    Took me awhile to get why "iRwego" was a clever name.

    I get it now.

    Aaahh. Almost got me there Giz.

    I was rushing over there to download it when I realized...

    This is totally pointless on a 1G Touch.

    With that much torque, there is no way you'd be able to even get the car off the line without some computer controlling everything. Still, Audi makes sexy cars.

    I'm guessing a pricepoint or $600-700 as the ''shockingly low'' pricepoint...that or free due to it being vaporware.

    I like how Rubenstein, who worked on the iPod, was poopoo'ing the device while cooking his own competitor up at Palm. That's not so much assclownery as much as sleight of hand on his part.

    I suppose Anssi Vanjoki could still be correct, if, say, 5-10 years from now the iPhone is as esoteric as Macintosh computers in 1997. I love the iPhone now, but will it be relevant in 5 years time (the future iPhone, not this current one, which will be junk in a landfill or melted for scrap by then)?

    Ballmer: "You can get the Motorola Q right now and it does music and chat and internet... I'm very happy with our strategy."

    Um... how's Windows Mobile working out for you now Steve? Oh, and I owned a Q, and hated it from day 1.

    This looks nice enough that I almost want to ditch my Harmony and use this to run my home theater (projector, AV receiver, PS3, Xbox, and DVR system). The Harmony has physical buttons which do give it a leg up over this, especially for rapid-fire DVR commercial skipping, but I get frustrated with the Harmony sometimes. It's laggy and I find myself hitting the wrong buttons a lot.

    The only thing is I'd have to buy an iPod touch to dedicate to this function. I don't want to rely on my iPhone and have to run back downstairs to get it every time I use the theater.

    In reply to Steve Jobs Approves Knocking Live Video App Personally
    I grabbed this app immediately, before it's not free anymore or before AT&T throws such a fit that Apple pulls it. I know the app is buggy and the servers overloaded right now but I don't care. I'm sure they will get it to work soon enough, and then it will be tons and tons of awesome. Visit the company's website - they are serious about this tech. Think about it: true video chat on the iPhone!!! We all wanted this for bloody ages. I know we don't have a front facing cam but I will take this over nothing in a heartbeat.

    What a surprise to log onto Giz this morning and find out about this app. This is the last thing I expected Apple to approve. I'm still trying to figure out why.

    Because if it was Steve Jobs laughing at some new competitor product that did work out later on, he'd be only defending his company.
    It would be only a basic strategy for a competing company.
    Moreso, it would be an intelligent way of marketing their own product, and even a bit "cool" and "ballsy".

    Predictions are made all the time by all companies. Lots of them get it wrong.
    In Ballmer's case here, like it or not, he had lots of good points there which are still valid today.
