So far so lame.
I hope a Leopard update is released with about 100 bug fixes. I don't give a smurf about iPhone software!

Re: Official MacWorld Topic
with the touch having wifi there is no reason all that can't happen on it as well. you would just be limited to when you can access the info as you would need to be within range of a wifi signal.

Re: Official MacWorld Topic
20 bucks is nothing, sheesh.
Movie rentals ought to be interesting. Will compete with netflix. if you have a good enough monitor you can have a nice viewing experience. of course you'd want some good computer speakers too.

Re: Official MacWorld Topic
i'd like both options.
30 days to watch and 24 hours to finish watching once you've started. I don't know if i like the latter part. Will the file just self-destruct or something?
