Yet another Apple event: The Thread

Added 2010-09-01, 12:58 PM | 69 Replies

Steve Jobs is wearing a black turtleneck and jeans.

HDR photographs built into iOS 4.1. Just when you thought that horse was already beaten and dead in 2008!

"Epic sword battles", but no giant enemy crab. For whatever reason, Apple's Game Center matches hardcore players with casual players.

Wireless printing on iPad and Jiggle mode. Jiggle mode.

The iPod Shuffle. With buttons again. Yawn.

The iPod nano. Without buttons. Yawn.

The iPod touch. Thinner and more bullshit nobody uses. Yawn.

New iTunes. Shitty logo. Steve Jobs discovers SOCIAL NETWORKING.

New Apple TV. Smaller. No purchases, only rentals. Told, kind sir. Told.

Coldplay? More like Toldplay.

What a disaster.

So... what new innovation is in store today?

A phone that actually makes calls and doesn't drop them?
A ebook reader that isn't clunky and awkward to use?
A balanced computer on a competitive price.
Or the usual white plastic useless stuff that only helps to masage the users ego and is shaped like a butt-plug?

Apple is not a company. they would give everything out for free if they could. But because of microsoft they can't. Steve Jobs doesnt care about money he just wants everyone to be happy. I was actually crying when Chris Martin played and I thought about how much apple cares about me

WOW IPOD NANO COMES WITH A CLIP! OH WOW IT'S SO WORTH $150!

My $20 Sansa Clip has one. It came out before the iPod Touch Nano. Oh yeah and it sounds better than an iPod too.

Looks like Roku XR beats the shit out of it in the services department, while Pop Box beats it in the supported formats department. But at least they have $0.99 TV shows from Fox and ABC...

Oh wait, more told from Amazon:

iPad nano = iPod Shuffle with a screen.

iPod touch = most recent iPhone minus the phone.

"New" iTunes = still the same unresponsive piece of shit.

And like usual their flash-memory based shit is over priced.

Next time it will be the "device formally known as the iPod Nano, without buttons & now with VIDEO"!

It seems retarded to call it a "Nano," but calling it a "Shuffle" with a screen isn't any better.... Should we start calling it the "iPod Postage-stamp"™?

TV-out aside. I hear people with iPhone 4s bragging about how they can play 720p. What good is that if the resolution of the phone is less than 720?

>hurr I don't need it so it has to be shit... Until Apple does it.

I keep seeing such time and time again.

Before the iPod Video people said no one would want a mp3 player that plays video.

Back when Creative came up with the Zen Vision the fanboys scoffed at it, saying that no one would want a device to play videos on such a small screen. Then came the video playing Nanos...

Before the iPhone & iPod Touch they said that no one wanted games on their iPods, and that a "smart" phone should only make calls & play music.

Yet I am not surprised at such because that is the same bullshit that Steve and Apple have been selling people all these years.

srsly? why the fuck do you guys hate on apple that much if you dont use it?
even thoug you are talking bad about it, it helps apple to get around the internet and make more costumers, the only way you can "stop" people from buying apple stuff is to not talk about it... at all..... and the info you put on this page about how bad quality apple stuff are.... LMAO, you are soo wrong.. :)
