The features that people want but iTunes audio and video does not yet support:HDTV, not supported yet but supported by Apple TV at 720p. Logically Apple will update iTunes video content at some point in time to support this. Also, when technology an…

With estimates of 110 million iTunes users, if Apple is able to gain just 10% of that market the first year then this is significant. Heck even 5% of that market would make this a success.

The countdown has been on since the last update to the hardware/software you are looking at...but more specifically since January 1 for this year.

If the content is available for the right price from iTMS with reliable download times then people will use it to purchase it legally through Apple, and those people are going to be more likely to get an Apple TV, or another iTunes supported way to …

I think that the lack of Mac updates is logical since Intel only has one new chip that they have released since last summer, the Quad Core. This means that the update to the Mac Pro to a quad core is possible any time now, as long as it does not rel…

Another thought on the video of the future front. There looks to be an online distribution revolution coming up. In a way it is already here with pod casting and youtube. More is coming with internet TV distribution. At the same time there is a new …

The two things that will make the Apple TV a success is content and ease of use. On the content side they are working in the right direction. They need to update their library to 720p and add more, especially new releases. It would be great if they…

I would go ahead and get it now, or get a new one when they are released. There is no guarantee that Apple will add 10.5 onto the purchase price of a refurbished computer that did not come with it originally. I think, and I'm typing on a refirb iMac…

Multi-touch, pen or hybrid. As a designer if I can't use a stylus then it is a feature that has extra cost that I would prefer not to have. A stylus and a mouse are more accurate and better suited for writing and drawing than you finger is, and mult…

Minimum of 20 days late in shipping. There is noting special about the hardware, or the software really as far as we know. Everything that they are doing with this device (and a lot more) has more or less been done by apple already in existing softw…
