I just wanted to mention this making his
first public appearance since june Apple
CEO Steve Jobs began his let's rock
event in San Francisco on the defensive
about as much rumoured health but he
quickly got down to business we're
introducing itunes 8 the next major
release of itunes itunes 8 now offers
high definition TV shows NBC programming
and a new feature called the genius
button genius is pretty cool let's face
it Apple's got what seventy-three
percent of the market already I mean
adding little features like this just
keeps people on their on their system
the crowd cheered the loudest for the
hardware updates to the ipod nano and
touch it's really really good i think
with the new colors some of the new
features on the nano that that will
still be the primary selling device in
their arsenal and you can now put 30,000
songs in your pocket so it's pretty
amazed it's going to be interesting to
see if the ipod touch really does become
the primary ipod in apple's lineup
that's what they would like that to do
because it's more expensive they make
more money on it and it's frankly more
interesting you know it's a little
computer if i had that much music i
would be really psyched on it i think i
like to manage it on my mac it's no
coincidence Apple's releasing these
upgrades in time for the holiday
shopping season to hopefully add to the
160 million iPods already sold after
Steve Jobs made its ipod hardware
announcements he spent less than a
minute discussing the iphone 2.1
software update which he said should
correct a lot of major bugs including
all those dropped calls I'm Kara Tsuboi
