I would imagine just using your dock plugged into a wall anywhere in the house while your device gets updated - or maybe the new devices will use some sort of Induction Charge and just lay it down on the mat and it will charge and also sync/update wirelessly.
so i can sync over wifi, which is going to be slow as hell, and i still have to keep my device on a charging pad or in a dock? Why wouldn't i just plug it into the damn computer to speed up the process?

I ordered a 30GB iPod and the standard white 1,83Ghz Macbook on September 2nd, and it said it was due to ship out on the 13th. I therefore thought that they'd upgrade the iPod (more likely than the MB) before sending it to me, but I just got an e-mail saying it shipped today.
Bit bummed that I didn't get the upgrade (well, I can only presume), but at the same time stoked to get my Macbook and iPod more than a week earlier than I first thought!
Just FYI.
Interesting. I ordered a custom black macbook last tuesday, along with a 30GB personalized ipod... got the ipod on thursday, and my macbook isn't due to arrive til the 13th. I wonder if mine shipped today too. Update:Nope, still hasn't shipped. Darn me for custom ordering it... ;-)
I too was hoping to get an upgraded iPod, but hey, no worries. My first iPod and I'm lovin it. Be nice if my MacBook comes with a Core 2 though >.> (wishful thinking)

Well it's a question of if you rather touch screen or physical buttons. And all this has been said before but who cares right? its just a forum. I'm not a fan of anything touchscreen that's not 10". Its just too cramped and all some people want, is a music player. Forget all the iOS and all the games and calculators and gadgets. Sometimes ppl just want a music player. And i haven't broken the screen on my iPod ever. 90% of touch break in the first month. I know a lot of people who I've laughed at so many times because of it. Ive thrown my ipod, it fell off the earphones as i was swinging it, (fill in creative way to try and break something here). And the max is what at the moment? 32 gig? The classic is a heavy duty storage machine for most. It's not hard at all to navigate. It should always go artist\album\song or sometimes if you're like me just listen to a whole album at a time.

I think Mac sales are directly tied to the Halo affect of the iOS devices. The more they sell there, the more people open up to Mac as an alternative. With Lion having more iOS like interfaces, it will make it even more natural for new customers.
IMO it's a combination of many things.
Yes, the idevices, but then comes word of mouth. Nothing is more powerful than when you have a friend or colleague who shows you how easily everything works and integrates.
The learning curve of a Mac is also not steep.
Overall I think the market for non professional users will shift away from desktop machines as the "books" become more and more powerful.
Plus their new advertising slogan
All you need is a Mac and you'll never go back!

In 40 years let's see how Justin Beiber and Lady Bla Bla are selling. Rock on Beatles!
Thos two might get a mention in 40 years for a musical edition of Trivial Pursuit if that is still being updated.
Still nice to see that the Beatles can top the charts.

There is one thing in your setup which breaks my heart......
Actually I might KILL for that Extended Keyboard II.:p

over in england its most likely going to be tescos moaning about iTunes Movies..
I doubt it.
The percentage of DVD buying public in the UK who meet the requirements of:
* High speed broadband
* Modern computer capable of hosting the downloaded films / TV programmes
* Desire to buy yet another piece of electrical equipment to squeeze under the TV
* Desire not to have a physical DVD on their shelf which they can take to friends
* Have access to the full range of titles available in the supermarket, in the highstreet or online at the likes of Amazon from the UK iTMS
is not likely to be high enough to worry the likes of Tesco.

In Brazil any import has about 80% in taxes. That is the way to industrialize the country and make people and companies build the products "in house".
Building the iPad there would be a very good move since for the huge population and cheap professional labor.

If i compared the high end MacBook to the high end 15" MacBook Pro, would these be the only notable differences?

Very creative. Nice color too.
Nothing nearly as amazing as some of the pictures in the thread, but it's what I have. First attempt at HDR.

If this is the theme this year then it looks like wireless is the main product announcements. Unless they want to hide any reference to multi-touch.

This just proves how idiotic humanity is. These songs have been available in multiple formats for over 40 years, but only now, since they are offered in a lossy digital file, do people buy them.
yes!
because EVERYONE has custom IEMs and pro level studio monitors hooked up to their professional amps in their phones, cars, gym headphones....jk no they don't.
Protip: Some people just wanna listen to the music. They don't care about the nuances removed by going to MP3 or an otherwise lossy format because their equipment is probably less than adequate to accentuate the difference anyway.

That is if America is under immediate threat, hence Bush's big case about WMDs before invading Iraq. America was under no threat from Libya. The President cannot simply go to war because he feels like it. That is definitely not a power he has by the Constitution but it is a power he'll take nonetheless.
This was my impression as well. If correct, Obama has no business doing what he's done--right, wrong, paid for or not. Personally, I'm glad somebody's stopping Gaddafi from acting unchecked--but that doesn't excuse circumventing the constitution to do so.
That said, if the President does have the authority to call for such action irrespective of a clear and present danger to the security of the USA, then more power to him.

Maybe it had nothing to do with money at all. Maybe "wife said no" because hubby is obsessed with gadgets and the Internet, and therefore pays no attention to wife, kids, dog or fish.
That said, Apple may not have necessarily helped with family by sending it back to hubby for free. All they did was undermine the wife's better judgment.
Are you the wife? :pHilarious!

And some of us are eternally grateful for that... :)
Get the accessory for extra functions... :rolleyes:
How would the built-in tuner make the iPod worse? Don't want to use it? Then don't. And what if you want a tuner AND some other missing feature? Can you stack accessories to the iPod? Would it look nice?
That said, I AM planning to get that 80GB iPod :). Although that Black Nano looks gorgerous as well....

^^^ Awesome for 6400 ISO! Looking forward to more shots from Sat. if you have them. :)
Thanks so much! Yea, I'm very impressed by the high ISO, although I think the snow might be helping it blend a bit.
I wish I spent more time consciously framing shots, and waiting for the right moment to snap pictures. This photo I think would have been much better if I waited for those two boys to leave the frame, and if I didn't cut her legs off.

firewire 800 also. nice :)
Why 1394b at 800 Mbps when eSATA at 3000 Mbps is available?
Apple missed the boat on the external storage front here.... It had a chance to be a leader, but instead is still pushing 1394.

Several members have voiced their disapproval over the Mac Pro's exclusion of Front Row and Photo Booth. However, Jobs did say that 10.5 would include "the complete package." He then went on to say that Boot Camp, Front Row, and Photo Booth would be included in the OS. So my question is this: How will one use Front Row on the new Mac Pro?
-Squire
There are five possibilities, in order of (to my mind) decreasing likelihood:
1. New displays will come out by then with both IR and iSight
2. A new iSight will come out by then with built-in IR
3. A little USB device providing IR will become available.
4. A slight update to the Mac Pro will come out by then incorporating IR; PhotoBooth will require the iSight.
5. It won't work on Mac Pro.
EDIT: Missed mwswami's earlier post with some similar comments. Sorry.
