Palm should have built the app store for it sooner to make a better initial impact
- Chris Miller
So, who wants to bet that even though Calacanis pushed the Arrington issue before the show, he'll bring it up again during the show. Arrington's a prick, apology or no...
- James Britton
Mister IQ, last year they announced the new Touch in the summer, before it came out in September
- Matthew
And A Mic In A Ipod Touch So Mic Apps All Work
- nanochrome
My WinMo phone has an app to turn it into a wifi router
- Michael Benny
I have a T-Mobile MDA and haven't upgraded because EDGE data is costing me $5 but if I got a new phone, it would be $25!, thats over $200 more per year!
- Sean Flaherty
I'm sure we'll see webOS on different form factors withing 12 months... there's already a candybar in the works
- Ken Sheppardson
@Jay throw Android in at number three (maybe tied with 2) and shove blackberry down
- James Britton
Japan has HD video cell phones already!
- Scott Hubble
Google gave out free phones at I/O - think Apple will do the same at WWDC?
- Jesse Stay
Matthew: Still it may not be released until September by my guess.
- Mister IQ
"apple has a tendency to make me drool"
- Jay McCormack
how about a 3G macbook Air using a via cpu & ION platform
- Michael Mooney
Apple will never release a netbook with ATOM processor.
- Akshay Dodeja
Is there a way to keep the twit.tv popout window always on top?
- zephyrlily
zephyrlily: I use nvidia software to put any window on top
- Jay McCormack
Apple Might Make a netbook but they will redefine what netbooks are
- nanochrome
zephyrlily, you would probably have to have a separate app that does that for you
- Matthew
Jackson Pollock: I hope it would have a full version of OS X.
- Mister IQ
I think Apple might drop the price of AIR, the margins on
- Akshay Dodeja
Steve hates pens and gloves and everything like that. They would never do a tablet with a pen, and never do a tablet without a pen, but with OSX. It will be a huge iPhone
- Jackson Pollock
I tend to agree with Jeff Cannata about tablets, iPhone is a perfect size, just needs more power/storage/openness
- James Britton
Dear Jason, you know which platforms already have the turn-it-into-a-wifi-hotspot app you described? Windows Mobile and Symbian. For months.
- Vlad Bobleanta
Mister IQ. They would never do that. if an engineer gave Steve a touchscreen devise that you have to hit a tiny little red x in a corner to exit an app, he would throw it out the window. It has to have a touchscreen OS.
- Jackson Pollock
I'm so proud of them, they haven't mentioned twitter once!
- Curtis
They're not going to release a Netbook unless there is some sort of developer focus. Remember this is a dev conference.
- Jesse Stay
Jason the digg blog that announced (http://blog.digg.com/?p=808) digg ads says "Conversely the more an ad is buried, the more the advertiser is charged, pricing it out of the system."
- russtbarnacle
@Jesse, popout the twit.tv and put it next to your FF window
- zephyrlily
zephyrlily I know how to do that - that's not what I was referring to. :-)
- Jesse Stay
Jason is full of it, people will watch good ads... Superbowl anyone?
- Roy Pledge
@jesse I'm sure when (if?) Wave comes out, Leo will do that.
- Vlad Bobleanta
Bing takes over Yahoo, wihtout much effort. all advertising
- Chris Miller
I don't think Bing is doing well regionally beyond the US. i can't get the map stuff to work in Australia.
- Jay McCormack
But Google Is Better And I Don't Like Going To Any Microsoft Site
- nanochrome
Bing 's reign as Number 2 search engine ends after one day - @TechCrunch - http://bit.ly/sEHTW
- Todd
bing = because it's not google or bing is not google
- Holger Eilhard
Even if BING is great, what is the compelling reason to use anything other than Google which IS great and I am really comfortable with already?
- Joel Asaro
I'm very impressed with Bing. I haven't used Google since Bing come out.
- Joseph Ferris
Joel: Agreed... there's just not enough to move accross to it
- Jay McCormack
That's the problem it good but there is nothing about Bing that makes people want to use it over Google
- Kim Landwehr
The video preview is a thumbnail, how can Denise expect you to watch a video in a search result in total
- Jay McCormack
Bing; how about not showing previews of short videos. problem solved
- Roberto Bonini
This is the same issue over and over again. It's not the technology's responsibility to not watch inappropriate content (porn or violence or whatever). It's the parent's responsibility to instill the right values in the child.
- Jay McCormack
See! Leo has done a good job educating his kids to look at the right stuff
- Jay McCormack
Where is everyone going for WWDC coverage?
