Scott McNulty: you can have your friends sit in front of you imac and take their pics
Laurie: Photobooth uses the iMac's screen as a flash and it's got cool little animation where the photo po out. It's got wacky photoshop-style effects built in. Fun, but hardly groundbreaking. 'The fu est a we've ever written.'
Fabie e: *yawn*

Fabie e: tv-out on the ipod
C.K. Sample, III: lol jay
C.K. Sample, III: nicew
Scott McNulty: and I am sure a le's stock will plummet
Jan: Here's what stuffmag says about iTunes 6: here are the big changes: firstly, 'gifting' - you can buy music for other people, who get an email telling them to download.
C.K. Sample, III: nice even
Jan: Next: customer reviews - Amazon-style peer reviews of music. Third: Just For You (beta) - a recommendation service, again similar to what Amazon offers.
Fabie e: i want to hear about hardware yo.
Scott McNulty: ok, who here will buy a music vidoe for 2 bucks?

Jay Savage: not if you've got one anyway
C.K. Sample, III: all my DVDs ri ed to h.264 in my pocket
Scott McNulty: I'm with Steve, A le will never make a video iPod! End of stroy

Jay Savage: but what's the resolution on the video out?
Fabie e: mmm neural interfaces.
Scott McNulty: that's a good question
Jan: nice that the video iPod comes with a case.
Jan: le worries about scratches than we had with iPod nano
C.K. Sample, III: blogsmith has started slowing down
