Watch Steve Jobs (Apple’s CEO) present the latest ‘Special Event’. How many times does he refer to the ‘Apple Brick’?
Note once! However, one brick rumor rumour was actually true and that is that the new Macbooks and Macbook Pro chassis are formed from a solid block of aluminum.
Forget HD television programmes being available to download, forget the new iPhoto-like album display (although a welcome addition), forget the new ‘Visualizer’, Genius is the best new feature to be introduced.
Genius is a neat feature that allow automatic creation of playlists based on the track that is currently selected. These playlists can be refreshed in an instant and saved for later.
Steve Jobs has assured that the information that is collected weekly via the Internet is totally anonymous. Without this assurance I doubt many people would partake in the use of Genius. The information that is used by Apple includes your playlists, track names, ratings and play counts. All of this is combined with other iTunes users’ info to form a massive database of information makes Genius work.
Apple’s special event, Let’s Rock, that was held in San Francisco recently is now available online for all to watch.
Steve Jobs announces the new iPod Nano
The presentation lasts a little over an hour and is worth watching to get details about the new version of iTunes and its new features and how the iPod range has changed.
The speculation is true — Apple CEO, Steve Jobs, has just announced the new iPod Nano. Let’s just say if you’ve seen a mockup or photograph that claimed to be the new iPod Nano then it was genuine.
The 4th Generation Nano has an oval cross-section and a widescreen screen as rumors rumours suggested. The new Nano has a built-in accelerometer to make viewing video, photo and your music collection (via coverflow) much like the iPhone and iPod Touch.
More later (maybe).
