Tease: Steve Jobs loses one and wins one, Apple enters the TV biz, and a Macworld Expo preview...

Hello from Pasadena, CA, is Andy in town?
- George Mag
I won my Fantasy Football League and I am considering buying a Motorola Droid today. I have an iPhone 3GS but I think the Verizon network is faster than AT&T on 3G.
- George Mag
will it be a good thing or a bad thing that apple wont be at macworld?
- Aaron
Macworld was always a fringe event, Apple is mainstream now and CES is a a mainstream event.
- George Mag
Funny how they throw out the Red Carpet for TWiT now we are the biggest name at the conference ;)
- Mark
I don't think MacWorld ever had a live feed except for Apple's Keynote, they made too exclusive.
- George Mag
yeah but 99.9% of apps will not make the big money
- Mark
why is this news that a small number of the millions of developers are making big money? its the same for all markets
- Mark
The Killer App for Android has yet to reveal itself.
- George Mag
Tap Tap Revenge also has in-game downloadable content that you pay for. I should know. :(
- Seth
some PC indie developers make millions, some make pennies
- Mark
What true for stocks is true for Apps, Pennies add up, its total transactions that count.
- George Mag
I'm ready for the "death" of traditional TV. If a show isn't interactive in some way (ala TWiT) or topical (news, sports), there's no reason to stream it "live". All the standard dramas and sitcoms will go on-demand, per show, with "release dates".
- Ken Sheppardson
And it looks like I totally missed the point. Again :-)

I'm not talking about some alternative to video, I'm just talking about the way the video is delivered.
- Ken Sheppardson
Maybe every 15 minutes you could just say "For those of you who tuned in for the [15|30|60|...] minute version of MBW, thank you for joining us and see you next week"... then just keep going.
- Ken Sheppardson
Ken, the only reason I don't like th Audible ads is since I joined, Andy has cost me a lot of money... Plus I am shopping for a new car in March... I have been looking at a Ford... GAH, GET OUT OF MY HEAD

lol johnny.... you're "one of us... one of us... one of us"

George Mag, have you used the TurnByTurn navigation on android 2.0? voice activated (like ford sync) with street view pictures (with hi-lighted arrows on the road where you need to turn) ... it's pretty killer... the phone itself costs as much as a tom-tom or garmin and you get way way more than those devices offer (for only a small monthly service charge)
- Chris Heath
good show do u think we NEAD A APP SHOW

Did Leo find somebody to take his Mustang to CES? If not, I nominate Paul.
