Tweets for Today
- 10:20 2 hours until WWDC keynote, aka "Christmas in June". Packed laptop & USB cable so I can install new iPhone OS if released. #
- 10:36 Sweet. Boss is gone for the day. That makes keeping up with keynote news easier. #
- 11:41 Feel like I should have some popcorn or something for the big show. #
- 13:05 Apple notification service down bitching will be the new Twitter is down bitching. You heard it here first. #
- 13:06 ANS is the first interesting thing this keynote... #
- 13:09 September for ANS? Early July for iPhone 2? Ouch. So much for Christmas in June. More like day after Thanksgiving... #
- 13:11 $9.95 upgrade for Touch owners still sort of bullshit, but at least it's cheap. #
- 13:29 Yes, the "me" in mobile me does look eerily similar to the "me" in Windows ME. #
- 15:23 New iPhone may be .02 in thicker, .1 ounces lighter? #
- 16:38 Car blogs are picking up on the iPhone GPS story; game blogs are picking up on the games from the App store. Drawing lots of attention! #
- 16:39 Engadget sez: "It's certainly thicker feeling" and "the plastic back didn't feel too cheap. In fact, it felt pretty solid". #
- 16:49 Bad news for users. And, can't believe Apple would let revenue selling go. Seemed like a cash cow: twurl.nl/64kdej #
- 16:49 I didn't even consider GPS companies making iPhone software. Good way to stay relevant: twurl.nl/esc7cs #
- 16:52 Thought: Apple Push Server doesn't solve all background app problems. For example, a GPS app couldn't keep track of where you've been. #
- 17:32 News for iPhone users keeps getting worse. So much for activating your own phone: twurl.nl/cpgmrb #
- 17:44 Dear AT&T: adding the adjective "attractive" to something does not make it so: twurl.nl/q2r6g8 #
- 17:49 So $400 iPhone - $200 subsidy + $240 extra data cost over course of a 24 month contract=$440 iPhone. Way to slash those prices! #
- 17:54 Sorry to those of you reading this who are bored by Apple news/analysis. But I find this absolutely fascinating. #
- 18:01 Good that they're finally bringing native Exchange support to OS X Snow Leopard. Hate for the Mac to be behind the iPhone... #
- 18:03 Haven't yet seen anything definitive about PowerPC support vs. Intel only in Snow Leopard. #
- 18:20 The post-war life of US bombshells in Laos (TMN again): twurl.nl/3z5grk #
- 18:27 So Apple's new Mobile Me synchronization service is $99/year. I already pay $29 to sync iCal with Google Calendar and could get rid of that. #
- 18:28 So $70 to have my personal data instantly instantly synced to my iPhone (and maybe work computer) is potentially reasonable. #
- 01:54 More bullshit PR speak from AT&T: twurl.nl/sw7ygb #