- Mister IQ
@Chris That's true, but I would personally rather just see user-generated content without the advertising. At least Digg is doing it much better, as long as they clearly disclose what is advertisement, than banner ads and popups.
- 321
is WWDC going to be streamed, or will it only be for download after the fact
- Matthew
Bing video search does show youtube videos
- Kim Landwehr
Hard work... it's taken PayPal years to get it right
- Jay McCormack
Exactly when did PayPal get it right?
- Roy Pledge
LOL @ clinton and cigar. Did anyone get that?
- Lise
Would be nice if they bring back their old features they took away because their infrastructure couldn't handle them before they try to add new ones.
- Ken Sheppardson
Of the many payment options, it's easy, it works, it's international, it might be expensive, but it does work.
- Jay McCormack
he didnt make any intention to even use or expand no the account, he just wanted it down
- Chris Miller
yeah ken, but you and i know that's not a technical problem
- Chris Heath
@Lise: I laughed, but then felt guilty because no one seemed to find it funny :P
- Cory Roush
Have you ever tried to contact Twitter support?
- Jesse Stay
@Ken I agree. I'm still upset about this whole @ reply feature
- Lise
You have to have TechCrunch to write about it for them to listen that you are being impersonated.
- Jesse Stay
Tony La Russo's 501c3: It's NOT about adoptions; it's about DONATIONS. Donations might be affected by something like a Twitter account, especially in the future.
- shelter watch
I guess this means Tony's not getting on the Featured users list
- Jesse Stay
@JasonC you look cute as Maverick! I say keep the look. You don't need the cigar, though.
- Lise
Lise: he needs a cap or something to finish the look
- Jay McCormack
Bill Gates did talk about this at D5 tho, people forget
- Jackson Pollock
Natal can recognize 48 points of motion compared to the PS3's 2, plus you know Natal will work with Windows 7
- Matthew
Natal combined with the new controller Sony showed would be pretty slick.
- Ken Sheppardson
Felicia Day looks good with anything! :-P
- Hipp
from IM
watch the Bill Gates and Steve Jobs interview from D5. Bill talked about it and was laughed out because people thought he meant the Wii interface
- Jackson Pollock
Shane Kim said that releasing Natal in the spring would be "aggressive". So they still have a year or more to work on it.
- Matthew
The press has completely missed the navigation piece of Natal...did you see the minority report style menu conteol and the voice control of teh video playback?
- Rob
Wii's just integrating acceleration to get position. The Sony controller actually measures the position of the controller, doesn't it?
- Ken Sheppardson
I want 3D games with those controllers
- Jesse Stay
MS will put Natal on Windows as well, so Minority Report type interface is possible when this comes out
- Matthew
Lindsay: All chats on FriendFeed are real time.
- Nicholas James
what if they added skype to xbox using natal
- Michael Mooney
You know what drives me mad! "Fall 09" as a release date. Just watched the scribblenauts video, says available Fall 09. 1: Fall = Autumn for me, 2: When is Autumn? Each hemisphere has autumn at different times of the year! Argghhhhh!
- Jay McCormack
Leo, the newest dashboard for the Xbox (NXE) lets you install your games to the hard drive, and it barely makes a sound. The fans don't make that much noise, it's the DVD drive that makes all the sound due to wanting short load times
- Matthew
The streaming HD on the TiVo Netflix interface is beautiful!
- Aaron T. Harvey
I think that ringtone should have Keyboard Cat as a backing track instead.
- Ken Sheppardson
I don't think Michael was the only person who was supposed to get a review unit Friday and didn't. I suspect there were logistical issues.
- Ken Sheppardson
It works great within iChat or Google Talk
- Hipp
from IM
It's stuck between real time chat and blog-type comments
- Aaron T. Harvey
"The Apple Worldwide Developers Conference 2009 will kick off with a keynote address on Monday, June 8 at 10:00 a.m. A team of Apple executives, led by Phillip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, will deliver the keynote address" -- http://developer.apple.com/wwdc...
- Ken Sheppardson
anyone watching twit live? is this a green screen shot or are they at WWDC?
- David Lloyd
That pretty much means tablet as far as I'm concerned. In terms of touch, the trackpad on a macbook is the same hardware as the iphone/possible mac tablet
- Jackson Pollock
Well, Quicktime has been the same for the last 3-4 versions more or less
- Jackson Pollock
You know, you guys were nagging Apple like this last year. You wanted 3G, you wanted GPS bla bla. Now you're poo-pooing GPS and saying that there is zero coverage of 3G in the US. The beauty of the iPhone is the lack of a continual need for hardware updates. The functionality is not tied to the phone. Every version of the phone has the same functionality, only with different specs
- Jackson Pollock
