I dont think people who have jailbroke their iphone can update yet can they?

Wry no HDMI. What's this Micro-DVI business.

Micro-DVI has always been with the laptop range, so it's probably what Apple though as standard for the current generation - most projectors don't have HDMI yet...

Edit: Mini-DVI is what's on the MacBook and Pro range... opps.

 

[benjo plz.]

actually I'd have expected displayport. Mini-Dvi is tiny

 

[Johnny|lucidcomposure]

I just went to apple.com to get it. Its just installing now.

 

[tang0]

no macbook pro updates?

 

[Mr.Clark]

I don't know what apple are playing at. That was pretty poor really on a hardware front.

They're going for thin. If you want power hardware, get a MacBook Pro. If you want Kate-Moss-on-crack thin, get one of these.

*still hoping the price of the equivalent MacBooks will drop soon*

 

[RobH]

Yeah Micro-DVI is a new one on the Macs, my Macbook has a Mini-DVI and that small already.

 

[Immsy]

Doesnt look like it.

 

[tang0]

Doesnt look like it.

bah

was hoping for software updates

 

[DuncyBoy]

Oh, well- no mention of Blu-Ray or changes to the iMac range so it's "As you were" for my plans.

Still no idea about a Mac Mini/Apple TV HTPC set-up so I'll stick with the Shuttle a while longer.

Oh yeah - I forgot that you'd need DVI-I for analogue video. Regardless, it'll need one type of dongle.

I dont want any of them. I already own a 17" powerbook. I want new Cinematic Displays.

I was really hoping for new cinema displays as well or at the very least a price drop on the current ones.

 

[Immsy]

iPod touch new firmware is out, itunes is downloading mine as we speak.

 

[Aspect]

Where's 10.5.2 then?

 

[SizEzE]

Store is down again. The pricing must be wrong on the Apple TV

(here's hoping )
