QuickTime Stream of Let's Rock Media event

Don't understand why the $79 headphones aren't compatible with the 3G.

I'm pretty sure software can be patched to include support for the volume controls and triple-click.

:mad:
 
The headphones should be compatible with BOTH the 3G and original iPhone.

Man, I don't know what's going on at Apple lately... :(
 
I was really kinda underwhelmed by this event today. Basically a "hey... look at our products but with more shine" kind of thing. Nothing grand or exciting.

You need bluetooth on iPod touch? For streaming music I suppose ? Or is it so ?

And my Sony Ericsson HBH-GV435a Bluetooth Headset for listening to podcasts that I download everyday. I like to listen to podcast while I work and with this baby no one notices. hihihihihi :D

Now do you see why I need bluetooth.

An all time low for me this one. HEY STEVE a bunch of taller ipods, that pretty much was it, is somehow supposed to make us all excited? GET MOVING APPLE! :mad: . Or was is it the unbelievably unexpected news that the ipod touch is well the iphone sans the receiver....

VERY VERY UNDERWHELMING? HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO JUST REBRAND THE IPHONE AS THE IPOD TOUCH? HOW LONG DID IT TAKE THE ENGINEERS AT APPLE TO CREATE THE NEW NANO? ARE WE TO BELIEVE THERE SOMEHOW WASN'T ANY TIME LEFT FOR SOME NEW MACS?:mad:

lol :rolleyes:
 
Apple stocks went down after the introduction of the products.
Wonder why? Can it be that we didn't get what we were wishing for :rolleyes:
Apple, try listening to your customers needs. :D

Is the political nonsense in your signature really necessary? I mean I would love to post video clips of McCain's doublespeak all over the forums, but I figure it's not an appropriate time or place for such things..

What do you expect? Apple has a 74% marketshare. They can release the 1G Nano's all over again and still sell millions.
 
OK.....for a moment I was also underwhelmed by the event.
My disappointment was exaggerated because of the many leaks before hand. And we did not get a "one last thing".

But then I went to the on-line store and really looked at the new stuff.
Boy this s#*% is way cool.

The new Nano simply rocks.
Come on guys who of you don't want one?
Shape wise it's now a Nano again. Yipee!
The screen is downright droolworthy.
The thinness is beyond belief and the accelerometer is a true slice of Apple brilliance.

The iTouch is equally amazing.
Look at it. Look what it does. What's to bitch about?

I admit to having had little time to check out iTunes 8, but just the availability of HiDef content is enough of a reason to make me smile.

So just for fun, take a moment to see as a child and look beyond your personal wish lists and preferences. You will see the products for the true wonders that they really are.

I am no fan boy and I have berated Apple so much lately for lots of reasons.
I still am re computers.
So I for one am really happy to feel this positive about them again.

Now which darn color am I gonna have ;)
 
Let's face it folks. This was a non-event. Jobs unfortunately looks like an alien and is on the way out (hopefully still alive). The iPod market is over saturated. iPhone 2G receives so much bad press, because it deserves it.

Common Apple it is time for you to step up to the plate and hit a home run! I still have faith in you.
 
I was gonna respond, but you summed it up nicely. Jbee got owned.

Oh really? You sound like one of those full of sh*t politicians. Do you have any basis on what you just stated here? Lowest battery life? Do you care to prove it. Last I checked, the 3G outlasted just about every other 3G phone. Very crude? What does that mean? Does that mean it's a beautiful device that's innovative and has the best internet experience out there? Perhaps you got your words mixed up. I could give a crap about the camera. If you didn't know any better, a camera on ANY phone sucks. It's just not possible to fit good optics in a phone and high megapixels are a joke in a camera phone. It's all about the optics and not megapixels! If camera phones were so good, real digital cameras would be obsolete.


Let me guess, you want all this for $399? By the way what do you do that you need 6GB of RAM? Vista possibly? OS X sure doesnt need 6GB to run smoothly. I can assure you no normal user would even come close to using 6GB. 4GB is even debatable for many of us. 2GB runs wonderfully!

I think you'll just be happier buying your Nokia and Windows box with 6GB of RAM. You sound like a specs kind of guy. Let us know how it works out with your crappy products with good specs.

I do not want one. In fact they are not even slightly interesting to me.

I already have a low capacity iPod and it does a hell of a lot more than that.
It's called an iPhone.

Now if they had released an iPod with 240GB or more I would have bought it instantly.

3 things:
[1] Snow Leopard — OpenCL + Grand Central + QuickTime X.
Quicktime X will underpin updates to iLife, the Pro Applications. OpenCL and Grand Central will combine to get better performance on identical hardware using Mac OS X than other Operating Systems.
[2] Further Development of Multi touch
And use in new form factors, such as tablets.
[3] PA Semi and custom chips for future iPod and Macs
And the interesting possibilities this will bring.

I think there is a lot to be excited about and that is only based on the stuff we know about. Apple is in a pretty good place at the moment and Steve stays there for a while yet.

I think Apple has plenty in the oven cooking, but nothing tastes great if it comes out too early.
 
I don't understand why the store HD downloads require a 2.0Ghz Core 2 Duo to play. The Apple TV certainly isn't that powerful and it plays them fine. My MacBook Pro 2.0Ghz Core Duo plays Freeview HD recordings in 1080i h.264 just fine too. Are they seriously saying that the HD downloads are more challenging than that?

I'm afraid to say this. But I think there is a direct relationship between his health and the greatness of the product releases. :(

Please get better Steve so that better products are released. :D
 
has anyone gotten the keynote to work? does any1 have a link to another site that is streaming it?
