It was an exciting day today for Apple geeks like myself everywhere. The keynote speech at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco, CA always sets the world a-Twitter and today was no exception. The biggest announcements centered around the new iPhone operating system, MacBook Pro updates, and OS X 10.6, aka Snow Leopard.
In the interest of full disclosure, I should tell you two things:
I live in Montana, the “Land without AT&T,” so I don’t get to have an iPhone. I do, however, love my iPod Touch. Those who know me personally will attest to the fact that I am nowhere near cool enough to pretend to not be impressed with Apple’s product announcements. Even though they didn’t announce the immediate release of a $15, 128 GHz 12-Core netbook with free worldwide 4G connectivity and a 1000-hour user-replaceable battery, I’m still an Apple fan-boy. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Now…on with the news.
iPhone 3G S
A new version of the highly-popular iPhone is scheduled for release on on June 19th in the US, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland. The iPhone 3G S (”The ‘S’ stands for speed,” according to Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide product marketing, Phil Schiller) brings a faster operating experience to the end user with a faster processor and more built-in memory and its ability to take advantage of HSDPA, a faster cellular technology.
Though the phone looks similar to the current iPhone 3G, it now includes a number of internal upgrades.
A new camera allows iPhone 3G S users to control the focus by touching the screen or using an autofocus feature. Standard definition video capture is now available, as well. New headphones with a microphone, clicker, and volume controls allow easy access to the Voice Control features. Now you can voice dial or request music to be played on your iPhone without having to tap that screen. New hardware encryption allows users taking advantage of some of the new operating system features such as Exchange support or Find your iPhone (discussed below) to instantaneously wipe the data from their phone remotely and/or encrypt backups. Improved battery life, increased environmental friendliness, a built-in digital compass, and support for the Nike+ fitness accessory are also new features of the iPhone 3G S. iPhone OS 3.0
Being the tiny little Macs that they are, iPhones (and iPod Touches) can have hundreds of features added or improved simply by upgrading the software that drives them. On June 17th, owners of the original iPhone and the iPhone 3G will be able to download and install the new iPhone OS 3.0. First- and second-generation iPod Touch users get to fork out $10 for the download.
Many of the 100 new features present in this operating system release were demonstrated at a press event in March. Some of the key features include:
Cut, Copy, and Paste Landscape mode in all applications Push notifications for apps Spotlight search across the entire device Bluetooth-based peer-to-peer gaming Find My iPhone - This cool features allow MobileMe users to log in using a web browser and see where (on a Google Map) they last left their phone. It will also all you to play an alert on your phone to help you find it in the couch cushions. If your phone is stolen, you can remotely wipe all the data from the phone to keep out prying eyes. Turn-by-turn GPS-based directions is allowing companies such as TomTom to deliver live GPS navigation in conjunction with a cool suction cup cradle device that adds hands-free calling, power, and a louspeaker to your iPhone. Tethering (using your iPhone’s 3G cellular connection in lieu of of Wi-Fi for a Bluetooth-connected laptop) and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Support - the ability to send photo or video messages) have been added in this release but won’t be available to users in the US using AT&T. Twenty-nine carriers will support MMS and dozens will support tethering at the time of the iPhone OS 3.0 launch, but AT&T isn’t one of them. Guess it’ll be a bit longer before your kids can send photos of their junk to each other during their middle school lunch breaks. Safari 4
Apple’s web browser, Safari, reaches version 4.0 today. Safari 4, which has been in public beta since February, primarily offers speed enhancements. It’s available right now for both Mac and Windows by clicking here.
