonable?

99 cents for 24 hours........that would be reasonable.

Sorry but where else on the planet outside of Bit Torrent can you find on demand HD movies for 99 cents, that will play on your big screen TV without a computer?

 

[SilentLoner]

I like the sound of that new AP extreme with the hard drive. Guess I know what I'll be saving up for next!

How much will that be on the british store? I would love to have the time machine feature.

 

[Intarweb]

So far I'll be sticking with Netflix and get their top box. Subscription service>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Apple's pricing structure.

 

[Squidly]

When he spends this much time on something, the price is always higher than we expect.

Edit - I stand corrected...it's a free update.

 

[Brianstorm91]

well when you don't have enough juice you fill the glass with ice

That's a good one!

 

[mashinhead]

how about he says that .mac is available for free to all leopard users. that would make me happy.

 

[bigbadnewill]

i'm not disappointed at all. Think there is some great stuff going to be released. What i am disappointed about is the fact that none of it hardly will be in the UK

 

[VZGuy]

there will be a free software update to all the old Apple TVs as well

 

[sk8r527]

music can be bought from within apple tv

 

[VZGuy]

they wanna make Apple TV more accessible

 

[Intarweb]

The only thing in the air right now is fail.

 

[twoodcc]

he did spend a lot of time on the appleTV though.

 

[CWallace]

Babysteps... Babysteps... That it's available is a start.

If adoption rates are low due to cost, it will adjust itself.

 

[Macinva]

I wasn't expecting a lot so I'm not really disappointed. I was hoping for a 16g Iphone option but I'll take the apps they released for the Ipod Touch.

 

[steve_hill4]

So far:

Updates to iPhone and iPod Touch: wireless products
Updates to Airport Extreme/Time Capsule & Leopard functionality: wireless
Updates to iTunes and Apple TV: wireless

I'm beginning to think something being in the air is slowly disappearing.

 

[billchase2]

free upgrade for appletv...

paid upgrade for ipod touch...

weird.

 

[xchaotic]

technically, there has to be a computer with a processor and a memory and ethernet to prebuffer and decode and de-DRM the stuff anyway so it's not w/o computer in my view, it's just the usual ease of use that Apple provides is what appeals to a TV user.

 

[VZGuy]

new price of Apple TV starting today is $229, and

 

[priller]

The new Apple TV is a free software update.
