so what does everyone think? disappointed or not?
Nicholas James and Spencer liked this
highlights definitely drm-free itunes and new iPhoto
- MG Siegler
I'd be a LOT more excited if I had $2799
- Greg
I was disappointed no Mac Mini updates, just a $2800 laptop.
- Spencer
All I really wanted was a new Mini.... so yeah. But having said that iLife looks outstanding.
- Brian Roy
yeah greg is this battery was in all the macbooks i would sell mine and buy the new one
- MG Siegler
@mark I want an iphone with more storage.
- Susan
Some of the iMovie enhancements are *definitely* interesting now that I'm doing a little bit more with video.
- Dan York
great coverage thanks -- disappointed at the announcements or lack thereof
- Jeff Fedor
new iPhoto is a plain rip off of Picasa and Windows Live Photo Gallery.. wont call THAT a highlight
- Imran Hussain
no new imacs -- at least no announced here
- MG Siegler
If it wasn't for this room, this would be a major disappointment.
- RAD Moose
BOOOOOOOO
- andy brudtkuhl
apple store is down
- MG Siegler
Disappointed, I wanted a mention, a whisper about Apple TV - Guess Roku is getting my business
- Christian Messer
Agree with @MG about the highlight of the keynote being DRM-fee iTunes tracks and iPhoto '09
- Vinko
Thanks for the coverage you provided here
- Dan York
Good thing Jobs DIDN'T Keynote... *yawn*
- Anthony K. Valley ©
@christian what do you want the apple TV to do?
- Susan
Welcome to the real time web!!!
- Brian Roy
Sad there was no Mini update. iWork and iLife updates look good.
- Will King
Apple Store is down? hope they aren't hosted the same place as MacRumors ;-)
- Karim
MG (& everybody else) - whadda ya think? Another special event in March?
- Christian Messer
Aside from the 17" MBP which we knew was coming, and the extended battery life, it was all software. Disappointing 'cause everyone's always eager to buy the latest new shiny Apple hardware. :)
- Dan Hsiao
Yeah... hope so.
- Vinko
boring
- Shannon Burns
disappointed, who cares about iLife. Picasa does it in their beta.
- Ryan
great news in the form iphoto updates, imovie updates and itunes drm-free but disappointed with no new macmini
- Kiran Patchigolla
boring, disappointing - tony bennett - really?
- Colin
Actually pleased with the lack of hardware updates. Less $, less waste.
- Dave Ferrick
better processor to handle 1080p video, ability to add internet video sources like Hulu, Fox, Veemeoh, Qik etc....if you see video available for purchase on iTunes, be able to click to buy ad free, Dashboard overlay to be able to use widgets OR the ability to use iPhone/iPod Touch apps on the big screen and control with the iPhone/iPod Touch. And sell the older model at an entry point of $99.
- Paul Schreiber
I left my heart in SF. Blah!
- Than R
pleased for apple or pleased for consumers? I always end up disappointed because I anticipate too much, nothing compares to when the iphone was launched
- Franz Sittampalam
seriously disappointed. Very little new for *macs*.
- adin
Basically some software upgrades and DRM free (the 17" macbook was a given)
- Mark Philpot
Nice software upgrades, and, erm, that's about it.

Isiah Thomas Was Out Cold When Cops Found Him! - http://digg.com/basketb...
"I hate to say it, but trying to OD on Lunesta (eszopiclone) is just going to give you a *big* head of hurt for about a week...after you wake up. In about 12 hours. If it was a suicide attempt, it was pretty lame."

First private rocket successfully reaches orbit - http://digg.com/space...
"They're not man-rated. And until they demonstrate a lot greater reliability, it's not even a thought. A few years of re-supply launches without issue might get them to the point where they can start thinking about adapting a CEV or somesuch. But SpaceX isn't really going for the tourist industry or the Orbital X-Prize (AFAIK), so they're not a threat to Branson."

iPhone 2.1 jailbroken with end run around iTunes 8 defenses - http://digg.com/apple...
"Cydia, Bossprefs, and Categories have also all been updated. Cycorder and Qik work fine and I could have sworn seeing someone post a modified framework. ;) I've had some spurious reboots/crashes during sync, but my 16Gb 1st gen recovered itself quite nicely. I have all my winterboard themes back and running nicely."

2008 May be the Coldest Year of the 21st Century - http://digg.com/environ...
"you seem to have missed the part that even with the strong La Nina this year, which lowered average temperature .1C (making it the "coldest" of the last 8 years), this was still the *10th hottest year since 1850* This is very strong evidence of global climate change -- even La Nina can't bring temperatures down anywhere near what used to be average. So, go ahead and stick your head back in the sand, at the very least we might get a fossil and some petrochemicals out of your remains in a few thousand years."

The ugliest aircraft you will ever see - http://digg.com/autos...
"It's one of the two "live" remaining Victors, last used operationally during Desert Storm. Looking closely you can see from the nose artwork that it's the "Teasin' Tina". Amazing that it's got 91,000lbs of offload fuel capacity. Anyone know why it still has the intakes on the top of the fuselage? In their original role (i guess) as nuke detectors, I thought they would have been removed during the conversion to tankers."
