    ...maybe.

    TiVoToGo anyone?! (thanks for that one Matt ;-) )

    Seriously, the $64,000,000 (and probably more) question is: where does the "walkman of the 21st Century" go next?

    music +++ ???

    Jobs says not video - this would make the iPod more than "pocket-size" and "too big, too heavy, with no video content, and a screen too small, for too much engineering..." (we do not believe him!)

    So, we get digital photos. So what, we say. Cell phones can do it. We take photos and videos. Anyway, he did say some interesting things about the music industry and Record Executives (like "when was the last time we made records" -- good one Steve! :-) ) and the "digital box set" is a very cool idea. U2 will be the first for this and the namesake for the first special edition iPod. Good stuff. We better get Ralph one with the whole U2 set for Christmas.

    We think the comment for Bono about music/art itself was the most accurate view of what is to come: essentially "music" has changed based on the way that it is experienced and this experience has changed based on technology. That friends is the opportunity. Can we come up with something people want that is really unique?

    We will see!
