Now that I'd had a few hours to think about all the announcements from Apple at yesterday's special event, here are some random musings about them.
Despite rumors of the iPod shuffle's demise, it lives on. For now. I still think that its days are numbered, now that the nano has gotten so small. Eventually, I think we'll see a 2GB nano replacing the shuffle entirely.
Hmmm, the new nano trades its camera for a touchscreen. Is that a good swap?
The iPod classic is still around, but received no update. As soon as the iPod touch reaches 128GB of capacity (it's only half that right now) you can bid adieu to the classic, which Apple seems to regard as the ugly ducking in the iPod line-up.
The new iPod touch sounds great, but I was hoping for a 128GB version now. And if the teeny nano can have an FM radio feature, why not the touch? Yes, that's right, I want it all and I want it now!
As for the Apple TV update, overall, I think it's a great step forward. Netflix integration means one less box in my home entertainment center set-up. But only 720p high-def!? C'mon, Apple I want "real" high def -- as in 1080.
I was also hoping to see FaceTime for the Apple TV. I think it will arrive eventually (it seems a natural fit) -- and for the Mac and PC, as well.
I'm slightly -- but only slightly -- perturbed that you can only rent movies and TV shows from the iTunes Store now. That makes sense for the new Apple TV (which has no storage). But why can't I buy a movie or TV show on my Mac, which does have sufficient storage. The rent-only option sounds like a move backward.
On the other hand, since there are simply rentals at the iTunes Store now, most folks will continue to buy movies on DVD and Blu-ray. So there's no longer any reason for Apple not to include support for Blu-ray playback on the Mac. Right, Steve?
iOS or Mac OS X? The new Apple TV is running an A4 processor so it must be running a version of iOS (which is, of course, a version of Mac OS X, so it's all a bit confusing.)
Will there be any sort of softball update for current users of the Apple TV that would offer any of the features of the new incarnation?
The High Dynamic Range Photo feature of iOS 4.1 sounds very cool, as does the upcoming AirPlay feature.
It's great that iOS 4.1 AND 4.2 are going to be free updates for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch users.
Overall, Investors seemed pleased with the new announcements. Apple shares were up 2.85%, to $250.03, in late afternoon trading Wednesday.

I've been wearing the rolex submariner blue for a month, and I really like watch winder. It's a stainless steel divers watch
ap royal oak that is supposed to be water resistant to 200 meters, and has a screw-down crown watch bands replacement, and pusher button to help maintain the water resistance watch winder. The chopard ladies watch is beefy, but isn't so large that Chopard Classic looks like a hockey puck. The face is a rich looking dark blue that appears to be glazed or lacquered. Chopard Copacabana The hours are marked with very clear digits at the 6, 9 and 12 o'clock positions chopard happy watch, and inward pointing spear shaped markers at all the other hour positions, and each marker is slightly raised above the surface of the dial, luminenscent and surrounded by a thin border of chrome metallic finish. The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms and minute hands are big and easy to read and are luminescent with the same chrome border as the hour markers.The raymond weil geneve is easy read. The glow of the hands in the dark is fair, but not great. The Rolex DateJust Automatic hand is too thin for me, but the tip is finished in rolex milgauss black with a hair-thin elongated arrowhead pointer. The breitling bentley watches Orient trademark emblem of lions surrounding a shield with an 'O' is small, but nicely finished and adds to the overall rich impression of the dial. The
Breitling Avenger Watches is mineral glass - scratch resistant, but not scratch proof gaqoniag.
One feature I especially like about cartier mens watches is the day and date display. It's useful, and large enough to be read mens cartier roadster easily.
Among watch afficiados, the cartier santos watches is referred to as the "Pepsi" model. The reason cartier gold watch is the red and blue color scheme on the
chanel watches whitewatch bezel franck muller 5850 is remeniscent of a Pepsi bottle cap fendi watches for women. The rotating bezel is unidirectional, clicks, and moves smoothly without Franck Muller Casablanca undue effort.
The pusher button omega de ville quartz at the two o'clock position is unusual. All omega gold watch
does is change the day of the week. The omega seamaster planet ocean replica around the omega seamaster james bondbutton has to be loosened before the day can be changed. The classic omega seamaster day ring could have been bilingual with English and Spanish (or any other language) day names, but on my speedmaster professional, Orient chose to use English for both day names. breguet marine watches The difference is that one set of day names also has a number associated with the day name bvlgari men watches. e.g. Mon1, Tue2 . .
