New clients to Apple that are looking for a TZ alternative, will love it.
That 10% will freaking love it.
The other 90% of the market will not compare it to the TZ and call it overpriced and under performing.
Mmmm...that 10% of the market is pretty important I think. I think we're going to see this laptop in a lot of places being carried by folks that haven't gone mac before. Even if they all end up running bootcamp...
This thing is a status symbol laptop you can actually live with.
Big let down outside of the Time Capsule. Now I'm going to return the Extreme I just picked up 2 weeks ago. Hopefully it doesn't have the same problems.

I think the movie rentals could be about a dollar cheaper across the board.
HD's at $5.00? c'mon really?
Time Capsule sounds sweet though, It's definitely a must purchase with the Air. bringing the cost up for a new lacking laptop to $2k. That's not including the new Mac Pro i'll have to purchase with it (hehe)
Does anybody know anything about the audio on the air? I didnt see any speakers. Is it headphones only? Guess I can run it through that new fancy time capsule

So basically we got a very short keynote filled with niche products.
consumer electronics niche products, at that.
Feel free to elaborate. This "is" a discussion board.
Geez, this guy is madder than me.

Tell Samsung to lower their SSD prices. The SSD is a $1000 upgrade.
Apple has to compare it to the TZ.
Guess what?

Sony TZ - $3,699.99 w/64GB SSD.
Sony aint a happy camper today. Neither is Toshiba or any other high end laptop maker.
Apple is doomed.
No. The stock will rebound considerably after the earnings report.
(Wait until it dawns on them that the battery isn't removable)

Yes. JAPAN will be thrilled.
I am a bit disappointed but the MWSF was not that bad.
iPhone software update was cool
AppleTV 2.0 is great.
Movie rentals very cool with all the major studios
MacBook Air, neat, but I do not need that, so I won't buy it.
Time capsule is very cool
For me the disappointing thing was:
no iPhone 16gig, I don't understand why not.
I agree that overall the keynote was not earth shattering, but Apple has a pretty good line up of services and products now.
ACD's and new design MacBook Pro's might be coming as earlier as April at NAB. The worst case for ACDs at WWDC.
Stay positive!
