  • theres something in the air huh? o that would be the smell of shite!

  • Anything apple is just pointless. After the iPad i cannot take the company seriously. Anybody that buys an iPad just wasted a lot of booze money on an oversized, inferior iPhone without the phone feature. Portable my ass... try putting that bad boy in your pocket.

    Macbook air is just pointless too. Why would you need that thin a laptop? Seriously.. FUCKING POINTLESS

  • @Joppsta360 you just wasted your time there, the i-pad is a great device, it is far superior to the iphone in a lot of ways, since when did something portable have to be put in your pocket..., macbook air is pointless ?, well this isn't true, there is a large market for such a device, i wouldn't buy one but a lot of people do, why would you need a thin laptop ?, like you said PORTABLE, seriously... you just messed up

  • @applegeek18 LOL

    Is all i have to say. Joe Bloggs doesn't NEED any of this shit. The fact is, it may be portable but you can get a regular laptop that performs better and has the same "portability".

    Oh and the fact your name on youtube is "applegeek" says it all for me.. you are clearly delusional if you really like Apple products that much. The only good thing to come out of apple is the iPhone and even then, it's more of a convenience thing than anything else. It's the most convenient phone.

  • @Joppsta360 just because i support the decisions of a compnay doesn't mean i can't support SOME of their decisions, despite what you may think..., You could get a similar laptop but would it run MAC OS X, this is when people get confused, i was trying to talk about the OS, i hate windows, plain and simple, delusional ?, a bit strong word choice there, and judging by your own channel comments, no one seems to like you..., you surprised ?, so how about you just go, LOL is all i have to say

  • @applegeek18 My channel comments have nothing to do with the debate at hand. There are many more idiots on YouTube.. i wouldn't say you are one of them, so i will give you that.

    Apple in general is for people that want to pay for overpriced goods. Aesthetics over actual functionality. By definition in it's self.. anybody would say that is counter-productive and inefficient.

    I own an iPhone and that's all i intend to ever own. Apple computers should be renamed to LOLs instead of Macs imo.

  • i still got my first gen.. shame its in scotland getting fixed again. lol, 30 pin connector doest work when syncing.. lol

  • 4.0

  • Mac's really are just downgraded PC's with a glossy theme, they cant run shit, if anybody codes/hacks, youll 100% see that PC's are hella better

  • pretty old but apple rips people off by making existing users "upgrade" to a new firmware that new buyers will get free. and at 10$ its just rediculous for something that should be free because it fixes bugs from the last firmware

  • what the hell are you talking about, if you mean the iPod touch, and iPhone, all iPhone users get there OS firmware updates for free, i blooming expect them to be free what to iTouch users pay like $500 max, I will have paid over 1,300 dollars for my iphone contract

  • well ipod users have to pay 10$ for the 3.0 firmware upgrade and when(if) they make a new ipod touch, the new one will obvioudly come with 3.0 installed. And i would have gotten an iphone if i wanted to spend alot. i dont see how they justify charging ipod users the firmware upgrade other than then nickel and diming people. But seeing how everything apple is super expensive, im not supprised for the 10$

  • honestly your acting like 10 dollars is a lot of money. Hows this for a scenario, lets say you owned Ford for example, does that mean someone who pays less money for a similar Ford than someone who pays almost triple the cost of them is entitled to the same features?, erm no of course not. Its only because iPod users pay so little compared to the iPhone users,

  • ok. because your just rolling in 10$ bills then how is the 10$ soooooo important to apple that it needs to charge ONLY its ipod users. Especially when you can download and transfer the new firmware for free from a website i dont get why the 10$ is really needed

  • but its stupid letting people pay less get the same features for nothing, for the cost of my iPhone contract i will have paid over triple the cost of an iPod touch, you should pay for it since you pay so much less, if you can afford an iPod there is always the brown Zune

  • lol, zune. But your contract dosent go to apple (does it? should it?) but its not a matter of affording it just dont like that they charge for an update that dosent have huge amazing features. They let you put the keyboard into landscape for notes or email wich they should have done in the first 2 firmwares and they allow bluetootooth headphones after the longest time of them locking it down for nike. I wonder if a cam and mic will come to ipod or if that will take form iphone sales

