Hurmoth Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I wouldnt really call this dissapointing, the Iphone is cool, its a good product but costs to much and has a terrible batterylife for the phone...i really think when apple was coming up with this, the "phone part" was as intergral as it should be, this is in no way practicle for a daily phone IMHO 5 hours is no practical for anything. A phone or a MP3 player. 5 hours is nothing. If I bought this as a personal phone and carried it to work with me, it would only make it through half my day at work. That's terrible.

macrosslover Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 so can somebody tell me what would be the main differences between apple tv and the windows media center extender devices currently on the market? I don't know much about the apple tv so wondering aside from the dvr like part, what are the other advantages if any it has over windows media center extenders.

MadFerIt Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 No new iPod, no new Mac's.. Just an insanely priced (granted amazing) iPhone with no Canadian carrier announcement? Wtf? I guess Canada means jack **** to these guys :p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kryptonate Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 kind of a bummer this keynote. He only talked about the iPhone. Sure, it's a great device! But a bit more info on Leopard or so would be welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timan Veteran Posted January 9, 2007 Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2007 2007 - The year apple stopped being a computer company... you watch less and less hardware & software updates. They're probaly like whats the point trying to compete with Windows :(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathachew Veteran Posted January 9, 2007 Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2007 5 hours is no practical for anything. A phone or a MP3 player. 5 hours is nothing. If I bought this as a personal phone and carried it to work with me, it would only make it through half my day at work. That's terrible. Agreed. 5 Hours is just plain dumb. Why even bother?

Elliott Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 And this always happens to Apple. Everybody's so disappointed because sites like MacRumors hyped up this crap that wouldn't come true right away. People expect so much more because of other people and it kills Apple's great showing.

NORMAL mac os x apps that run on iMacs run on iPhone?... or like sumfin like universal binary... so it needs just a quick re-compiling and re-editing? -fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way apple presented it it would seem so, but then they add that its 3 devices in 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
