I wonder why they never give you enough features and settings to be happy. Pretty much all cellphones today, have not only a higher res backcamera, but also a frontcamera so you could use that for chat. I guess we have to wait till 2009 or later. Apple, you really need to beat all with more then just the design, ok?

Nice job guys Haha I was wondering how the heck you could look into the camera and view the screen at the same time with it being on the back.

And as I said in the post, large software companies almost never have this luxury. Maybe it wouldn't take up an entire release cycle, but it would definitely be painful for management to trade-off exciting new features for faster effects.

This means new features cannot be accessed from it, so Adobe has indeed got to rewrite its apps. Apparently there are a lot of long time Mac devs who are in the same boat. Not a nice situation to be forced into really... I sympathize with them all. @milo: Apple has deprecated Carbon since last year, despite it being touted as a “First Class Citizen in Mac OS X” in previous years.

Engadget mentioned an announcement of a 256gb SSD that was planned to ship this fall and sell for around $600. I think it could be possible to have a quad-core 256gb SSD 17" MacBook Pro in the fall. They could build in a thinner form factor like the Air and put in full connectors in the back, unlike the Air. I'm pretty sure that's what Steve wants to do. The reason it's taken so long is that only the SSD would be fast enough to keep MacBook Pro performance up, and I'm sure there are cooling issues with the Quad Core. I don't know if he could do it for less than $3,999 but I know it would sell like crazy, even at that price. If we're lucky maybe we'll see $3,499. I think if it can be done, we'll see it this fall. I'm definitely looking forward to it and only fearing the price :-(. D Miles2Go, it might not take that long.

Except that neither of those new features has anything to do with 64 bit. Is there any reason to believe that Apple would require apps to be 64 bit to take advantage? Or has Apple said that either of those features will be Cocoa only? “They’re using Carbon right now (actually, so is Apple for most of their pro apps), and Photoshop CS4 will still be 32-bit since Apple dropped Carbon-64 support.”
