Wow – Only Apple could do it.
But yesterday Apple fans around the world brought down engadget.com as they blogged live from the Apple press conference at MacWorld.
What is really amazing about the Apple press conference is that they announce products and technologies that are available on the day of the announcement and not 6 months later, for this you have to love them.
On the other had I didn’t see anything that exciting.
- First some new apps for iPhone and iPod Touch – which is cool, but I as a Touch customer have to pay $20!!!! I need to ask why? When it is free to new customers – No Thanks Steve I’ll wait for the SDK and some 3rd party products.
- Second a great update to Apple TV – This is a big step in the right direction but no change in the HW resolution (not yet 1080p) and some restrictions on sharing between ATV, PC and iPod. I’m going to sit this one out for a while and try out Mediashare, VOD and PPV on my HD DVR.
- MacBook Air – Wow this is THIN, but at almost $2,000 for the privilege I think I will go ahead and order my wife a Dell Inspiron 1525 for under $1,000 Sorry Apple I wanted to buy, but I just can’t.
But don’t worry I’m still looking for a new desktop and you are still in the running.
