[Official] January 27th Apple Pre-Event Discussion Thread

What's so retarded about it?

Its just not practical. Sure for artists and what not, and a few people would buy it because it looks cool.. but it would just gather dust.

I have never bought into the rumors, and come the event.. I know they will not release one, and everyone will go on to say it will be released on the next event (and it will continue forever).

Here's a quick copy/paste job if anyone wanted quick access this picture as a wallpaper. I know I did.



If you Drag/Drop it is the right size.

soo... what if everybody is wrong, and they have just created some awesome program to create graffiti with your iphone.

I'm always pissed that they make the keynotes on school days, so I come home and look up the results, and there's no dramaticism or anything. I usually just end up being disappointed. I stayed home sick on the last one awaiting the fabled microphone and camera 3G iPod, and what do we get? A camera and microphone nano. WTF, Steve?!

This is why I laugh at people who believe the rumors.

Don't believe (or maybe even worship in your case) rumors.

I'm looking forward to the many groans of disappointment that always come after an Apple keynote as the rumour mill has whipped the geeks and fanboys up into such a frenzy that no amount of new gadgets, add-ons or updates will satisfy.

..and Germany, please don't insult members, however mild your taunts. It's starting to become a far too regular feature of your posts. Live and let live / let he who is without sin throw the first banana etc. thx

Hahaha, I agree with you there stu... Anyway, I'm just gonna follow the Apple Event with an open mind and watch whatever new stuff that will be launched...

It does not matter whether an iTablet (or what the heck they will call it) pops out or not, but what I'm waiting for (hopefully) is the new firmware update!

It'll be extra stingy this year. Last time the rumor mill was in this much of a frenzy was prior to the iPhone launch. Seems a little worst this time around. Everyone from Engadget to Fox News to CNN and everyone in the middle seems to be jumping on every rumor. If they don't release something that meets or exceeds everyone's expectations Apples stock is going to sink like a rock. I really hope that happens so I can buy some dirt cheap apple stock My finger will be on the trigger the entire event ready to buy if it tanks.
