Anyone going to the keynote? The Keynote address kicks off at 9am Pacific on Tuesday, January 15th. They'll have live updates via Web, SMS, iPhone, and Spoiler Free.



Apple posted the 'Something in the Air' teaser campaign on their website, and promises that you will be able to watch the keynote on Apple.com on Tuesday afternoon (pre-recorded, not live). The banners were originally revealed on Friday at Macworld Expo's Moscone center.


It'll be hard to up the ante with last year's keynote for the iphone. I'm curious what they'll show this year. Rumors are saying it's the iTV stuff but we'll see how hard pressed that is.

The worlds thinnest and lightest out there! 0.16 to 0.76" of sleek, sturdy anodized aluminum. And the best part it's only 3 pounds!!!!

5 hrs of battery life (though it's built in so you'll need to send it in for a replacement). Replacement is only $129 (same as the iphone). Hopefully they'll have a do it yourself version :)

It's hella expensive but the top of the line features the 64GB Solid State Drive!!! 1.8 GHz Duo Core isn't your top of the line chip but the downsized courtesy of Intel helps on the efficient power usage. For a super light notebook I say it rocks!

O yeah like any ultralight it won't have a cd drive but an external one is available.

Bottom line.... dude I really want to dump this old Powerbook G4 (2002) and upgrade now :D just need to find the $$$ :(
