The Wizzard of Woz

Definately some good points made there. The iPhone has a brilliant user interface, no question (I don't own one but I have an iPod Touch), but the best mobile web browser in the world is worthless without a connection fast enough to feed it content at a bearable rate. 

The strict 24 hour rental issue bothers me too. Why not restrict it to number of play throughs instead? 

But criticism of the quality of YouTube footage? Last time I checked it was all awful, why would Woz expect the Apple TV to suddenly turn it into high quality?

AirBook?

You took your own quote out of context, El Lizardo. The point of that statement was to point out that there are relatively few things one can accomplish with the stripped down features of the AirBook. SO little, that there seems to be little or no market to sell to, according to Wozniak's opinion. Point being, the start-up, R&D, and production costs will spell a loss for Apple in the end.

I think

that he wasn't looking for suggestions. I think he was commenting on the lack of industry standard options on a premium product. If you want a portable computer which is lacking DVD and a removable battery there are several very nice options which don't cost anywhere near the Air.

MacBook?

"the lack of a DVD drive, missing Ethernet networking port, relatively small 80GB hard drive and the inability to swap the battery, were just too irritating"

Perhaps he should buy a MacBook then? Last time I checked, they hadn't been discontinued.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