  • yes half of the contract goes to Apple

  • Damn, Does you bill say something like $50internet use, $100talking use, $150apple wants? why does half go to them? that seems like alot

  • just reading Apple actually get very little really , I pay £42.50 a month for my iPhone contract, thats about $80.00 Apple get about $12.00 from that

  • Paintball dick head, apple may make you pay for stuff but they have better software and technology than your pc will ever have. its expensive because it's good. now get on your vista and get some viruses :)

  • classic mac asshole thinking his apple is virus proof. they so not get viruses as often but still can. Nobobdy writes viruses for macs cause the software is. Do you think if all the writers switched to infecting macs that your "cool" computer would stay clean for long? they may be slightly better but that dont give them the right to charge 2x of what its worth..They dont have any competition so they overcharge and make consumers think they are all high and mighty only because it costs more

  • dont get me wrong, the mac OS (is it called ice cat now?) is very good at its job but thats about all its good at. thats all some people need and thats all some people want,,,,,,but if any company were to make the same OS and computers all to themselves and not expand production, they would turn out just like apple, High quality at high prices but thats not anything amazing if you have loyal customers who will buy anything "new" your company pushes out (a.k.a. the "new" ipod touch 3g)

  • One, its called snow leopard not ice cat. 2 i have ipod touch 1g, macbook, mac mini and iphone 3gs. None of them have had any problems and, i used to have an acer with vista software i think and that was complicated, boring and slow, the only problems i have had is you. The best pc's i've ever seen are on a website called alienware and they go up to 7k....you say macs are overpriced look at these super pc's, If you got a mac for 7k the technology would be far more superior than a pc for 7k.)....

  • 1, i was joking 2, problems will come easy if you dont follow apples rules and acer with vista is asking 4 trouble 3, a mac is not a super computer and apple claims they already put their best tech into their machines but they never have many things that are groundbreaking. If anything they continue to damper the consumers control so u might aswell be using a mac at the apple store

  • Plus I'm 13 I guess your older but still don't know how much better Mac's are compared to PC's.

  • macs are considered better by most but i dont know what all the hype is about. They are good quality products but people blow them way outta line. If your looking for a good computer then go for a PC but if your looking for a mac then the only way to go is apple.

    to me its like buying 2 completely different things, Almost like buying a new ford or caddilac, Both are new, very good, and if maintained will operate like day 1. they are both cars but in completely different catergories

  • I never said that Mac's are super computers, I was talking about the ones on the website. Ok this will sound dumb, I thought mac's were made by apple? And what computer have you got?

  • if you are 13 and bought yourself a mac then i applaud you but i myself have a nothing special computer that gets the job done for everyday things but when i need to edit or do anything specialized i use the iMac that is downstairs. Usually 1/2 of the programs i need are not mac compatable so i either have to run parallels or just use my computer and my computer is actually MINE (meaning personalized) and a mac just dosent have any emotion to it. Its a computer there to do its job(good and bad)

  • I got an apple mac because they last, I can update to the latest software regularly and when I'm done with it I can sell it at a half decent price. Some people (probably owning apple equipment) say the opposite, they say Pc's don't have emotion or aren't very creative. It is a shame allot of software, games and stuff aren't apple mac compatible but so far all I've needed has been on the mac already or I've bought it compatible for apple. If you have an imac why do you find flaws with apple?

  • don't touch so hard on that iphone!!

  • g1 is better

  • You smell

  • that guy gave u a dirty look at 4.35

  • true

  • pet that laptop is like get the fuck off me and stop touching me up!

  • this video is outdated,

    macfonty, you cant get good things for cheap.

  • Yes, since this video, Apple have included iPod Touch software 2.1 with all iPod Touches.

  • Hi all

    Just wondering i know he speaks of this thing where a lot of the iphone features can be put on the ipod touch. I am getting itoucj this xmas but wondering does this update thing or whatever it is come with it or is it free to download. Can you add those links to your home page and let the itouch find your location with the pre installed software

    Really appreciate a reply

    Thanks

  • There the exact same except SMS, phone.

