Steve's Big Day

I was on the edge of my seat for about a week anticipating the newest iPod introduced last Wednesday. At first, I wanted everything they had introduced: video iPod, new iMac, iTunes 6, and FrontRow. I was administered a chill-pill and gave them all a few days thought. The new iPod is a great start. Much like the iPod nano, It will scratch. For a device that is for playing videos, this may not be the greatest. The selection on iTunes movie store is so limited right now that it is not worth my 300 bucks. Once the O'Reilly Factor, Commander in Chief, Family Guy, The Simpsons, South Park, news clips, and other great shows start making appearances (especially for less of a fee), I will give the new iPod more consideration. The new iMac is not for me, but will definitely sell well. FrontRow is something great but, like the iPod, can be improved upon. I don't use my computer for watching movies nor is it in my living room. If they include a way to watch tv, more importantly cable, on the iMac, they'll have another customer and I can sell my TV.
What few are reporting on is the new attire of Steve in his keynote. No blue jeans! No sneakers! Steve! What are you doing?! Losing the jeans is a slippery slope. Next you'll be wearing a red polo, and one day you'll be wearing a green leisure suit with fish swimmin' in platform shoes. Don't let us down. Put back on the Levi's.
