Some interesting new gizmos from the Apple Event

Overall the event was pretty interesting. The iPods were interesting. The Touch gets a camera and the retina display as I’m sure everyone was expecting.

Let’s see what happens at the Apple Event

It’ll be interesting to see what kind of changes the iPod Touch will get for its next iteration. A camera being added is mildly interesting but not really worth an upgrade.

I’m wondering what else might be in store as an upgrade. However, once the new Touch 4 comes out, I’m seriously considering getting another iPod Touch, but a 64GB model. I think the price is going to drop nicely and it would be a good time to grab another one. One would be nothing but games. The other would be nothing but music. Perhaps that’s overkill, I’m not sure. I’m still waiting for my chance to strike on an iPad. The long shipping times and complete lack of availability seems […]
