Apple has a tendency to slowly release critical features overtime. I wonder if they will do that for the Apple TV but really they failed to make it very interesting by not loading it up. I am very intriqued to see the reviews for the Nano. Perhaps that interface really will work! iPod Touch is a clear win

I've seen a video of the Nano and it looks very hard to use, but, I guess I'll try one out at the Apple Store and see what its like. I hope that they to send an update to the Apple TV... I'd buy one if it had apps, and lower prices!

Local Observations

While working on this, I decided that an LDL wasn't necessary to have so I changed it to a bar for the ad/watches/warnings crawl. 



Current Conditions screen in Action:
My Version of the HD IntelliStar Preview (HD Quality - 720p)

Pretty awesome!

Amen. Here are my thoughts

1. iPod Touch- Decent upgrade
2. iPod Nano- Lame. Sorry I can not see a UI like that being great to navigate.  Touch screens aren't the answer to everything
3. iPod Shuffle- Its like a time warp! After Apples failed buttonless design they went back to what people liked and bought.
4. Apple TV- Complete Fail. Its a Roku box with LESS features! Big miss on Apple to actually make this product interesting. Could have had apps or so much more.
5. iOS Updates- Good.
6. iTunes. WTF! Same old clunky interface. I would have thought by version 10 they would have done some big changes. Nope. Instead we get a lame social network services that is walled preventing you from linking it to Facebook or Twitter.

I really have to agree with Martin here. I was looking really forward to the updates, but disappointed by some things.
The new iTouch is absolutely amazing. I just pre-ordered mine!
The nano looks interesting, but I wouldn't buy it. The fake bezel is just ugly.
Shuffle = back to basics
Apple TV is something I was excited for. Not anymore. No apps, no storage, and I see no point in it right now.
iOS updates look awesome. I can't wait to try it out on my new iPod.
iTunes 10 = pointless. Ping looked cool, till I found out that Facebook integration wasn't there. (It was in the beginning, but Apple didn't have permission from Facebook, so they shut down their access.)

Those are my thoughts!