I’m not going to list the 150 features of Safari 4 here, so I’ll just point out a few of the more interesting ones:
Increased speed - According to Bertrand Serlet, Apple’s senior vice president of software engineering, Safari 4 can execute JavaScript nearly eight times faster than Internet Explorer 8 and more than four times faster than Firefox 3. Safari 4 can also load eight pages three times faster than IE and Firefox, according to Apple’s figures. By the way, please don’t tell me you’re still using Internet Explorer. If you are, close this window now, and come visit this site again after you download Firefox, Chrome, or Safari. Thanks. Other features such as Top Sites, Full History Search, and Cover Flow for browsing bookmarks are all very handy. Most interesting to me (as a web designer) is all of the cool back-end standards support that Safari 4 offers. CSS Animation, CSS Effects, CSS 3 Web Fonts, CSS Canvas, Acid 2 and 3 compliance, SVG 1.1 support, and much more allow designers and coders to write more powerful, more accessible websites. The problem is, of course, that it will literally be years before the most widely-used web browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer) catches up, so we have to keep writing hacks for sites and dumbing designs down to work on that oh-so-popular browser. As a photographer, ICC Color Profile Support is nice to see. Images intended for display on the web should still be in the sRGB color space, but it’s nice to know that Color Profile Support is out there in browsers (Safari isn’t the only one, I believe.) Snow Leopard
This item (and the next) definitely affect photographers. Snow Leopard, or Mac OS X 10.6, is scheduled to be released in September. We’ve heard about Snow Leopard before, and the keynote today gave us another glimpse at what it will offer.
In a departure from trends set by the last few major Mac OS updates (Tiger and Leopard, particularly), Snow Leopard focuses more on solid performance updates than flashy new features.
The biggest jump that Apple made here, in my opinion, was the decision to support only Intel architecture with this operating system. Those still working with an older PowerPC-based Mac will be unable to install Snow Leopard. That’s ok. The time has come. Even though I still have one PowerPC Mac in my arsenal, I’m ok with this decision. Removing all the extra code required to support both the PowerPC and Intel architecture reduced the footprint of the OS installation to less than half the size of Leopard. This should clear up around 6GB for most users.
The code for the Finder has been completely rewritten in Cocoa to take advantage of new hardware technologies such as multi-core processors and lots of RAM. 64-bit support will help programs like Photoshop and Lightroom really fly.
Quicker Time Machine backups, faster wake-up and shut-down times, built-in location services, automatic updates for printer drivers, and more efficient file-sharing aren’t as flashy as the dozens of truly new features introduced in Leopard, but they are a very welcome bunch.
MacBook Updates
This is, not surprisingly, the announcement that I’m the most excited about. You’ve figured it out by now, right? I’m a Mac user. I’m a huge Mac fan. I’ve spent years working with both Macs and PCs on a private and a professional level. You can get the same things accomplished on a PC that you can on a Mac and vice-versa (for the most part). However, anyone looking for a computer recommendation from me is only going to get a recommendation for a Mac. In my experience, they are so much cleaner, faster, and easier to use and maintain for almost all average users than a Windows-based PC. I know lots of people disagree. It’s like religion and politics, though. You aren’t going to change my mind (and I understand I probably won’t change yours if you’re a die hard PC geek like I once was), so don’t even try.
Ok…got that out of my system. Let’s talk about today’s announcements.
Almost all of Apple’s laptop line got a refresh today. Two really cool things to point out: They got less expensive and they are shipping immediately!
MacBook
The MacBook is Apple’s inexpensive, entry-level laptop. The upgrades today include a faster Intel processor, faster memory, and a larger hard drive. The $999 base model comes with the following features:
2.13GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor 2GB DDR2 Memory 160GB hard drive NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics card Standard keyboard White polycarbonate shell You can customize this machine by maxing out the RAM at 4GB and putting in a 500GB hard drive. Not bad!
MacBook Pro
This is a true professional-grade, photographer’s laptop. I’ll be writing another article shortly on the exact specs I’d recommend, so I’ll try to keep my opinions to myself for the rest of this article.
There were a few big changes in this line…namely the promotion of the 13-inch Aluminum unibody MacBook into MacBook Pro status. The 13-inch MacBook Pro has two standard processor speeds available (2.26 GHz and 2.53 GHz) .
