what's good brian Tong here to welcome to the Apple by for everything good and bad inside the world of Apple right after their latest keynote in San Francisco and there is plenty to talk about so let's just recap the highlights and we were pretty much on the money with what we expected to see but there were still a few surprises first up OS 10 Mavericks is available as a free download right now free probably the best news of the keynote and support some max as far back as 2007 running snow leopard or later you really can't beat free unless it's that taco from the fair that's still giving you them indigestion that's too much information right and all right now I think the big surprise was the name of the new fifth-generation iPad at the keynote Apple's calling it the ipad air I know it almost sounds like a bad joke but this thing weighs only one pound packs an a7 processor improved Wi-Fi shares design cues from the ipad mini there's no touch ID and no major revamp to the camera because people really shouldn't be taking pictures with their ipads anyways and don't be this person now the ipad air goes on sale november the first starts at 499 for a 16 gig Wi-Fi version and i'm looking to get one after selling my third gen ipad new that's now the ipad old old to jen's later you guys got to figure that out now look at this video clip spin two classrooms boardrooms expeditions even to space and we can't wait to see where you take it next introducing lighter more powerful ipad air I think it would have really made more sense to call it the iPad pencil and I like that name better now the other no-brainer that had to happen was the announcement of the ipad mini with retina display that also sports an a7 processor improved Wi-Fi and the same design it sounds great right but the retina display mini starts at 399 for a 16 gig Wi-Fi version and will be available later in November but what sticks out like a sore thumb is when you compare the mini retina to something like the new Nexus 7 that starts at 229 now Apple is positioned as a premium product I get that but they're smoking something with that pricing and there's a reason they're losing tablet market share 399 seriously that's a bad apple and the iPad that has stood the test of time so far the ipad 2 apples still selling it for 399 two plus years later no one should buy this and you're actually better off getting a refurbished ipad 4 from the apple online store for 379 instead of a new ipad 2 now we also saw new macs the macbook pro retina line gets a revamp with new Haswell processors integrated intel iris graphics and improved battery life the 13-inch will get 9 hours of battery life in the 15-inch will get 8 hours but Apple typically is very modest with those numbers now they're available now and the 13-inch starts at 12 99 while the 15-inch starts at 1999 apple also showed off the new mac pro with its beefy next-gen Xeon processors dual GPUs and more this is a powerhouse supporting 4k video on up to three monitors I know it's not for everyone but high-end graphics professionals will be drooling over this one even if it's at two thousand nine hundred ninety nine dollar entry-level price point now software's also focus at the keynote with new versions of ilife and I works they'll be free when you purchase either a new mac or iOS device the iwork suite gets to redesign across all apps iCloud compatibility and gives multiple users the ability to access and edit document iphoto and imovie get revamped with new tools and effects and sharing options and GarageBand gets what Apple calls its biggest update ever with up to 32 audio tracks in real time aberration and there have been some updated redesigns for Apple's iOS apps including podcasts thank you find my iphone and the itunes trailers app now you guys there are always highlights of a keynote from Craig federighi perfect hair to Eddie Q's dojo master attire and I'm still not sure who allowed that to happen but Phil Schiller really won hands down with this one so if you're a fan of the Black Knight as I am you can watch the entire trilogy on one charge whoa whoa wait wait are they making a fourth movie in the Batman sirs that I don't know about he didn't say the black night did he so if you're a fan of the Black Knight as I am you can watch the entire trilogy on one charge yes he did and why are you clapping for that are you all dum-dums too if you're a closet Batman fan you don't have to hide it and if you called the Black Knight you really do now that's not even a bad apple Phil I'm giving you a black apple and the only black knights I know about are the one in monty python or Martin Lawrence and that was not a good movie so I've heard all right let's get to our winners of our colored mophie juice pack cases from last week we asked you what you would do to win one of these sweet cases now a lot of you freaks said you would do things naked or give me massages but I decided against picking you so congrats to our Twitter winners Melvin Shannon senior and sumeet cut car who wants one because I bit on it our email winners are maria palermo and steve from rosemead california who wrote in with a girl I'm dating also has the same last name as yours and she's a die-hard Apple fan and just bought an iphone 5 recently i think i could definitely impress her with this case and hopefully we can go a step further in our relationship you know what I mean I don't know what you mean but i hope this case helps out and i hope she doesn't watch this show and she better not be my sister all right congrats
