More New Apple Products... This Tuesday?

Nay I say "Here we go again". Let the waiters get to that waiting thing. Let the "well Montevina is right around the corner" folks start asking if this upgrade should be skipped. And let everyone go nuts at 8:30 am on Tuesday if updates have not arrived. Business as usual.

I think the endless number of posts this guy has made regarding wanting to touch his screen has somehow gone even beyond whatever annoyance all of the MBP refresh threads have provided.

We get it, you want to touch your screen.

Amen brotha, preach it!! 😀

I agree about the signs and the strategy. I'm just complaining about it. I actually agree with it all, however, I just wish they'd give us that additional option to touch our screen if we wanted to.

You are funny, you just won't give in lol. I've said what I need to.
 
Wouldn't it make send to release Time Capsule after a new MBP? I mean- Time Capsule is made for Time Machine and without Time Machine, no Time Capsule.
(Eventhough every current 10.5 user can use Time Machine- there are heaps of us waiting for a new MBP and willing to spend a few bucks more on a nice backup solution)
 
This is going to be a MBP redesign.

I'm just phoning my answer in now so that you can tell me how right I was. 😉

Thats an insane comment. After Steve publicly put the stylus in the coffin at the introduction of the iPhone by stating "bleck... who wants to use a stylus", you think they are going to introduce an advanced device that uses a stylus?

Multi-touch is the way of the future.... Multi-TOUCH... the stylus is dead.

I agree with you guys about the stylus being beyond dumb, but in his defense the Multi-Touch surface patent had several things about a stylus in it.

I agree! Time Capsule is aimed at notebook customers, but then again, if apple is to keep up their 'every tuesday of 2008' pattern, they can't release more than one thing at once!

(yay! 500 posts!! MacRumors 6502 here i come!!)

I don't think the issue is releasing something every tuesday, because Time Capsule has already been announced. I doubt their announcement this Tuesday would be, "Attention: Were finally shipping your crap!" I for one wouldn't count that as keeping up with their 'every tuesday of 2008' pattern. I'm not saying that Time Capsule is this week, or that Apple must hold to this 'every Tuesday' pattern. I'm just saying the fact that they are shipping Time Capsule doesn't seem to have anything to do with a Tuesday announcement.

Hah. Arn hasn't stated why he thinks/knows that, so why believe him?

No offense, but you do know who Arn is right? In case you don't, Arn is the creator of the most well respected Apple rumors site. He's kind of well respected in this area...
 
As much as I'm looking forward to the new MBPs, I think the shipment in question is most likely Time Capsule. TC was supposed to ship by the end of February, and it looks like it will, otherwise Apple would have announced a delay by now.

Of course I know who he is, but just making a blanket statement doesn't constitute the truth. You do know George Bush, right? 😉

i think this would look cool, for the pro.

they should make the outside of the screen look like imacs front two tone (white, balck) the keyboard shell make that all black, make the keys them self white, with backlit. and the back all black with an illuninous apple logo.

and maybe where the usb eithernet cables r make that all white.
does anyone agree.

Haha so you want this in a laptop? No I don't agree, sorry 🙂

Why are people saying the MB / MBA keyboard WONT feature on the MBP as its not very Pro?

What keyboard does the Mac Pro ship with? Is it not the wired MB / MBA style keyboard?

It cant do as 'thats not very pro!' 😉

No matter what anyone is saying in these forums, Apple will have a touchscreen laptop soon. They will figure out a way.
Click to expand...

No, I really don't think they will. A Newton, YES. I know they are all computers, but a folding laptop will have a the multi-touch surface not a touch screen. It is not practical at all.
 
Make your minds up!!

My new MBP turned up Friday, and I've been told that Apple will exchange it for an new model that is released within a month! It would be nice to know if this phantom MBP will ever turn up. or should I just send it back and wait?

I mean it's thick and old. Apple can definitely thin the thing out by now and make it lighter and it's time that they did.
Click to expand...

Excellent idea. They could remove all the ports that currently prevent Apple from making the MBP any thinner, such as Ethernet and FireWire. They could then replace the DVI port by micro-DVI, toss the SuperDrive, shrink the screen, make the device much lighter and thinner, and call it, let's say "MacBook Air"...

FCS is MiA but at a guess it may reappear at around NAB 08 althogh Apple are no longer exhibiting. IOHD is on sale from AJA as its not an Apple product remember.
Click to expand...

Thanks. I know the IO isn't Apple hardware. And that sucks about FCS. Anybody know what the problem is??? 🙁 I'm surprised I haven't heard anything about people being pissed off about that. It just kind of disappeared.