All of the MacBook Pros (13-, 15-, and 17-inch models) have built-in, non-user-replaceable batteries. Apple claims that they offer up to 7 hours of run time (8 hours for the 17-inch model). The built-in battery in the new 13-, 15-, and 17-inch MacBook Pro is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at up to 1000 full charge and discharge cycles.
All of the MacBook Pro models can now take up to 8GB of RAM. This is very good news. It was the only thing that was causing me to recommend that photographers go for the 17-inch MacBook Pro instead of the 15-inch. That changes now…more on it later.
The 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pros now have a built in SD (Secure Digital) Card slot. Handy, but not necessary. I’m still using CF (Compact Flash) primarily, but I’m sure this will change. The addition of the SD Card slot removes the ExpressCard/34 slot that used to be in that location. Some have balked at its removal, but I’m a pretty high end user and, though I thought I’d find good use for it, I’ve never used my ExpressCard/34 slot. Shameful…I know. I don’t think you’ll miss it either. If you must have one, the 17-inch MacBook Pro keeps the ExpressCard/34 slot at the expense of the SD Card slot. You could always get an SD Card reader to put in that ExpressCard/34 slot, of course.
MacBook Air
The MacBook Air got a bit of a performance boost and a significant price cut. For $1,499, you can get a model with a 1.86GHz processor, 2GB RAM, and a 120GB hard drive. For $1,799, a 2.13GHz MacBook Air equipped with a 128GB Solid State Drive can be yours. The USB-to-Ethernet adapter is now included in the box with the Air. It was previously only available separately.
As I’ve mentioned, I’ll be following this up in a day or two with an article about the ideal photographer’s laptop. Your comments are welcome.
If you’d like to watch the Keynote address for yourself, it is available here.
The name of this rumored new iPhone you guys have been hearing about may be called the “iPhone Video”. An image was posted just two hours ago of AT&T’s support section of their site. In the image a drop down menu is open and it gives you the option to select “Original iPhone” “3G iPhone” and “iPhone Video”. This is not referring to video playback on the device but video recording. And if this is correct that means a better camera will come on the new device, as well as the rumored video editing software, and iChat. Could this be photoshopped or real? We will just have to wait until the announcement at WWDC. What do you guys think? This could be a marketing plan for Apple. Let me a explain what I mean…(image inside!) . If this image is true, Apple may have set this up and told AT&T to update their site with it and let just one person catch wind of it. Once its out they remove it and have tons of people talking about it. Free advertising and it builds buzz about it.
Trying to predict what we'll see at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference this year gives one the slight feeling of deja vu. Heading into the annual conference last year, we knew there would be three basic topics covered in the event's opening keynote speech: OS X 10.6, the iPhone platform, and new iPhone hardware. You can bet that WWDC 2009--sold out for the second straight year--will hit on those same three areas. But there are still plenty of questions surrounding the specific details of what we'll see Monday morning when the conference opens at San Francisco's Moscone Center. We know that the human headliner of the kickoff event, the conference keynote speech, will be Phil Schiller, vice president of marketing. Apple has promised he will discuss iPhone OS 3.0, which should be available this summer, as well as Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. The other headliner, that will invariably steal the show, will be new iPhone hardware, if it is indeed introduced. It seems a good bet since it's practically Apple tradition now to introduce the latest update to its incredibly popular smartphone at WWDC. The device may not be immediately for sale, and Apple could wait to roll them out in July, like last year. But the No. 1 reason Apple is likely to debut the phone Monday is that the point of WWDC is to teach developers how to work with Apple's mobile and desktop operating systems. It wouldn't make much sense to bypass the opportunity to familiarize them with new application programming interfaces (APIs) for new iPhone hardware. Of course, rumors have been bubbling since at least January about a second-generation iPhone 3G. Some of the more credible leaked photos and uncovered clues seem to point to a more evolutionary update to the phone's hardware, instead of a major change like last year's upgrade to an iPhone that could handle 3G wireless service. Things that appear likely: It's easy to see Apple keeping the 16GB model of the iPhone, and introduce a 32GB version, while keeping the prices the same: $199 for the smaller, $299 for the larger. A new camera with the ability to take video. A magnetometer built into the phone's hardware. Speculation regarding a discount version of the phone in a smaller capacity with fewer features for $99 has cropped up also, mostly from Wall Street analysts. Apple already has a 10.8-percent share of the smartphone market, and lowering the price by $100 would be a way to expand the user base even further. But like most things with Apple, we won't know what they're going to do until they decide to tell us.
