Genius gets so smart it launches full scale attack on Pop Culture, destroying musicdome and launching a new breed of AI songwriters.

New Nano looks great, but if you are using it while you are running (and therefore unwittingly shaking it), will it automatically shuffle your songs? That could get annoying.

To me, I like the square Nano Better (3rd gen - i believe)
Don’t like the black and sliver theme.

Well that was nice but not earth shaking. No news or mention of new notebooks was a disappointment.

Well that guy was right about the nano’s as were others about iTunes, but after all the speculation for months about new notebooks, displays and even an all new device, I can see this disappointing many.
There really didn’t need to be a staged “event” to simply unveil slightly updated versions of existing products.

While Apple releases new products and creates buzz in the market, millions of iPhone 3G users still struggle with the terrible connectivity of the iPhone 3G. Post your comments http://www.iphone3gcomplaints.com.
Maybe Steve Jobs will take a time-out from making rock star speeches launching the next big thing and , instead, acknowledge the buggy nature of the products already sold to customers.
