It would be very interesting to read Lord of the Rings and have the soundtrack playing - synchronised to where you're up to in the book. Or the book with excerpts from the movie.
Or pictures synchronized with an audiobook, or an ebook together with the preferred music from the author. This ads a whole new dimension to everything, Music, text, pictures and movies can all be combined into 1 work of art.

Did the Apple engineers forget to add a music video icon on the left side of iTunes 7? Everthing else is there except music video.

hope they aren't automatic then people will lose their jailbreaks!
def. won't be automatic as people have bandwidth restrictions with their carrier.
also, i wouldn't even mind this being over wifi.

This is a good example of why a tabletop iMac just won't work. The "touching plane" is probably a foot off the surface of the table/desk upon which the computer sits. Which means if your current desk is at a good and proper height for your chair, you're either going to have to sit a foot higher or lower your desk a foot to keep that optimum reach. Doing either of these means your desk is now a foot too low. If you have a pad of paper there, or a cup of coffee, anything- it's going to be a nightmare to keep getting it.
This may work if you built a special table for it and used it standing up, like a kiosk. But then it would only really be useful for goofing off briefly, and not doing anything serious. Who is going to stand for several hours continuously to use the computer?
Touchscreen iMac to me really just sounds like spec-lust and not a practical reality.
An ergonomic nightmare. My body hurts just thinking about it.

For $500 you can buy a MacMini preinstalled with OSX Leopard which will probably (likely) come with virtualization without the need for a Windows partition.
Windows Vista looks more and more like it will totally lose the war against Leopard.
2007 is going to be the year when OSX gains huge momentum over Windows and begins to regain its throne as the most popular OS.

Personally I haven't listened to them much in years, and last month did a retrospective of their stuff (http://www.geardiary.com/2010/11/09/music-diary-retrospective-a-magical-mystery-tour-of-the-beatles-catalog/)... it was interesting since most of my memory comes from the original US LP's my brother owned.
I really don't listen to much pop music ... I mention Pat Metheny as it is about as close to mainstream stuff as I get. So for me they aren't so tired ... certainly less so than the Eminem my older son listens to so much ...
I worded my original poorly, I was speaking of influence and being derivative ... Zepplin is a great example, as whether or not they were good, they were heavily influenced by the Beatles, Who, Jeff Beck group, and so on ... and it shows heavily in their work.

If you think about it, it's not all too surprising that some of these "professionals" are getting so worked up and sulky over this release. The notion that "pro editing" can belong to just about anyone, rather than an exclusive circle of elites, poses an existential crisis. Apple's re-thinking of editing is also a re-thinking of what it means to be "professional". The announcement sheds light on a future in which their "advanced", learned techniques are no longer advantageous. The "industry pros" are facing the plight of impending impotence. It's not something anyone would really openly admit, but I think they're feeling a bit naked, stripped of their status.
Who can blame them for being pissy?
I couldn't agree with you more, oh the poor professionals :(
They know that their days are numbered and so they are turning into big sooky ****s...... Fellas just deal with it.......Adapt or DIE...

Maybe all these rumors of a "squashed iphone 5 mini" are really leaks of the next gen ipod classic? That type of form factor makes more sense considering the way things are headed. Touch screens and all.

I don't know if you like Firefight mode, but they have matchmaking available for that. That way, you aren't competing against other people, so you shouldn't feel too outclassed. And since the max players for that is 4, it finds matches super quick. Maybe give that a shot and see how it goes.
I am still working my way through the single player on legendary but once I am done I'll check out the firefight mode. I really liked a similar mode in Gears of War so I could see myself getting into that.

They should use the new LOVE mix of Tomorrow Never Knows with Within You Without You. The drumming is so cool and it would attract so much attention since although so many have heard the two separate songs, hearing the Mashup of the two is quite stunning and very modern. You should check it out if you have not yet. Amazing sound. Especially in 5.1
I'll totally check that out - but is it something you can download on iTunes?
It'd be a little weird to use a song in an iTunes commercial that can't be purchased there!

Hah. Approaching $4/Gal? It's been four & a half bucks here since forever & we're eyeballing $5/Gal & this is still the US. People who obsess about a dollar a gallon need to get a more efficient car.
Tell that to the soccer moms who insist on driving V8 Suburbans or Powerstroke Diesels.
My buddy's mom drives a V10 Excursion to go grocery shopping.
It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.

I feel so sorry that the Beatles will never get your moey and that their greed made you a thief.:cool:
i have not pirated any music except for the beattles since itunes came out... if you dont give consumers what they want, they will find a way to get it... their own greed bit them in the ass and i dont feel the least bit sorry for them... now they have realized that they missed the boat, and they are crawling back to try to make money... sorry Yoko... you f$#%ed up!!!

If it's just an upgrade for the 5G iPod, I m gonna be disappointed......at myself. I was holding off to replace my aging 3G iPod, and was gonna wait till 6G (full screen). But if it's just about a larger harddrive, i really could have bought the current one loooong time ago.
I'm waiting right there with you. My poor 3G ipod's battery doesn't last very long at all anymore, but I'm not buying a 5.1G ipod just so i can buy a full video ipod later next year. I will continue to wait.

BTW - All the iphones in iPhone commercials are very different than my iPhone. They show a small little photo of the person calling instead of a big full screen photo. Don't know why. It's the same in this ad.
Actually, you can have the photo of the person you are calling show up either way (small as in the ad you are talking about) OR like you currently have (large, taking up the whole screen). Here's how. I will be using your "friend" Bob as an example of the person you want to have a picture show up on your iPhone:
To make it show up small, add the photo of Bob in your Address book contact list by cutting and pasting the image directly into the photo icon spot in Address Book. This will show up only as a small picture when Bob calls (as seen in the ads).
To make it show up large, have a picture of Bob in your photos that will sync up with your iPhone OR just take a picture of Bob with your iPhone. Now assign this photo of Bob as your contact photo.

The iPod touch is quite thin already.. moving some parts around and adding a hard drive in it could make it about as thick as the iPhone but with the capacity of a Mac.. just think of the possibilities..
Reminds me about the Palm LifeDrive.. it's about time a modern device takes it over.

I for one salute Apple in its efforts to ensure a safe computing environment.
And, my salute has NOTHING to do with the fact that my 18 month old and very used iBook battery currently only holds a 10 minutes charge.
:) :) :)
Crossing my fingers I have an unsafe battery...