Beyond rumor, speculation, and grainy photos appearing online, it's impossible to know exactly what to expect. Despite that, some are already saying the anticipated keynote will be underwhelming compared with most years, with Steve Jobs sidelined, and no early signs of any sort of monumental update to the iPhone hardware. Most of the updates to the iPhone will have to do with the operating system update, which Apple already detailed at a special event in March. We know for sure iPhone OS 3.0 will add some features iPhone users have been demanding since the phone's debut in 2007: background processing, system-wide search, the ability to copy, cut, and paste, multimedia messaging, and an option for a landscape virtual keyboard. There will also be 1,000 new APIs available to developers creating applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch platform. Apple didn't discuss every single one of those at the March event, so it's certainly possible Schiller and whoever else joins him onstage could have saved one or two of the best things to unveil Monday. Apple has also promised to give more details on Mac OS X 10.6, which the company announced at WWDC last year, and promised it would be ready in "about a year." Apple will likely give us the release date on Monday. Leading up to the event, rumors of a Verizon service plan option on the iPhone, and the unveiling of an Apple touch-screen tablet have surfaced. Those are likely wishful thinking--for now. Though those rumors could both become reality, it's not likely they'll appear at WWDC. AT&T's contract with Apple to offer the iPhone is said to guarantee exclusivity for five years. And most agree a touch-screen tablet wouldn't be available until 2010 at the earliest. Of course, many WWDC attendees may still be holding out hope that Jobs will make an appearance Monday. Apple has been clear that Jobs' return as CEO is scheduled for "the end of June," though it's impossible to say for sure whether he would simply attend the conference or not. We'll be live-blogging the keynote speech, which is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. PDT on Monday. So please be sure to come back and read about what Apple is announcing as it happens.
At the 2009 Electronic Entertainment Expo or E3, Microsoft and Nintendo unveiled new gadgets that will literally put you in the game. The new additions to the Microsoft Xbox 360 and Nintendo's Wii don't require you to purchase a new console. Although the Nintendo Wii, allows gamers to interact with games by motion, whether it be baseball of the Wii Fit, Nintendo has taken another step forward to allow gamers to be more involved in getting fit with the introduction of Your Shape.
With Your Shape, you are brought into the video gaming world and can control the frequency of workouts, and the type of work out, whether it be shaping or toning your body. As your workout progresses, you will be given different excercises to drive up your heart rate and keep you in shape. No need to buy a new console, the gear you're going to need to play Your Shape comes free when you purchase the game this holiday season.
Microsoft is also making strides to give gamer realistic interaction with Project Natal. Project Natal is Microsoft's code name for the new Xbox 360 motion sensing bar. Natal is controller–free, using what looks like a TV–mounted camera/microphone bar to sense motion, sound, and even 3D movement. Project Natal takes gamers into their games, using voice recognition and full body motion capturing allowing gamers to use their whole body to play the video games, not to mention new games make it fund for the entire family. And it's not just for games, the motion sensor bar doubles as a remote control for multimedia play back, so no need to by universal remotes because watching your favorite DVD's can be done at the flick of a wrist.
In case you haven't heard, the Wii's Your Shape will be out just in time for the holidays, but there is still no release date for Microsoft's Project Natal.