  • if u aint already got 1 i had to pay for iphone update 2.1 software £6 summat i think its $8 4 u americans but the new itouch i heard is free get the 2g man!

  • God, he's got a boring voice. I had to listen to that twice.

  • The host so new

  • Blahhhdiddy Blaaah! Change the fucking record :-(

  • Depending on what you do. Apple is good for flash and graphic design etc.. Microsoft and all others are for gaming and office jobs!

  • APPLE ARE THE MOST EXpENSiVE,BUT... THE BEST!

  • haha he already new what it was going to be. he already guessed most of the things that are coming out from the mac before he had seen them! did someone say insider information?

  • or he filmed it properly, not chronologicaly. whatch the announcments then edit in his predictions.

  • This MacWorld probably featured the most badly kept secrets of all time. Many people knew what would be announced.

  • i love the gadget show never missed an episode yet

  • hey what times is it on what days

    in the UK ???

    ???

  • love this show!!!

  • fuk u pussys concentrating on the voice not the programe!!

  • he is really annoying

  • Macs are the best. I have been using one for nearly five years and it hardly goes wrong. I recently bought an iPod touch and it is fantastic. I just hope it lasts !

  • Yeah, but then since I've had my XP desktop for the same time, and a Vista laptop for a year now, neither have ever gone wrong.

  • Wow! That's quite amazing in my opinion. Also, you don't know if anything has gone wrong, as viruses and trojans don't come up saying: "Your computer has been infected". They run in the background either destroying your computer or collecting information. You can't disagree with the fact that Macs are better. You know they are!

  • I think they're less virus prone. But I mean, how much effort is it to get a decent anti-virus software?

    Plus, I love my gaming, and hate the way Macs desktop works/looks... Probably because I've been born into a Windows world :P

    However, I've finally been converted to iPods, just because of the Touch. It's brilliant, only let down is iTunes.

  • It's not really the effort. It's the prospect of running antivirus software checking every file on your computer in the background that isn't a very nice one. I'm writing this from Boot Camp (I play games once in a while), and I'm currently not running any antivirus software, mainly I feel that I really don't need any, but for many average users an antivirus would be needed, slowing their computer down. Norton and Mcafee suites come to mind...

  • You should use a mac and then rethink your comment. The next version of Mac OS X will also have many speed enhancements, putting the speed difference between Windows and mac OS X behind us.

  • This MacWorld probably featured the most badly kept secrets of all time. Many people knew what would be announced.

  • YOU ARE A FOOL airjaff.

  • @MDreadedTV

    I bought my iPod touch 3 years ago, and it still works like brand new. It lasts for sure.

  • @MDreadedTV That would be why microsoft owns %90 of the market, yep there reaaaal good.

  • @MDreadedTV You misspelled windows.

  • @MDreadedTV I have a pc and it hardly goes wrong.

  • You guys should do a piece on Automator

  • awesome! wow mac rules!

  • check out DOMINOTES

    its frikken amazing

  • the z414 interstate flickdrive gwarmafile sharing system uses all os systems. its an inovation take meechylads word for it. wot he dont know about flickdrives aint worth knowing.

  • Thanks Man, I really enjoyed your take on this years Macworld Expo... Short & Sweet!

  • i hacked my iphone to orange so i dont pay as much and get the same great features ha ha ha

  • Nice one. I hacked my iPod touch and I'm very happy with it!

  • how did u do tht hacked for wat???

  • thats simple shit, i done the same woopdy doo

  • jerk

  • i want one

  • damnit he guessed everythign b4 it actually was revealed!!! what ever happened to surprise!

  • lol yeh of course he guessed haha obviously the first bit wasnt live haha

  • Why?

  • over pirced

  • And the OS is really locked down. At least with XP you can change the theme. Mac OSX nope! But for total freedom you're gonna want Ubuntu :)

  • I have to agree with you about Ubuntu. But I can't get used to it, and the thing that stopped me using it was that it wasn't compatible with my wireless adaptor.

  • hello i was thinkin wether i should buy this phone but then i realized that what the hell you can get so much better phones on the market for a lot better prices and that with this phone you are just buying the cool name and the look. if you are a poser thats fine but if you just want a good phone that will work well then there are so many realy good much better options! oh and by the way ai am just doing this to exeed the 500 limit or atleast just get up to it i dont know why but i thought ...

