the apple surface keyboard ripoff costs more than buying the new appleTV

Kind of dumb to call the keyboard a Surface ripoff when third parties made iPad keyboard covers before the Surface existed imo.

Everyone I know who ever ran out of room on their phone ran out because they took a lot of photos.

That's a pretty cool idea, but again — are they really going to ship this thing with 16GB of storage AND make all your now-12MP photos even bigger?


CASEY NEWTON11:55:08 AM PDT
How much space does one photo take up now? Schiller says they're space efficient, but like ... there are limits to time and space here.

 4K video and the default photo behavior takes like 20 extra frames every time, but you'll pay an extra $100 if you want more than 16GB and you'll like it!

It's like they reinvented JPEGs, but they won't work on any other system. :/

 It's cool to have this feature built into the phone though. Now everyone can do it without having to think about t or know that it existed before Apple implemented it into iOS. It's about making cool tech easily accessible to the masses.

Glad Apple finally got the AppleTV they should have put out in 2013 out. Hopefully they'll get the deals done to launch their version of cable-with-buffering soon.

 Google Photos does something similar as well as doing video mixes and stuff. I mean, it's better in some ways and worse in some ways (at least from what we can tell from the keynote).
