After the explosion...comes the blast!

Well, after all that Apple rumour fest I am thoroughly disappointed.

Great news for potential iPod Nano users.

Yet once again us iPod Touch users are punched hard in the stomach and expected to like it.

No, no! No mam!

I am now tired of this and yes I have heard the rumours about camera issues and I don't care.

The iPod touch should have come with a camera, there is no reason for it not to have one, none at all and no reason will excuse Apple for this.

If there was a manufacturing problem, again that is no reason not to launch the product, they launch plenty products with an advance shipment date.

And wait for one moment, how come the new iPod Touch update is free, I thought Californian law forbid that? OK its A 0.01 release, and maybe that is legal.

But I am in the UK, Europe. I am sold the product by Apple UK, not Apple in California, I live in the UK not California, I am billed by Apple in Luxembourg for iTunes NOT Cali-fucking-fornia, so why I am being ruled by Californian laws here? I would like the European Union to investigate that one for me please!

An FM radio, really. Well ok the US has fucked up their transition to digital for radio, but so have we Europeans. The US wins for TV digital transition (We in the UK started first and we wont finish till 2012/13 crap!), we introduced DAB which is low quality streaming over the air. Again, crap. But FM is being turned off in a few years here so not really that exciting news for us. FM is a dead technology, so not something I really want.

No new AppleTV which is now so overdue for an update it's laughable, where the fuck do you buy those 40Gb drives from Apple, the local recycling yard? Support it or kill it. Make up your fucking mind!

No iPad, but that was hardly a surprise, though I do see hints of it.

More focus on gaming, which I absolutely expected. This is their next market to eat up.

Here is what I would like to see:

A camera in the Touch, sooner rather than later otherwise your just going to totally piss off everyone that just bought a Touch. Not that you care.

Dump the classic next time around, we don't really need it if you can squeeze 128Gb into a Touch.

Drop the AppleTV as it is and re-launch. IT should be a new unit with an upgraded processor and graphics chip. Slightly more memory. Bigger hard drive, base would start at 120Gb. It would also have apps. It would work in conjunction with the iPhone and Touch initially and then have its own contollers. It would be a media player, movie rental device and a gaming machine!

Let the iPod and iPhone work like the Nintendo DS, portable games that talk to the AppleTV's games. Maybe let their motion sensors control on-screen action. Basically replace the Wii.

I do want an iPad but I want a full computer with no drives, just USB sockets and an on-screen keyboard. Upgraded touch compatible Front Row. Comes with a stand. Use it on the move, go home and use your plug in or ideally wireless apple keyboard and mighty mouse and you have a reasonable though not top of the range home computer.

I guess I want a lot.

Just do me one favour stop kicking the iPod Touch users in the nuts with upgrades at a price and crappy feature upgrades, as you yourselves said, they are the biggest growing market for iPods, so why treat them like shit?

I'm getting the same feelings I did when things started to slide at Microsoft and I personally am getting pissed off.

Oh and don't try the iTunes 9 Genius DJ Mixer, its totally crap. The playlists are better, the mixer just picks a song at random and generates a playlist from it, not exactly rocket science! Bit see thru that one! Like changing the colour of the box of washing powder and calling it NEW AND IMPROVED! I think not.

So angry today, so angry arent I, ooooh, just had to let it all out!

LOL

Oh yes, and Dear Beatles, make your fucking mind up, are you digital or arent you because I am so fucking sick and tired of hearing your going to someone or other I just don't fucking care any more! It was 50 fucking years ago! GET OVER YOURSELVES (and McCartneys greed in my opinion!) Otherwise all your target market.......will be dead before they get to buy these things!