  • JailBreak JailBreak JailBreak. All im going to say.

    MacBookAir looks immense. Shame it has no built-in optical drive.

  • you sir, DreamProfessional  are a dick

  • calm down mac shagger. its his own opinion.

  • calm down mac shagger. its his own opinion.

  • apple sux

  • i really don't know why people will spend £1,200 to get their laptop a few millimetres thinner. It's anythig but pratical, touch it and it would probably snap in 2.

  • its actually very strong...

  • fair enough. i thaught ipods would break but mines has survive for a few years. still dont think its worth £1200 tho. No internal CD drive, no ethernet port.

  • one thing the ipods can do no other MP3 player is u plug your Ipod in and Itunes will auto sync Music and Video with out u doing anything at all if you set it up that way

  • My MP3 player will do this with a piece of software called Media Monkey, so its not just Ipods.

  • i know, how annoying is it.

    itunes pisses u off sometimes doesnt it.

  • yes and my friends Hyundai does everything my Honda does, but which one would you rather have?!

  • exactly

  • up yours mate. honda for sure

  • i brought an ipod nano, two months later its still workin and that but i relized wah an idiot i am for buying it, u can get mp4`s that have way bigger screens and hold up more memo than the ipod for half the price.ipod are more of a fashion item or a craze than why its actually there for.

  • exactly. i've got a samsung mp4 player that can do everything my friends ipod nano can do, andf it cost half the price

  • iphone in the U.K is too expensive to buy. I am waiting for the prices to go down, then i will decide on buying it.

  • iPohone prices are not set to be reduced for a while yet, I work for O2 and believe me they are too expensive to be able to drop prices. I mean the customer pays £269 for one then ahs to go on a minimum £35 18 month contract. which seems alot. Not as much as Apple are charging O2 for one handset, which is Nearly £1,200 for each handset

  • lol nano is a rip off but my ipod classic isnt lmao

  • to add to this, when you download itune music, you can only use with ipods and for tht registered user and with apples own dummy format. What a fucking con. its got its own lock on there too but you can get it unlocked for sure, i think thats a bit risky thou.

  • I have to agree with the Autoassult. Its all trends that die out like 6 months later. I'm just glad i seen this all coming before it happened. And I cant get over how enthusiastic that presenter has to be... like his life means nothing without gadgets... tut tut

  • gimmicks gimmicks gimmicks gimmicks gimmicks gimmicks gimmicks it's all the same but different totaly rubbish at the end of the day spend you're money on something better like giving it to a poor child fucksake

  • i love your show i always watch it

  • i really dont see whats so special about time capsual lol its just an external hdd thats wireless ... i phone is good but cannot use picture messaging or send files with bluetooth but heat sensitive screen is ok i suppose...and air...no Ethenet :O what a fuck up

  • The Air is such a gimmick. No Ethernet? Well that screws a huge number of offices who don't want the huge security nightmare that is wireless then...

  • true but they wouldnt use it anyway if it had ethernet cause it hasnt got a disk drive (although you can use the disk software via another mac/pc) and it would break easy

  • this guy is such a dooche bag cant stand him !! videos gud tho

  • i hate 2 b boring bt Macs are better GENERALLY, sometimes u gt some that filter through which break bt tht's it. and remember tht technology is never perfect and will let u dwn @least 1 point in ur life. they are better.

  • 10 years on a mac. always work and never crashes! runs final cut at blazing speeds too!

  • amen!

  • apple products i believe are to put it into one word crap! i am now on my 5th ipod, thanks for the 1 year warrenty cause they keep breaking down after the first 5 to 9 months not only that i also bought an imac which when delivered wouldnt not connect with the internet and for 5 days i phoned the people at apple and they would not send anyone out in my opinion i would stay clear of apple products

  • ive used my ipod for 3 years and no problem, so its obviously your carelessness

  • am just as careful as the next the problem that kept happening to me was it wouldnt turn on even when in the charge port or it would only play 15 seconds of a song and then skip i tried restoring it and that but still didnt work

  • im sorry but this guy is annoying! he emphises everything he says makes it seem like he dosnt no what hes talking about, which he dosnt cause when he says you click this and its now backing up all your information into the time capsual, uhm yeah mate its not plugged in, i no its wireless but its no powered by air is it? tit

  • all the pc users saying "pcs could do that years ago" and stuff like that.... how??? was it easy??? and if it was soooo easy why do we always see that bloody blue screen... macs dont crash, dont lock up and dont need silly amounts of protection to make them safe!

