I have no idea what Apple just improved in the ipad.

So all Apple did was make a bigger screen.

Why make a bigger display? It's a magical piece of glass that lets you touch the software.

I mean that teaser video they played, it gave no indication of what Apple was suppose to be showing. It just looked liked any other ipad, so it was like, okaaaaay? Cause Tim Cook just seconds before played it up like the update was amazing and they actually completely changed up the ipad. This is just a bigger screen, nothing else.

Are you not getting him talking about all the other junk right now?

None of this is impressive. Its just another yearly hardware update that the ipad gets every year.

You do know the 'big' thing was a pun, right?

They act like every annual iPad is the best thing ever.

I get that its just that Tim Cook is a huge bitch, can Apple bring back Steve Jobs yet?

WHAT NO CRUNCHYROLL no way no sale

Honestly the real reason why I want a Apple TV is because of how awesome the last one was at streaming your Mac to your TV. Anything Apple TV doesnt support internally, you can just run on it from your Mac.

I still want this new Apple TV (as long as its $100) but this presentation is very underwhelming.

pressing harder on the screen lets you be more aggressive with the angry texts that you are sending to your boyfriend's other girlfriend you found while snooping on his iphone6s

Someone will crack the screen using this method and ForceGate will be born.

They did, it's just long touch renamed to something else. Apple is pretending they created something new.

Apple always brings up case scenarios that don't exist in the real world. No one uses their phone like this. Your average person uses their phone for calls, texting, and drunken photos in dark bars or house parties.

How good is the iPhone about uploading content to the cloud? 16GB shouldn't be that big of a deal if you just have everything upload to a server. I dunno, that's how i've been doing it for years.

So if I get Apple Upgrade will they just mail me a new phone on launch day every year? If so, I'm all in.

I missed that part, it's an Apple thing? I figure this would be handled by your phone carrier and Apple was only talking about the United States, in which case it is going to be a nightmare.
