Predictions for Macworld SF 2006

[etchy_sketch]

Well, it's that time of year again and here are my predictions for Macworld SF 2006, separated into three categories - the likely, less-than-likely and my own personal wishlist.

Likely:1. iLife '06 with upgrades to iTunes (6.0.x), iPhoto 6, iMovie HD 2, iDVD 6, Garageband 3 and a new addition to the lineup

AirTunes 2 would be cool. Better if it would stream any video you might have on hand. *whistles innocently*

Haha...

I am reminded of purchasing my iPod and a little clear sticker over the screen that said, without a hint of irony or saracasm "Don't steal music." I swear, I could hear or see the thing winking at me whenever I read that sticker.

Thing is, IF they do that, make it where it can stream any video, they won't be able to keep them in stock.

The success of the iPod was based on something similar, which was that it played straight MP3 files from your existing collection. No software obfuscation like Sony's players, no copyright weirdness, just dump 'em on there and play 'em.

I say bring on AirTunes2 (with video)!!! :)

Maybe a clear sticker will surround the gadget that reads "Do not modify or increase signal strength so as to violate FCC regulations"

Haha...

My guess is that it would say "Don't steal movies!" *wink wink* *nudge nudge* Say no more!