  • i would then to disagree with u because i have a mac and within 10 minuts of using it it crashes

  • i would then to disagree with u because i have a mac and within 10 minuts of using it it crashes

  • they dont yet, until someone develops a virus .. lol

  • monkeys fuck cats

  • u on it!!!!!!

  • u no it!!!

  • I recently got a mac and I have to say they are fantastic compared to pc's. I know lots of you out there will disagree (I used to think pc's were better too) but just give macs a try, they are great!

  • Yes Macs should really be called Mfc if any can guess why they get a cookie

  • many fantastic corruptions?

  • Yes Macs should really be called Mfc if any can guess why they get a cookie

  • mother fucking cunts?

  • I agree! ^_^

  • A removeable battery? Oh yay, because every laptop out there doesn't already have that?

    They've got rid fo the optical drive? Right so I need another computer to wifi to it to use a DVD drive.

    Can do that on Windows, ... Backing up automatically over a network... I could do that in DOS.

    This is what I hate about Mac, marketting stuff that can already be done anyway. And make it sound like its new and innovative. When its really actually nothing new.

  • I think the point is that most of the time it's not quite as simple as "plug it in and it works". Take wireless for example, you could spend an age setting it up properly, but if you have an AirPort the software that it comes with sets itself up more or less, without even using a browser based interface like most routers use. It's just about making things easier and faster to do which is the real "innovation".

  • assholes don't see whose turnover is higher

    see whats cool and new and innovative

    apple has got it all

    it has provided us with revolutionary products!!

  • It's pretty simple really. An old crappy ford will get you from A to B just as effectively as a more expensive luxury BMW. But in the BMW you travel in class and style! There you have it - PC vs Mac.

  • teeeeveeee

  • apple sucks, nokia sucks, sony ericsson pwn

  • If you buy a mac you fail at life

  • if you use the term 'fail at life' then you're a COMPLETE nerd...go play some D n D

  • LOL. Nerd.

  • apple rules , nokia sucks

  • nokia phones are far better

  • are apple going to be releasing an upgrade to the ipod touch and the software that they just realised for it is that now built in to them? thanks

  • i love macs, that is why i'm getting a IMac!!. put like i have all ways say i will always uses windows.

  • why did you call me a dick?

    if you call me a dick well your a dick.

  • you are a penis

    nah im joking

  • lol

  • ubuntu is so much better.

  • why didnt they just put a good fuckin camera.....everythin else is great except the stupid 2mp camera

  • Did you ever consider the fact that if you want to take photographs then you buy a digital still camera, if you want to engage in video conferencing then you dont want it lagging out because it has to reduce the resolution of it. Seriously though, which dimwit would want to try and stream a constant 2mpx video stream over the net?

  • wow. this guy read the rumors before. the only thing which no one knew about was time capsule. and that wasn't too ground breaking.

  • Wow I love MAX pc's and the show is very good....

  • fucking hell 1 terabite thats fucking huge!!

  • Until the Air thing can play Crysis then I'll be amazed.

  • I just failed D:. I meant "Until the Air thing can play Crysis, then I won't be amazed."

  • go on fob95

  • nice, Gadgetshow, what time are you on at on Five, I can't seem to find ya on Google :S Thanks :D

  • last seris it was on at 8.00 on monday

  • i have a macbook air, there not all they are cracked up to be, to watch movies and play music etc, you have to plug in a disc reader and speakers

  • It's mainly aimed at business travellers i.e thin and portable. If you were using it for those things, most of the time, you would have been better getting a MB or MBP.

  • Wow, Not even a minute in and 3/4 predictions have turned out to be correct. These rumour mills are getting better!
