- last's 3 times longer for the "average" user

- can't have two batteries incase one runs out

- if your laptop craps out you either have to chunk it or send it to apple -- waste of time

Well in my case I never had to replace a battery in my laptop (when I was in university I used to drain my battery daily...)

It's a great MobileMe service IMO!

Maybe MobileMe is useful in the end :p I mean, I know it's great and everything, the interface looks awesome, the integration with iPhones, Macs, facebook I think, youtube I think, Mail, etc. but I always thought paying 100 for this was useless :-\

I'm wondering what's the frequency of the updates in this "Find my iPhone". If it's like once per minute, it'd drain the battery for nothing, if it's once per hour, you could get out of town easily with someone's iPhone.

As someone who generally enjoys Apple events (and products), this is boring as hell. So was the last one they did. Steve Jobs makes a world of difference.

They need to start just sending press releases like a normal company is this is all the new stuff they have to announce (IMO).

You mean, the guy is boring, or the products? I find the keynote really interesting so far, on the products' side. It's exactly what I thought it was, nothing more nothing less, except for a new iPhone but this is going to be true in like 10 minutes :p

Snow Leopard blew me away so far with the statistics, the small MacBook introduction at the beginning just to tease us, a recap of iPhone OS 3.0 software features... they invited many people to speak (this is called diplomacy for a company :)) What are you asking?

    • I wonder how many are laid off for cost savings, and this being blamed on AI to make it sound less scary and bad, for a more positive "modern, with the times" spin for investors? Because Oracle is down 14% the past year. We're looking at a company struggling here. If AI would actually be working out so well for them that they can do massive layoffs, surely this would've been reflected the past year in their stock value?
    • AI is the beginning, wait until real robots replace more jobs, specifically jobs that require physical work.
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it by Hamid Ganji There’s no question that AI has become the hottest trend in workplaces, and every company is trying to adopt AI-driven solutions across its operations. While some industry leaders repeatedly say AI won’t lead to massive layoffs, recent data suggest that AI is actually one of the main reasons some companies are reducing their workforce. According to Oracle’s annual regulatory filing, the company has laid off about 21,000 employees, or 13% of its workforce, amid increasing AI adoption. “The adoption and deployment of AI technologies across our operations have resulted, and may continue to result, in reductions to our workforce,” Oracle said in the filing. The software giant now has approximately 141,000 full-time employees, a notable decrease from 162,000 during the same period last year. Restructuring expenses, including severance payments, cost Oracle $1.84 billion in fiscal 2026. Additionally, around 49,000 Oracle employees were based in the U.S., while approximately 92,000 were employed internationally. Like many other companies, Oracle has fully embraced AI and concentrated much of its efforts on the technology. The company is also a key participant in the United States’ $500 billion Stargate Project, which aims to build multiple AI data centers across the country. When it comes to AI adoption and its impact on the workforce, opinions remain divided. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, whose company has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the AI boom, recently said in an interview that attributing job cuts to AI is a “lazy” narrative. “The narrative that connects AI to job loss, for many of the CEOs that are doing it – it is just too lazy. AI has just arrived, how is it possible they're already losing jobs?” Huang said. However, statistics and recent reports tell a different story. According to Layoffs.fyi, 196 tech companies have laid off about 119,800 employees so far this year. Reducing staff and replacing roles with AI agents could become one of the most significant trends in the job market in the years ahead.
