Apple iPod/iPhone Presentation

I watched most of the Apple iPod/iPhone products announcement broadcast this morning.

Pretty amazing improvements on the product line … real shock and awe feeling.

Very interesting to see the new iPod capabilities (WiFi, larger hard drives up to 160 GB – great for photogs, longer battery life, Touch UI) and lower pricing on the iPhone – now $399 for the 8 GB version monthly network contract. I have a Blackberry 8700, but put some software on the iPhone and I’ll be interested too.

The Starbucks founder had the mike for a few minutes and talked about their 8 Grammy Awards and new WiFi tie-in to iTunes.

KT Tungstall performed 2 songs on a guitar. Lots of musical talent there.
