There are quite a few rumors floating around about the upcoming Macworld. Like any good lover of all things Apple I have been keeping tabs on some of them. It promises to be an interesting event to say the least. While CES is going on now, I am less interested in that at this point. These are the rumors that currently interest me regarding Macworld.
- Itunes Movie Rentals - If true this will make me a happy camper. As an owner of the AppleTV this would make the thing way more useful. Right now I use the device to watch some TV shows and ripped DVDs. I even bought a couple of movies. I’d like to get more out of it though.
- Macbook Mini - A perennial rumor to be sure, but one that has a lot more steam this year than in past ones. A multi-touch capable sub notebook would turn the entire industry on it’s head to say the least. I myself would probably buy one. I am in the market for a new portable as my alBook, as much as I love her, is showing her age.
- iPhone Toys - A lot of possible iPhone related add ons this year. From third party earbuds w/ a mic by skullcandy, to some sort of all in one mounting/speaker device for the iPhone. I want more toys damnit!
- Blu Ray - Now that HD is bascially dead. I am hearing rumors of Apple including Blu Ray drives in their new models. This would be great with the increased storage capacity for data storage.
These are only a few rumors that have been mentioned but this is Macworld. This means I have to hold off on any purchases I am considering until after January 15th. This also means I get to speculate then go gaga over whatever The Steve says. Just the usual yearly stuff in the end ;).
