what's good brian Tong hear back from comic-con and I'll be taking you on an exciting adventure inside the world of Apple now the big story this week the ipod touch gets a refresh yes you've been asking for us since it's the last update in 2012 and it finally happened the new ipod touch gets some major upgrades with apples 64-bit a 8 processor the m8 motion coprocessor for activity there 8 megapixel camera and an apple first on any device Bluetooth 4.1 now these are all legit improvements three years later now the ipod touch starts at 199 for the 16 gig model and goes up to 3 99 for the 128 gig model but its biggest change and be prepared for this we say goodbye to the ipod touch wrist strap cheer no I'm not really sad about that but the ipod nano and shuffle get no speck upgrades but all the iPods will be available in the new dark blue hot pink and gold colors we talked about a couple weeks ago now the big thing I'm still waiting for is the new Apple TV but the new york post reports real progress is being made with the major networks for Apple streaming TV service we talked about the difficulties facing Apple to secure rights for live feeds of local channels and it might have been one of the reasons they chose not to show it off at WWDC well according to the report Apple asked the network's to secure the local affiliate rights for them which they have done the affiliates will now in turn get a cut of the streaming profits and talked are now moving forward see how that happens when money's involved reports still say Apple hasn't decided on its pricing for the TV streaming plan ranging anywhere from ten dollars to forty dollars depending on the bundle but this is really the best news of the show to me so far and also a rumor report from the economic Daily News claims that Apple would produce an ipad mini 4 and the larger 12.9 inch ipad pro but will not announce a new iPad air the standard size model they claim the goal is to spotlight the iPad pro and relieve pressure on foxconn from producing three different iPads at roughly the same time now this report also says Apple will ditch the mini 7.9 inch form factor after this year's refresh which doesn't seem to be believable but we will wait and see and let's talk about the recent apple watch sales report from slice intelligence the good news Apple has just sold over 3 million units three months after they started their pre-orders now that easily destroys the reported 720,000 Android wear watches sold in all of 2014 but then the bad news is they also report sales of the new Apple watch have dropped by ninety percent since the opening week of sales yikes now let's think about it from launch day or the first month or so how many more people you know bought an Apple watch after that really for me it's none now I know I've met plenty of you who love your Apple watching others who think it's so-so which brings me back to what I've said all along people are still trying to figure out how wearables can really benefit them and not even Apple has been able to give us a true compelling reason well just yet all right now a lot of times companies like Apple make claims that are sometimes too good to be true for example check out this TV ad that they're running this is an iphone and it comes with something different ninety-nine percent of people who have an iphone love their iphone Wow ninety-nine percent of users love their iphones I don't know that just sounds too good to be true so like any respected journalist we had to put this to the test to find out for ourselves the quad the question is do you love your iPhone yes yes I do I like it I don't love it but I'd like it a lot yes I love life I do yeah I love my iphone i do i love my iphone i love my
