New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

it belongs in the same category as the time machine UI imo

lol i have a macbook and an iphone so wtf would i need this product for

we all know this is going to be huge and we're all going to have one eventually

iBooks for Mac OS X would be pretty helpful

iZune

not sure this will be the huge success Apple is expecting..

ipad time machine

really want a way to sync my iBooks down to iphone. not gonna be carrying this thing everywhere

At $499 yeah, this will be huge.

lol the ipod touch is already useless (srs boourns to u if u have one of these btw), a big ipod touch is even uselesser! (cept this does have 3G, which is nice)

you know the ipod touch is ENORMOUS for them financially, right?

will probly end up w/one of these tho :/

yeah, ipod touch is popular no doubt

they are going to sell billions of these li'l guys, with their retarded screen shape, no camera, stupid data-only plan, and ludicrous app store.

everybody made all the "iPad" jokes while I was out, right

logistically i can't figure out with i'd do with my iphone and what i'd do with my ipad, considering i'd be owning both. it all seems a little ridiculous.

xpost -- Or linked to them.

given what a success this thing is going to be, the existence of this bullet point, like it's a feature, is depressing to me:

xp: ok just checking

so, i'm in a hotel room. i've got my iphone, and i've got wifi. the phone basically becomes JUST a phone, to answer and receive calls, and send text messages. i don't need an iphone anymore, i can finally go back to verizon.

just fyi cutty i dont think this is targeted at you

also how can you manipulate the multi touch screen with your hooves

hey uh buddy do we carry any rush cds in this store?
no need, I have them all on my ipad
you have an ipad?!
are you kidding me, no. no, I'll grab my iphone

Dear Steve,

I would pay $549 for a 120GB iphone with better camera and battery. Not this crap.

Thanks

for you, or for everyone? I don't know how many people are makin animations every day, but everybody uses the web

Wow, so its just another thing that I can browse the web with huh... how special and magical.

Seriously, I can't be the only person who thinks that a tablet pc = the perfect amateur digital animation studio. Sure its a niche userbase but it wouldn't be hard to cater to. I mean, doesn't apple like to be the leader in using computers for creativity?

so is stet the only one here who's getting one of these at 1.0 then? elvis?

TBH I bet when most people's parents see this they'll say something along the lines of "A computer without a keyboard? How do I type in w w w dot ebay dot com ?"

lol

xp c'mon take your liberal arts away from here, this is a technology product

seriously? i'm sure i'm not the only person who thinks this thing is an ideal tool for professional astronomy, but i didn't expect to see it mentioned in the keynote.

but wait, i have a laptop! suddenly i don't need an ipad anymore

I wish that, like the eeePC before it, you could at least disable the fisher price interface for a full OSX-like desktop

I mean, doesn't apple like to be the leader in using computers for creativity?

Naw, they're the leader in using computer to make billions of $$$ in profits.

The creativity part, that's other companies.

i think the anxiety of deciding which device to use for what will drive me insane in the end

lol the ipod touch is already useless

... why exactly?

yeah, they tried the creativity stuff in the 90s

cutty you should tote an apple tv too, for your hotel room

the fact the itouch/iphone is so great is exactly the reason the ipad is unnecessary.

apart from the currently niche e-reader market.

apple's just into making different things to watch pr0n on

yes, i don't know why they don't still make these, they were the best

oh wait, will this thing actually play pr0n?

seriously? i'm sure i'm not the only person who thinks this thing is an ideal tool for professional astronomy, but i didn't expect to see it mentioned in the keynote.

Oh surely not. Basically, though, what I'm saying is that I don't think either of our niche dreams of how we could use a tablet are going to be possible with the iPad because it doesn't have a real OS on it (as far as I know from what I've heard so far).

lol @ the handles.

"its mobile"

xp, oh absolutely

thomp: no 3G

if steve had at least had the decency to demo 'zing' then I'm sure we wd all be less grouchy

xp, i just didn't get why this applied to animation in particular

Also guessing why some of the iPhone apps won't work is because it doesn't have a microphone, so no Voip apps or anything like that.

yall are on some "how did bush win? i dont know anyone who voted for him" shit
