CES may be pimping out the news but today it is all overshadowed by His Jobness over at Macworld 2007 and from what I have read it is another day of incredibly hyped i<insert item> goodness flowing forth to the masses. The most anticipated item to be sent down from the mount has to be the <gasp>iPhone</gasp> all wrapped up on a totally touchscreen interface powered by OS X.
Engadget of course has the blow by blow of the day’s events being updated realtime as uttered from the mouth of The Jobness hisself; but you’ll have to give that mouse scrollwheel a workout if you want to see the iPhone in all its lushness. So to make your busy life a little easier Google Blogoscope has a shorter story that leads with a picture of the incredible technology called iPhone.
I only have one question – WTF is wrong with having a cell phone that is gawd forbid a phone. You know .. one of those things you hit the numbers on and you know let’s you talk to some-one on the other end? Since when do we need to stuff an over priced operating system into 3x6x1.5 piece of plexiglass covered shell of plastic. I just want a phone and not one that is smarter than I am thank you very much.
I’m not even going to touch the thought of an AppleTV especially if Robert is right and it only does 720p HD. I’ll leave the flaming up to the MacBoys to do which given the comments showing up all over the place it would appear the BBQ has already started.
