I hope there's an iWork '09, because Pages and Numbers could use some improvements.

9:54AM "The new Keynote remote -- it's an app on your iPhone or touch, and it talk wirelessly to your Mac. If you have it set up in a vertical mode it shows your slide, and horizontal, it shows two, and you just flick your finger to move through." Huge applause!

Ahhh finally.

[BajiRav]

Kind of explains why Steve is not doing the keynote this time. :p

[KoL Veteran]

Bit ZzzZzz, software looks good but where's the hardware??

yeah I agree, One hour of software is enough.

[.Kompressor]

man.. this is horrible.. no live feed for me.. Or at least the one from chris doesn't work.. wonder if there is another one out there somewhere that gets around the firewall :) and no hardware yet.

[Rudy]

remote should be free with iWork09 and full screen pages is cool (pretty much like darkroom (is that the right name?? it was a nice text editor....but a little bit too basic))

[gian]

Jason Chen:

In Numbers ?09, ?we?ve focused on adding features that customers have told us they wanted.?

9:59 am ON Jan 6 2009

Jason Chen:

And of course, 40 new themes. Themes seem to be really present in every app Phil is introducing today.

9:58 am ON Jan 6 2009

Jason Chen:

Other connectivity features hook up with MathType and EndNote, two mathy apps.

Jason Chen:

Then there?s Mail merge with Numbers, which can connect with tables and lists in Numbers.

Jason Chen:

Second, dynamic outlines. In Pages ?09, you can start in outline view before you actually start writing, letting you reorganize thoughts and seconds.

9:57 am ON Jan 6 2009

Jason Chen:

Next, Pages (Apple?s Microsoft word). There?s a fullscreen view to make everything else disappear, focus in on what you?re doing and tune out everything else.

9:56 am ON Jan 6 2009

B. Lam:

pages fullscreen view:

[duritz]

[saxondale.]

Yeah. It has the same importance as Office for Windows.

[TruckWEB]

iWork is important, guys.

Not really..... I've got something else than iWork....

[Prosidius]

I fully expect this to be a ploy on Phils part to bore us for the first hour, then amaze us for the 2nd.

[Jase]

pfff what a joke... apple stop trying to get money from us for every thing we do!

Now get to the iphone OS and iMac updates:P

Are you serious? It's a smart way of earning extra $ (Y)
