Is There Something in the Air for MacWorld?

Steve said, I believe last year, that Apple was to stand on 4 legs. One was the Mac (entire lineup), Two was the iPod (entire lineup), Three was the iPhone, and the 4th was yet to be announced.

Perhaps, Apple is introducing the iBlimp? While the last thing we need is something wireless, a PowerBook Duo replacement would be nice, it still makes you wonder, what does Steve have up his sleeve?

One (Possible) Answer: AppleTV intergraded with Sling Player and iPhone (watching the Sling Player feed over the Air wirelessly).
 
Just surfing, I found that:

Songfacts
Thunderclap Newman were a UK Rock group formed by Jazz pianist Andy "Thunderclap" Newman, singer/drummer John "Speedy" Keen and 16-year-old guitarist Jimmy McCulloch. Pete Townshend discovered them.
Townshend engineered, arranged and played bass on this song. The Who never had a #1 hit - this was the only song he worked on that went to the top of the charts.
[...]
This was used in the 1969 film The Magic Christian.
It was also featured in the 2000 movie Almost Famous and the comedy movie Kingpin.
[...]
This song was used in a commercial television advertisement campaign for DirecTV.

ok ?
 
Hmm, what about an ultra-portable laptop that has a docking station it could wirelessly communicate with for when moving about the house? Then again, maybe we're thinking too Mac-like, maybe this will be a completely different device (I cringe a little at the thought of a tablet, though).
 
I needsome help guys. Does anybody know where I can contact Apple for a new laptop idea? Would really appreciate if someone helped me.
 
Heh... pretty much the only way you're going to get Apple to listen to your idea is to get employed by them, and even then, you'll have to be pretty far up the corporate ladder for anyone to take your idea seriously.

I know we've all got really super-cool ideas that we think Apple should implement, but as far as Apple sees it, they're doing just fine themselves and have an excellent track record. They don't need the help and suggestions -- not to mention the legal problems that could arise if'n they did implement someone's idea.

If you really want to get the idea out there, the best thing to do would be to discuss it here, have some lovely banter over your idea, then wait and see if Apple ever stumbles across the same idea. I'm tellin' ya, Apple will not listen to your idea. I hope that doesn't come across as mean -- it's just the way things are. Apple does not take outside ideas, period -- no exceptions -- not even if it's the greatest idea in the world.
