Steve Jobs: "we're busy finishing new products"

medopal · 22nd July 2008, 09:24

The most attracting sentence in all this Gizmodo article is the line were SJ says: "we’re busy finishing several more wonderful new products to launch in the coming months".

The article in all is great and holds good news, but SJ reveals that new products are coming out, then this is something new in Apple ideology.

Anyways, lets start expecting

i really feel a Mac Tablet could be coming soon.

, it wont be powerful device, maybe something like Eee PC just for browsing the net and reading emails.

OR maybe a gaming console

something like Wii, that would be a wowwer, but naa i dont think Apple will go in the game consoles anytime soon.

OR it could be something software related!! maybe

He may be talking about the new MacBook Pro.

I doubt Steve Jobs will go into the game consoles business any time soon.
It did it once, and it was a major flop.
And going there seriously contradicts his current business model.
Heck, he can't/won't get games on the Mac.
We've been promised games a long time back, and nothing decent has shown up.

Im sure the new MBP is in his considerations, but thats an update not a new!! we want to see something new

Yeah!!
Like a brain controlled Super Mouse, with built in Anti Brain Freeze, laser guns, and teleportation unit.
I usually teleport on my own, but it gets lonesome.
So I start blasting ants with my eyes on the way to keep myself busy.
But it would be nice if my Mac could do that for me.

Oh, and a hotdog machine too.
I like hotdogs. :P

:| *walks away slowly from fang*
i was wondering if you've had ur "happy" pills today fang

im hoping for a tablet too, and i guess a gaming console wudn't be all that bad, but that is probably the most unlikely thing they would go for... they could be introducing their own line of games tho, only for macs mayb? why dont they ever give away anything ever :P

I'd go for teleportation anyday. But then again, i am too lazy to wake up for office in the morning

What if apple is in works for a new iPod ? ipod Touch 2nd Gen ? or maybe an iCar that can be controlled and accessed via the iphone / itouch remote app

? sweet !

Tablet for me too please, like a large iPhone but with full Mac OS X.

medopal · 23rd July 2008, 09:39

teleport

, nice one fang, that would be useful to go from AUH to Dubai hehehe, we can attend all the meetings easily then

anyways, he didnt mention what kind of products, it could be updates to hardware or maybe new software apps who know!!

just a note, Apple is good in "revolutionizing" things, i mean maybe there is something we use now but not effectively, and when Apple gets in the business then everyone will need it, i dont know what the next thing, but there is many options. Like say 3D glasses, or portable ebooks, or maybe just small hardware to interface/control everything Bluetooth in home (that will help iPhone remote to become the next universal remote)!!!

Mac Tablet with Blu-Ray or MBP with Blu-Ray....any of the two will be so suweeeeet!

noixe · 23rd July 2008, 12:56

about the iCar, there is already one tht can be controlled by your mobile, the Megan Coupe', it was on Top Gear this episode... alhto it's only a concept, but i guess it is possible if it's been put into concept
