Apple Event Set for Sept. 9th


Recommended Posts

Yeah i wanted GPS and a Camera, i want those features without selling my soul to a telecom company. (for the iPhone)

that wont happen anytime soon.

why would you need an iphone then? ;) they want to draw a clear line between the two, obviously.

Are they discontinuing the HDD based iPods? or are they simply upping the HD space? Like instead of it being 160GB be 220 GB?

What are the sizes of the new iPod touch?

This is what the new iPod line-up is:

120GB Classic

32GB Touch

16GB Touch

8GB Touch

16GB Nano

8GB Nano

that wont happen anytime soon.

Then they should do it with software developing too considering half the apps want to look for where you are but oops can't no gps in touch.

They discontinued the 160 gb iPod :(

I am thinking he means real i need to buy a new touch features. I actually like the fact that they didnt change too much. Makes me feal better about buying the touch.

Exactly

that wont happen anytime soon.

I dont need an iPhone, but i do appreciate some of it features...

wow guess won't be buying new touch different back design and extra button.. meh bring on the gps in it already :\

How are they going to do gps... you'd have to preload google maps... or have a link where the maps are updated... hence why its only on a cell phone.

both use google maps and if that was the case then they mayaswell just give the flick on all the gps features that attempt to be used under the touch i mean if they are going to do it with the software people don't want half ass'd apps that try use a lacking or very flimsey feature they should just go all or nothing.

both do cache the maps during the session which is the point plus there's obviously plenty of space spare for it.

That would be quite a lot of wasted space just to store maps on there. You're better off having a separate GPS device in that case.

Yes but my gps doesnt act as a music player,pda , and games player also. The ipod touch would be able to do it all.

PS Isnt that how nav units do it now anyway? they have all the maps on them then you buy sd cards to update the preloaded ones. Why would the ipod touch do it any differently.

the touch has wifi.You can also preload them at home .

It does have wifi... but how many times have you been walking around the street or driving down the road and manage to keep the same wifi connection... if you can even find any... you'd be constantly connecting and reconnecting. Not good

And for preloading... I wonder how much space that'd use... especially on maximum magnification... you'd be better off buying a standalone gps.

Exactly, they can do it, but they wont, probably to keep it cheaper than the iPhone.

If only tho...

80GB is now 120GB. 160Gb gone.

iPod touch: 8GB is $229, 16GB is $299 and 32GB is $399

The new touch seems thicker....

Steve said it's thinner.

To be honest, i wouldnt mind using a couple of gigs of my Touch for maps, thats how GPS units do it...

2.1 for the iPhone - ""This is a big update, it fixes lots of bugs. Fewer dropped calls, big battery life improvements. No crashes with Apps. Backing up is faster." Nice."

We'll hold you to that. Steve.

EDIT: That seems like 2.1 is just bug fixes. Oh great.

    • KillerPDF 1.5.1 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.5.1 changelog: Performance Save Flattened PDF now uses multiple CPU cores. Page rasterization is parallelized (PNG encoding runs across cores; the PDFium render step stays serialized since the library isn't thread-safe), so large documents flatten significantly faster while the UI stays responsive (#68). Fixed PDFs that failed to open with "Unexpected EOF" now open (#72). The failure was PdfSharpCore's Flate inflater (SharpZipLib) rejecting the FlateDecode cross-reference stream on multi-revision PDFs - files that open fine in browsers, Acrobat, and Foxit. KillerPDF now detects this and re-opens the file losslessly through PDFium, preserving selectable text. Thanks to @javajon for the report and a detailed reproduction. Grid view renders every page. It was capped at the first 26 pages, so longer documents stopped loading partway through. Tiles also stream in progressively now instead of blocking until the whole document is rendered. Grid Ctrl+Scroll no longer reloads every page when the zoom is already at its limit and nothing would change. Removed a stray horizontal scrollbar (a thin green line) that could appear across the bottom of grid view. Files on UNC / network shares (including the WSL \\wsl$ filesystem) are copied locally before opening, avoiding partial-read failures on network filesystems. Changed Minimum zoom lowered from 10% to 5%, so grid view can pack more columns (helpful for wide/landscape pages) and single-page view can zoom out further.
